Brown Buffing Compound for Metal Finishing

The Dico 529-TC6-B is a brown buffing compound supplied in a 7.5 in clamshell. It is formulated for use on aluminium and brass surfaces. The product is intended for automotive and general metal finishing tasks where a consistent cut and shine are required. This item is new and ready for workshop use.

Clamshell Container Fits Standard Buffing Wheels

The compound measures 7-1/2 in by 3-11/16 in by 1-1/2 in and comes in a clamshell that protects the bar from contamination. It is designed to be applied directly to a rotating buffing wheel or pad mounted on a bench grinder or sander. The solid format eliminates the need for liquid dispensers and reduces mess during application. No additional hardware is included in the package.

Suited for Aluminium and Brass Polishing Jobs

This compound suits technicians and hobbyists who need a dedicated brown bar for non-ferrous metals. It is not intended for heavy stock removal on steel or for use with colour-specific compounds required for stainless steel or precious metals. Buyers who want a multi-metal kit or a liquid emulsion should look at alternative product types. The Proposition 65 notice applies to this item.
