    Polish workpieces of any material. These bobs are made of felt, so you can pair them with your choice of buffing compound or lapping paste. Use bobs with a drill or grinder for bits and burs to polish small areas and hard-to-reach spots.
    Wool Felt—These bobs absorb and retain compounds better than synthetic felt bobs, so you don't need to reapply the compounds as often.
    Synthetic Felt—Made with synthetic fibers, these are more porous than wool bobs. Soft bobs are more compressible to squeeze into smaller spaces. Hard bobs dissipate more heat during aggressive polishing, so they last longer and won't damage workpieces.
    Soft—Create the finest finish and polish delicate materials.
    Medium—Balance removing material with leaving a smooth finish.
    Hard—For aggressive material removal.
    Extra Hard—The most aggressive material removal. These bobs are also good for hard materials.

    Eliminate the need for messy compounds while polishing hard metals. These bobs come embedded with diamond, the hardest abrasive we offer. They’re best for cutting into stainless steel, titanium, and other tough materials. Use them to polish small areas and hard-to-reach spots with a drill or grinder for bits and burs. Grit is approximate.
    Wool Felt—Softer than rubber, these bobs better conform to your work surface and prevent gouging. They're the best choice for final finishing steps.

    Polishing Bob and Compound Kits

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Buffing Kits. Polishing Bob and Compound Kits.
    Everything you need to polish small areas and hard-to-reach spots. These kits include polishing bobs in different shapes, sizes, and hardness ratings, along with buffing compounds. Use these bobs in a drill or grinder for bits and burs.
    Most buffing processes have two steps, cutting and coloring.
    1. Cutting removes scratches and surface imperfections.
    2. Coloring produces an even finish.
    Cutting/coloring compounds perform both steps at once.
    Wool Felt—These bobs absorb and retain compounds better than synthetic felt bobs, so you don't need to reapply as often.
    Medium—Balance removing material with leaving a smooth finish.
    Hard—For aggressive material removal.

    No-Mess Polishing Bobs for Soft Metals and Nonmetals

    Forget the mess—polish soft metals and nonmetals without compounds. These bobs are embedded with silicon carbide abrasive, which generates minimal heat to reduce material buildup. That makes them best for polishing soft materials prone to clogging, such as aluminum and plastic. All cut fast and with light pressure. Use them to polish small areas and hard-to-reach spots with a drill or grinder for bits and burs. Grit is approximate.

    No-Mess Polishing Bobs for Reciprocating Polishers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Polishing Bobs. No-Mess Polishing Bobs for Reciprocating Polishers, Rectangle with Bevel Tip.

    Rectangle with

    Bevel Tip

    Pop these rectangular bobs onto a reciprocating polisher to glide along flat surfaces—no messy compounds required. They're embedded with silicon carbide abrasive, which stays cool to prevent buildup. That makes them best for soft metals prone to clogging, such as aluminum. The abrasive also lets you cut fast without pressing hard. Their flat profile suits both large surfaces and straight, narrow spaces. The bobs have a beveled tip to polish on an angle. Grit is approximate.
    Polyurethane Rubber—Harder than neoprene and wool felt, these bobs hold their shape longer, even during heavy use.

    Polish delicate surfaces that are easily scratched, such as glass and ceramics, without messy compounds. These bobs are embedded with cerium oxide abrasive, which is less aggressive than other materials. They remove light scratches, scuffs, cloudy surfaces, and hard water etching. Polish small areas and hard-to-reach spots using a drill or grinder for bits and burs.
    Polyurethane Rubber—Harder than neoprene and wool felt, these bobs hold their shape longer, even during heavy use.

    Use your reciprocating polisher to polish flat surfaces on any material. Made of felt, you can pair these versatile polishing bobs with the buffing compound or lapping paste of your choice to get the best results for your specific material. With a flat profile, they're good for polishing large surfaces as well as squeezing into straight, narrow spaces. They also have a beveled tip to polish on an angle.
    Wool Felt—These bobs absorb and retain compounds better than synthetic felt bobs, so you don't need to reapply the compounds as often.
    Medium—Balance removing material with leaving a smooth finish.
    Hard—For aggressive material removal.
