Impregnations

The choice of the most appropriate impregnations is determined by the application, the requirements of our customers and our experience.

The correct impregnation increases longevity of the buff and enhances the polishing effect. This in turn results in cost savings on polishing buffs and compounds. A 50-100% increase in longevity is possible. All our impregnations are environmentally friendly.

Through the years of experience and continuing innovation we have developed a number of exceptional impregnations, with varying properties: fat content, stickiness, softness or high density, as can be seen below.
