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.
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.
Neoprene—These bobs balance durability with flexibility. They last longer than felt bobs and conform to surfaces better than polyurethane rubber.

Skip the messy compounds—these bobs come embedded with aluminum oxide, the most common abrasive material. Best for polishing steel, they’re also a good all-purpose option for other materials when specialty bobs aren’t available. Use them to polish small areas and hard-to-reach spots with a drill or grinder for bits and burs. Grit is approximate.
Polyurethane Rubber—Harder than neoprene and wool felt, these bobs hold their shape longer, even during heavy use.
Neoprene—These bobs balance durability with flexibility. They last longer than felt bobs and conform to surfaces better than polyurethane rubber.
