    Tip

    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.

    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.
