Choosing the Right Polishing Products

The appropriate polishing compound, abrasive grade or buffing wheel will depend on the material being worked on, its existing condition and the desired finish.

Coarser abrasives are generally used for initial surface preparation, while finer grades are used for lighter surface conditioning and finishing.

For machine polishing, ensure that polishing mops, spindles and accessories are compatible with the equipment being used, including thread direction, mounting requirements and operating speed.

Important: Always test polishing products on an inconspicuous area before use, particularly on polished or decorative surfaces. Abrasive products may alter the existing finish. When polishing stainless steel, use dedicated abrasives to minimise the risk of contamination.
