Aluminum,
due to its grain structure, will tend to tear when being polished
or buffed. As a result, aluminum requires more frequent applications
of greasestick when polishing and a greasier than usual buffing
compound. The tearing effect is visible after buffing and
is referred to as drag lines due to its appearance.
These elongations are due to impurities imbedded in
the aluminum, which are “dragged” into the buffing
action.
Special abrasives and grease combinations have been developed
by JacksonLea for buffing aluminum castings and extrusions.
These products can help eliminate the drag lines and produce
the desired finish while eliminating the “blush”
that can occur during the anodizing of improperly buffed extrusions.
