		Buffing Wheels Buffing Wheel # 36 Cushion sewn buffs have two or more circles of sewing between the arbor hole and the face, giving them a medium density. For light cutting and general finishing applications. The 4" wheel is to be used on a hand drill, do not use a cordless drill! The 6" is to be use on a bench grinder. An arbor is available for the 4" wheel to your drill! Buffing Wheel # 40 Spiral sewn buffs are fully sewn in a continuous spiral from the center to the face giving them a firm density. For coarse cutting action! The 4" wheel is to be used on a hand drill, do not use a cordless drill! The 6" wheel is to be used on a bench grinder. An arbor is available for your drill! Buffing Compounds / Rouge There are two different types of rouge for use on plastics. The first is a plastic rouge which is blue in color. It is for buffing hard plastics. Excellent for edge finishing of acrylic sheets. NOT for use on soft or low melting point plastics such as polyethylene. The second type is a white rouge. This rouge produces a brilliant high gloss finish on plastics. It is clean and greaseless and will not discolor. Important •Always wear a dust mask and safety glasses when buffing. •Work in a well ventilated area to avoid dust accumulation. •Always hold work below center of wheel. •Always hold work firmly. •For best results use only one composition per buff.

		Drill Bits NON-CHIPPING! These are specially ground flukes with a 90° point for drilling holes in acrylic plastics including, Plexiglas®, Lucite® and Acrylite® materials. Metal drill bits will not work as they are made to bite into the metal as they are pushed into it. If they are used on acrylics they will chip and cause other damage to the plastic. When drilling holes for screws, you must make the hole larger than the screw itself to allow for expansion and contraction of the material. If not you will cause stress cracks at the hole and they will spread! To purchase all Drill Bits, please visit our On-Line Store.


		Plastic Polishes We carry two different manufacturers of cleaning products, Novus® & Kleenmaster®! We recommend using these products to clean your acrylic products to extend the life of your acrylic products! NOVUS® #1 Gently cleans all plastics without scratching. Leaves a lustrous shine that resists fogging, repels dust and eliminates static! NOVUS® #2 Removes fine scratches, haziness and abrasions from most plastics. With repeated use, #2 restores faded and discolored plastics. NOVUS #3 Removes heavy scratches and abrasions from most acrylic surfaces. Use when damage is too severe to be restored with NOVUS® #2 polish! Kleenmaster's BRILLIANIZE®, is an anti-static cleaner and polish for plastics and shining surfaces!
