Polishing Compound Dark Grey
Polishing Compound Dark Grey – First Stage Rough Cut – 5220-5
The Dark Grey Polishing Compound is a first-stage rough cutting compound designed to remove scratches, abrasive belt marks and surface imperfections from metal surfaces during the initial stages of polishing.
Used with compatible polishing mops and buffing wheels, this compound provides a coarse cutting action to prepare metal surfaces for subsequent polishing and finishing stages.
Ideal for stainless steel fabrication, metal restoration and general workshop polishing applications, the dark grey compound is suited to initial surface preparation where scratches and belt sanding marks need to be reduced or removed before progressing to finer polishing compounds.

Specifications
Product Code: 5220-5
Product Type: Metal Polishing Compound
Colour: Dark Grey
Grade: Rough Cut
Polishing Stage: First Stage
Application: Scratch Removal, Belt Mark Removal and Initial Surface Preparation
Equipment: Compatible Polishing Mops and Buffing Wheels
How to Use
Apply the compound to a compatible rotating polishing mop or buffing wheel according to the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
Work the metal surface during the initial rough cutting stage to reduce scratches, belt marks and other surface imperfections. The level of removal will depend on the material, depth of the marks and polishing method.
Once the required surface preparation has been completed, progress to a suitable finer cutting or finishing compound.
Important: Rough cutting compounds remove material and may alter the existing surface finish. Test on an inconspicuous area before use and ensure the compound and polishing mop are suitable for the material.
When polishing stainless steel, use dedicated polishing mops to minimise the risk of cross-contamination from other metals.
