Their tapered and compact design allows for polishing of intricate and angled surfaces such as wheel windows and the area between wheel spokes. 1/8" Foam Polishing Bits: 5 Pack After attaching these polishing bits to a multi-tool, drill, or any machine that can accepts a 1/8" bit and pair it with a liquid metal polish (such as our Renegade Red Liquid Metal Polish) and apply to the desired areas as shown below: *Prior to starting your drill or machine, it is important to insert the loaded bit into the wheel/project surface as shown below. this will help to minimize slinging and the deformation of the bit at high speeds that may cause it to blow apart.* **NOTE THAT THESE BITS SHOULD NOT BE RUN AT ANY SPEED HIGHER THAN 2500 RPM.** SEE THE VIDEO BELOW FOR PROPER USE GUIDELINES: The machine should be run at mid-speed while being used to coat and polish the windows of the wheel.

The video below offers more insight on how these helpful polishing bits should be used: Pro Tips: Lower RPM for polishing — prevents heat buildup, swirl marks, or burning softer metals like aluminum. Higher RPM for cutting — works well for initial scratch removal or blending. Always check the manufacturer’s max RPM rating — exceeding it can cause the pad to tear apart. If you’re using compounds, slower speeds often give better results for final shine.
