Polishing Metal - Using An Bench Grinder
Ok, I have a bench grinder that I want to use to polish metal on.
Which company does the best buffing wheels and wax(?) and what grades do I need?
Also what technique to get the best result? (as in, little wax, heavy pressure on the hardest buffing wheel, lots of wax light pressure on softest
buffing wheel?)

Cheers for link.
Most parts I am looking at doing are curved rather than flat.
Flat I will use either my DA or Rotary.

I bought some buffing wheels for ours but im not sure from where now.
- You want a adapter from the the on the grinder (M14?) into a tapered thread. This will then take all the standard stitch-centered wheels. Or
atleast thats what i did. I got a fully stitched side sisal or calico wheel and a unstitch cotton mop for finishing. And thress grades on linishing
bar.
