Polishing Compounds Vs Greaseless Compunds
Can someone tell me why use Greaseless Compounds for restoring SR and not Polishing compounds other then the larger, softer amounts for Greaseless ?

I like them both, the grease makes them stick good so the paste can do it's job without have to be reapplied all the time,
but, and at home it is a big but, they are a pita to clean off.
Ultrasound and 80 deg C ammonia is good to have around.
I haven't found any greaseless that sticks as good as the greasy type.
There is some new ones that are oilbased that cleans off with normal wash up liquid.Hur Svenska stålet biter kom låt oss pröfva på.

The buffing compounds are for shining up the steel, they are not going to remove steel from the blade. The greasless are much more aggressive and are used to remove steel. Originally Posted by DaveN

Well, I got them both in all grits, some are quite aggressive, I guess it depends were you shop and what they have. Originally Posted by mainaman

What grit ratings are your buffing compounds? Black emery, white rogue etc?Neil Miller likes this.Stefan
