Compound-Friendly Surface
Accepts rouge, tripoli, chromium oxide, diamond paste, and all-purpose polishing bars, delivering efficient cut-to-polish transitions.
Low-Vibration, Cooler Polishing
Balanced construction minimizes chatter and heat, protecting delicate edges, thin parts, and high-value finishes.
Versatile, Shop-Proven Performance
Excellent on stainless and carbon steel, brass, bronze, aluminum, copper, titanium, plastics (acrylic, ABS, PC), cured finishes on wood, resin castings, glass edges, and stone accents.

How to Use (Quick Start)
Mount Securely: Select the correct arbor/mandrel and ensure the wheel runs true before loading compound.
Charge the Wheel: Lightly apply your chosen polishing compound to the spinning felt—aim for an even, thin film.
Dial In Speed: Start at moderate RPM; increase only as needed to maintain a cool work surface.
Polish with Light Pressure: Let the compound do the work. Use controlled passes to refine scratches and build gloss.
Refresh as Needed: Re-apply compound when cutting slows. Dress (rake) the wheel lightly if glazing appears.
Final Wipe: Clean the workpiece with a soft cloth to remove residual compound.
Pro Tips for a Mirror Finish
Work in Stages: Begin with a slightly more aggressive bar (e.g., tripoli) for cut, then switch to rouge or chromium oxide for mirror.
Avoid Cross-Contamination: Dedicate one wheel per compound. Mark or color-code wheels for consistency.
Keep It Cool: Excess pressure = heat and swirls. If parts warm up, reduce pressure/RPM.
Mind the Edge Direction: Present edges so the wheel rotates off sharp corners to avoid grabbing.
Dress Regularly: Truing the face restores flatness, exposes fresh fibers, and keeps finish quality high.
Safety & Best Practices
Wear eye protection and a dust mask/respirator when needed. Tie back hair and avoid loose clothing.
Verify maximum safe RPM for the wheel size and tool; never exceed ratings.
Secure small parts in a fixture, vise, or holder to maintain control.
Use separate wheels for ferrous vs. non-ferrous metals to keep finishes clean and bright.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which compound should I use for stainless mirror finishes?
A: After any necessary cut with tripoli, finish with green chromium oxide or white rouge for a crisp, mirror-like luster.
Q: Can these wheels polish acrylic without haze?
A: Yes—use plastic-safe compounds, light pressure, and moderate RPM. Finish with a clean wheel and fine compound for a water-clear edge.
Q: How do I stop the wheel from loading up?
A: Use less compound, keep the surface clean, and dress the wheel lightly to open fresh fibers.
Q: Are felt wheels good for knife stropping?
A: They excel at bevel/face polishing. For apex stropping, many prefer leather on a flat strop; use felt wheels for the broader faces.
Q: What tools can I run these on?
A: Rotary tools, flex-shafts, drills, bench buffers, and grinders—as long as arbor size and RPM ratings match.
