Description

Give your next small project a spectacular finish quickly and easily with this set of three 8″ diameter buffs, compounds and a quick-change adapter. Whether you’re polishing an oil finish on a box, buffing the scratches out of a turned bowl or platter, or finishing pen blanks, this system will leave a glass smooth surface on whatever you hold to it. The secret to the system is that the dozens of soft cloth layers apply compound evenly without rounding over sharp features and edges. The wheel actually splays out slightly to conform to the shape being buffed. The all-flannel tripoli buff will level out the finish and remove any scratches. The flannel/cotton mix white diamond buff takes out any remaining small scratches and begins to polish. The all-cotton carnauba wax buff yields a high gloss polish similar to a lacquer finish.

Changing buffs takes seconds with the quick-change adapter. It adjusts to fit 1/2″ or 5/8″ motor arbor shafts (1/2 HP or larger, 1725 RPM motor recommended). The optional #2 Morse taper mandrel enables you to use the buffs on the lathe (you’ll have to make a 1/4″-20 drawbar to hold it in place)The compounds will last for years when used moderately. Not for use in a hand-held drill. System includes: 3 buffs, quick-change adapter, 3 compounds and complete instructions.

FAQs

Does it work on all finishes or only certain types?

The Wood Buff system works best on cured finishes like lacquer, shellac, and some oils, but may be less effective on soft or uncured finishes. It’s ideal for achieving a smooth, high-gloss result on turned projects.

How long do the buffing wheels last?

Buffing wheels are durable and can last through many projects with proper care and occasional cleaning. Their lifespan depends on frequency of use, but they hold up well for regular finishing work.
