For details on how to use it, please search YouTube for "Shoichiro Ishizuka" and check the video that appears first, from 21:05 to 21:40. Also, search online for "ibota" and "scale insect." Details: This was collected in the late Showa era by Saburo Saito, a craftsman of Higashi scissors (also known as Kakusaburo). When the season came, Kakusaburo would seclude himself in a mountain hut to collect it and distribute it to other craftsmen. All items listed as "genuine polish" use the same ibota, so they can still be used even after more than 40 years. Chotaro and others mainly used a collection site along a certain river, where they had visiting sales, but they also used the ibota they received from Kakusaburo. Even the craftsmen agreed that there was no difference depending on the origin. I also use it for maintaining my collection of Higashi scissors. I wrap it in cloth to make a ball the size of a ping pong ball and tap it to release fine powder. Rubbing it with a soft cloth gives a unique luster and smoothness without being sticky. I've been using it for several years, and it doesn't rust and develops a unique color. It's a valuable item I received from a craftsman, but I have more than I can use, so I'm offering it in smaller portions.
