There are two different materials being marketed under the kaleidoscope moniker, one from Oregon, a predominately red and orange jasper, and one from Utah, which is not agate at all, but a mix of Fluorite in shades of blue/green/purple. I really feel that the folks selling the Utah stuff as "agate" are really doing a disservice to the lapidary community by not being upfront and telling people what it actually is.

I have a half finished dopped cab right now. Can’t testify to the polish since I haven’t made it that far but mine it’s crumbly.
