Polishing Compound

Featured Replies

I have a host of items needing polishing in different metals. However I have run out of "bars of chocolate" to use with my polishing rig.

Does anybody know where I can get a new supply of compound?

No, he is looking for stick rouge to be used with high speed buffing wheels. I have a distributor in Thailand somewhere, PM me next week and I will dig out their card. They are located in BKK but I think they have a place in Chiang Mai. They have the full range, from high wax chinese junk to the really sweet German made black rouge.

Hah! Brasso! Great stuff, but I think p1p is eluding to "buff sticks" which come in different colours and grades, for ferrous and non-ferrous metal polishing.

North side of the klong on the outside, there is a great machine tool suppliers that has them. In fact he stocks some great quality tools as well, for general machining.

Now as for location....Hummmm...I'll have to do a "Ta22" here. Near Chang Puak Gate on the left had side as you look at one of the small sois. I'll leave out the bit of..."if you want details..PM me" :o as it won't help.

If I drive by tomorrow, I'll post a slightly more precise location :D

Erasers work fine without the ink too....also...did you know that rice hulls are used as an abrasive too..but it is a rather coarse one from what I understand.

Also, tooth paste is a polish/abrasive and different brands have different degrees of fineness and abrasive content.

Toothpaste is very good, but it doesn't stick to the buffing wheel. :o

whahhah let see.. tooth paste is good .

Problem

can't stick to buffer machine ..

Solution

Add super gule to your tooth paste

whahahahahhahahahahhahaha i am sure it will stick VERY well :o

whahahahahahhahahahahhaha

seriously the soft grey like compund act like a luby agent for the buffer and cos is fine it can polish the suface .

the trick is work from rough grade compound and slowly move to extra fine one ..

to get a good polish usually it take at least 3 compound of different grading .

:D
