Wagner Precision Polishing Compound for metal, ceramic, and composite restorations

Final-Stage High-Gloss Finishing

Wagner Precision Polishing Compound is the final step in any metal finishing sequence. Applied with a muslin, felt, or rag buff wheel on a lathe or bench motor, it removes the fine scratches left by pre-polish silicone instruments and develops a true mirror surface on precious alloys, base metals, and chrome-cobalt frameworks. The compound is also effective for the final gloss step on ceramic and composite surfaces when used with an appropriate soft buff disc.

The abrasive specification is calibrated to remove sub-micron scratches without re-introducing coarser surface marks — ensuring a one-step path from pre-polished surface to finished mirror gloss.

  • Final high-gloss finishing for metal, ceramic, and composite restorations
  • Compatible with muslin, felt, rag, and chamois buff wheels
  • Sub-micron abrasive particle specification for true mirror surface
  • Works on bench lathe, lab motor, and rotary polishing tools
  • Consistent performance across precious, semi-precious, and base metal alloys
  • Extends the gloss achieved by preceding silicone polish instruments

Compatible Buff Wheel Types

  • Muslin wheel — most common for precious and semi-precious alloys
  • Rag wheel — chrome-cobalt and base metal frameworks
  • Felt disc — ceramic and composite surface buffing
  • Chamois wheel — final ultra-high gloss on precious metals

Application Technique

Apply compound to the buff wheel by briefly touching the bar to the spinning wheel at moderate speed. Do not over-apply — a light, even coating is sufficient.

Work the restoration surface with moderate pressure and even strokes. Wipe finished surface with a clean cloth to reveal final gloss.

The Final Step in Every Finishing Sequence

Polishing compound is most effective when used as the last step after a progressive series of abrasive instruments. The preceding steps do the heavy work; compound develops the final mirror surface.

Precious & Semi-Precious Metals

After silicone pre-polish, apply compound with a muslin or chamois wheel. Produces the mirror surface that showcases the inherent quality of high-gold and palladium alloys.

Base Metal & CrCo

Harder alloys respond well to compound on a rag or muslin wheel after hard-bond silicone pre-polish. Achieves a true mirror finish on NiCr and chrome-cobalt frameworks.

Ceramic Surfaces

For ceramic restorations where re-glazing is not available, compound on a soft felt disc provides the gloss step after SiC silicone pre-polish.

Composite

On indirect composites, compound with a soft buff disc completes the polishing sequence after the fine silicone step for a lasting high-gloss surface.
