How do I know when to use a buffing wheel rake?
Maintaining your buffing wheel's performance requires using a rake when there's excessive compound, less aluminum dust, or a silver shine on the wheel. Raking removes excess compound and restores the wheel's effectiveness. Regular raking, combined with fresh compound application, ensures consistent results. Look out for these signs during your metal polishing routine to know when to rake.
How should a buffing wheel rake be used?
Using a buffing wheel rake properly is pretty straightforward. Begin by running the buffing wheel at its regular speed. Next, the rake should be securely placed against a stationary object such as a bench grinder or lathe. If you're using an angle grinder, extra caution is necessary to avoid accidents. This technique will allow you to remove any compound buildup and soften the edges of the wheel without causing any damage.
