| Powder compound details | Description | An aggressive, coarse, concentrated, abrasive compound, used on harder metals for grinding, radiusing and the removal of heavy machine marks and burrs. Used with an abrasive media. It leaves the surface of components with a shotblast appearance. | It is a fast cutting compound for heavy deburring and combined with cleaning agents and is mainly used for ferrous components, brass cuttings and pressings. It leaves the surface with a matte finish. | It is a medium abrasive compound and is combined with cleaning agents. | It is a light deburring compound combined with cleaning agents for fine surface finishing of all materials, but mainly used on soft metals like zinc, brass or aluminium. It can also be used to bring back the surface on ceramic media which is contaminated. | It is a light grinding compound for cutting down and polishing and contains an extremely fine abrasive, which during the process breaks down into a slurry. This assists the polishing ingredients to impart a polished surface. | This is used for cutting and polishing of non-ferrous metals and contains a soft abrasive with polishing agents. | It is used for polishing copper and its alloys with non abrasive media. A silky foam lather is built which enhances the polishing process. |
