    Buffing/polishing wheel

    A month ago....or so.... someone posted a picture of a polishing/ buffing wheel. I'm having a hard time finding the thread. I wanted to find out where they got it. looked like it would work real well. if anyone can find that thread and send it my way I would appreciate it.

    Thanks again for your help

    I bet it was "Dupa". Hopefully he will chime in. I've done some polishing but, he's the expert! I'll go search some old threads for you and see what I find.

    Thanks for the link. That is good info. I have a bench grinder wheel. I need to find something that will fit my arbor size (minimum 5/8). My RPMs are high too, but I may be able to make something work. This isn't the thead however, it had a picture of a wheel that had hair like strands that could get into crevices. I think the person said that they found it at a auto parts store.

    Hmmm...I don't know, but this method works, just need to decide what to get and where to find it.

    Thanks again

    Jimbo
