Buffing and Polishing Compounds

Apply a layer of compound by holding one of these bars against a revolving buffing wheel. Microns are approximate.
Most buffing processes have two steps:
Cutting, the first step, removes scratches and surface imperfections.
Coloring, the second step, produces an even finish.
Cutting/coloring compounds perform both steps at once.
