Dico 7100052 Blue Plastic Buffing Compound

Product Description

The DICO 7100052 is a blue plastic buffing compound formulated for use on acrylic and hard plastic surfaces. It is a cut-grade compound, meaning it removes light scratches, oxidation, and surface defects before a finishing or polishing step. The blue colorant helps distinguish it from other compound grades on a workbench. At 1.1 pounds per package, it is a practical shop-size quantity for technicians and fabricators who work with plastic panels, covers, and enclosures on a regular basis.

This compound is suited for body shops, HVAC equipment fabricators, sign makers, and general tradespeople who need to restore clarity or remove surface damage from acrylic sheets, plastic housings, and similar hard plastic components. It is applied by hand or with a buffing machine pad and works best on smooth, rigid plastic substrates. It is not intended for soft or flexible plastics.

Installation Notes

Applied by a technician or fabricator using a clean foam or wool buffing pad, either by hand or with a variable-speed polisher. Clean the work surface thoroughly before application to avoid embedding contaminants. Work in a small section at a time and remove compound residue with a clean microfiber cloth before it dries. Follow the compound step with a finishing polish if a high-gloss result is required.
