Satin and polish finishing
Satin, matte and polished finishes are the last step before the part ships. We help you pick the non-woven disc or belt, or polishing disc, that gets the look you want on your machine.

Why it matters
The finish is what the customer sees. Consistent grain, an even matte surface or a true polish all come from picking the right pattern and grade for the job.
Non-woven tools blend pre-grinding marks gently. Felt polishing discs, with polishing compound, take surfaces up toward a mirror finish.

Common questions
How do I get a linear brushed look?
Non-woven belts produce a consistent linear grain. Disc tools give a more uniform matte pattern.
Can I reach a mirror finish?
Yes, with a felt polishing disc and the right polishing compound, after the surface has been prepared with finer non-woven grades.
