Polishing Mops for Hand‑held Polishers and M10 Angle GrindersSisal Mop – Heavy Cutting & BurnishingIdeal for tougher work such as burnishing, cutting back, and flattening. The spiral‑stitched sisal layers create a firm, durable surface for strong, consistent polishing.Close Stitch Mop – Firm Pre‑PolishingMade from coloured cloth with tight stitching to produce a solid, controlled surface. Excellent for pre‑polishing and general polishing before the final finish.Loose Fold Mop – Soft Final FinishingUnstitched calico material provides a gentle touch for finishing and high‑shine polishing. The loose‑leaf design improves airflow, reduces heat build‑up, and gives excellent results on final buffing passes.CompatibilitySupplied with an M10 female thread, easily converted to M14 using an adaptor. Suitable for handheld rotary polishers and variable‑speed angle grinders when used at low speeds.Sizes AvailableWidths: 12″, 1″, 1.5″Diameters: 6″, 8″Versatile PerformanceEffective on both hard and soft materials, including metal, wood, and plastic.British Made QualityManufactured in the UK using high‑grade materials for long life, reliability, and consistent polishing results.Recommended Speeds & Safety AdviceUse at low speeds — polishing mops perform best below 3,000 RPM, helping prevent overheating, burning, or melting softer materials.Final finishing is usually done slower, around 1,800–2,200 RPM, for improved control and a cleaner shine.Soft metals (aluminium, brass) should be polished at lower, steady speeds to avoid distortion or heat damage.Hard metals (stainless steel, steel) can tolerate slightly higher speeds, but controlled RPM is still recommended.Plastics and composites require very low speeds to prevent melting.Avoid heavy pressure — let the mop and compound do the work.Always work below the centre line of the wheel to reduce the risk of the mop catching the workpiece.Variable‑speed tools are ideal, allowing you to match the speed to the material and polishing stage.
