"Wax on wax off" Thanx man. So you don't use a buffing wheel on a bench grinder? I pretty much just need to get some burnt gloves off my left pipe. As there shinny enough as is, except the glove part. Quote

Everytime I get some melties on the TR6's it takes about 5-10 minutes to get the melted parts off then I do the whole lot. Oh and stand the bike on it's end so you can get into the parts underneath. best stuff ever. Quote

My bike is all apart and the pipes are on the bench so it will be easy to get them all cleaned up i bet. Thanx Quote

It works smoothly and softly without gouging or digging into the work surface.

They come in Coarse, Medium, and Fine grit ($0.95each)and use 1/4" mandrels and we also have an 1/8" mandrel. we also sell felt buffs (bullet shaped $16.50 per pkg of 10 or $1.70 each)and polishing compounds ($2.00 each). We also sell simi-chrome polish ($10.50 per 3/4 oz tube or $25.90 a 1/2# can).
