Dico 230004D Greaseless Buffing Compound Medium Grade

Product Description

The DICO 230004D is a greaseless buffing compound formulated for use on metal surfaces. Medium grade abrasive compounds like this one are used to remove surface scratches, oxidation, and imperfections before finishing or polishing operations. The 3-pound container provides a substantial supply for shop use, bench grinding, or field applications. This compound is orange in color for easy identification in multi-compound setups. It is applied to buffing wheels or grinding wheels and is commonly used by machinists, fabricators, and finishing technicians working with metal components.

This compound is suited for metal surface preparation tasks in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and light industrial environments. Medium grade places it between cut compounds and fine finishing compounds, making it effective for intermediate material removal and surface refinement on steel, aluminum, and similar metals. It is a dry, greaseless formulation, which reduces smearing and residue compared to grease-based compounds.

Key Features

• Greaseless formulation reduces residue and cleanup time on metal surfaces
• Medium grade abrasive provides intermediate cut for surface refinement
• 3-pound container suitable for extended shop or field use
• Orange color allows quick identification when using multiple compound grades
• Designed for use on metal substrates including steel and aluminum

Compatibility

Designed for use on metal surfaces as an intermediate-grade buffing and grinding compound suitable for bench grinders, polishing lathes, and buffing wheel applications.

Installation Notes

Applied by pressing the compound block against a rotating buffing or grinding wheel at low contact pressure until the wheel is properly charged. Ensure the wheel is rated for the intended RPM before use and that all guards are in place. Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection and respiratory protection when buffing metal. Allow the wheel to come to a complete stop before changing compounds or wheels.
