Its abrasive formulation helps reduce oxidation, dullness, light scratches and other surface imperfections while preparing the metal for a cleaner and more professional finish. The solid compound uses a wax-based binder that allows the polishing material to transfer conveniently onto a rotating buffing wheel. Suitable for automotive, jewellery, construction, manufacturing and general DIY applications, it is an excellent choice for workshop restoration, decorative metal finishing and routine maintenance work.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"definition-products\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBalanced cutting action for non-ferrous metal restoration\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eRCC 20-AB provides a useful balance between material removal and surface refinement.
