Emery compound in Dutch?

I just received my (tiny, cute) buffing wheel, but I clearly bought the wrong compounds. They are far too fine and remove almost no metal, very little discolouration of the wheels while buffing.

I suppose I need something like greaseless emery compound (am I right?), but I have no idea what that is called in Dutch. Any other suggestions for grinding/sanding/coarse polishing, as long as applicable to a buffing wheel, are very welcome as well!


By the way, I looked for slijppasta and found these: http://www.xtrack.nl/search/?searchstring=slijppasta but I'm not sure if those will work.

It contains silicon carbide, SiC, and will eat steel fine.
Then it's up to the binder/carrier, how good it sticks to the wheel.

It's called 'polijstpasta". A known brand in Europe used by many jewelers in 'Dialux'. That's for the rouges. Don't know about greaseless.

That could work. I can't find the instructions how to apply but I presume you just load up your buffing wheel.

I found a source for greaseless in Europe. The UK actually. Here's the link to Caswell Europe.

You can look by polijstweb.nl or http://www.polijstwinkel.nl. think they have the right stuff for you
Good luck

Thank you, guys! I think I might go with the link I found.

Considering I have 4 buffing wheels, which grits do you think I should take? Glen got excellent results with grits 80-600 and crox at http://straightrazorpalace.com/works...gold-wash.html, so I am thinking 100, 240, 400, 800 and hand/Dremel polishing with bottled polish to finish it up.

Well, I regret to say I should not have bought those Maxdorf compounds. I opened and used only the 100 grit to see what's what, but it's taking away almost no metal at all. Yes, the polish wheel turns very black, but the few scratches it makes on the razor I am working on are more comparable to 600+ grit sandpaper. In fact, I could finish a worked blade with this 100 grit compound and be very happy about the result, but I intended it for grinding away pitting.

I have tried for about 2 hours in total with very little result and will contact the seller for a refund, if possible. Seems I might have to go with the more expensive Formax shipped from England to the Netherlands as Maximillian suggested.
