Can I use these compounds on non-metal surfaces?

No, it is recommended only for use on metals.

How do I use these compounds?

Use with a polishing wheel by lightly pressing compounds against a rotating buffing wheel.

Is it easy to identify which compound to use?

Yes, each compound is color-coded for easy identification and use in order.

How hard is this stuff supposed to be? Why is it not coming off on buffing wheel for drill?

Buffing compounds are a wax base with a fine cutting abrasive mixed in. To use it, only a tiny amount of compound should be applied onto the wheel at a time. Medium pressure should be applied, and the compound should only be held on the wheel for a couple of seconds. To achieve the best results, work down in grits starting with a courser grit first followed by a finer grit.

Okay so my pieces are hard and when I add them to the buffing wheel, they literally crumble and don’t even go on the wheel. Why is that?

It could be that the polish bars are old and have hardened due to storage. In such cases, a few drops of water can be added to soften up the bars before using them.

How are these packaged? Do they come in some type of storage box/container? Any instructions?

No, these bars are not packaged in any particular container, and instructions are not provided with them. They are hard clay-type bars, and the color of each bar represents the grit of the clay bar. YouTube videos can provide all the necessary information needed to use these bars.

What’s the micron size of the abrasive in each bar?

The abrasive in each bar has an average micron size of 1 micron to 0.5 microns.

What is the best way to store the polish bars?

When not being used, the bars should be wrapped in plastic to keep them moist and prevent them from hardening due to exposure to air. However, these bars are quite resilient and can last for years even if kept unwrapped in a drawer.

How to apply? Can I use these with a dremel?

Yes, these bars can be used with any buffing tool, including a dremel. However, to achieve the best results, it is essential to match the polishing compound with the material being polished. For example, blue polish bars are meant for plastic and are very soft. To clean plastic, only a small amount of blue polish should be used along with a loose buff for final finish. If using a more robust buff wheel, the polish might not stay on for long.

Metal Polishing Compound kit 24Oz - 6Pc Buffing Compound Bars - 4Oz each, Set Includes: Red Jewelers Rouge, Black Aluminum Cutting Compound, Brown Tripoli, White Rouge All Purpose Blue & General Green

If you're looking for a polishing compound, Enkay's polishing compound is an excellent choice. It works well on various metals and can provide a mirror-like finish that is perfect for restoring old metal projects. However, it might not work well on other surfaces like polymers, so it's best to do a little research before using it. Make sure to use only a small amount at a time and work your way down in grits for best results. Although it can crumble easily if it's old, you can add a little water to soften it up. On the downside, the instructions are not included, and the packaging is not up to the mark. Overall, it's a high-quality product, made in the USA, at an affordable price that delivers what it claims.

Pros

Provides a mirror-like finish
Works well on various metals
A little goes a long way
Made in the USA
Affordable price

Cons

Does not work well on softer surfaces
Can crumble easily if it's old
No instructions included
Poor packaging
Might not be what you are expecting for the price
