Polishing Accessories
These include an impregnated polishing
point and an impregnated polishing wheel for
bringing metal sur faces to smooth finish; a
felt polishing tip and felt polish ing wheel, and
cloth polishing wheel, all used for polishing
plastics, metals, jewelry and small parts.
Also included in this group is a polishing
compound (No. 421) for use with the felt and
cloth polishers.
Polishing points make a very smooth
surface, but a high luster is obtained using
felt or cloth wheels and polishing compound.
For best results polishing accessories
should be used at speeds not greater
than 15,000 RPM.
No polishing compound is needed when
using the 425 Polishing Wheel.
