These include an impregnated polishing point
and an impregnated polishing wheel for
bringing metal surfaces to smooth finish; a felt
polishing tip and felt polishing wheel, and
cloth polishing wheel, all used for polishing
plastics, metals, jewelry and small parts.

but a high luster is obtained using felt or cloth
wheels and polishing compound.
For best results polishing accessories
should be used at speeds not greater than
15,000 RPM. Refer to Operating Speeds
section for proper tool speed setting.

sanding jobs. You replace the sanding bands
on the drum as they become worn and lose
their grit. Bands come in fine and coarse
grades.
