Cone Polishing Pad The Cone Polishing Pad is a cotton buffing and polishing wheel designed for high performance and durability during metal restoration. Because it can get into all of the nooks and crannies, that conventional buffing wheels or pads cannot, it's the perfect tool for hard to reach surfaces. Its tapered design allows for polishing of angled surfaces such as wheel windows. To use the cone polishing pad, just attach it to a drill, add some liquid metal polish (such as our Renegade Red Liquid Metal Polish) and apply to the desired areas in a linear motion. *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.* 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.
