LBUFFSYS 3-Step Lathe Buffing System for Woodworkers

This unique lathe-mounted polishing system offers a fantastic three-step buffing process, allowing you to achieve a beautiful and durable wax finish on your woodworking projects. The system includes a set of three 8-inch fabric buffing wheels, a Tripoli bar, a White Diamond bar, a Carnauba Wax bar, and a mandrel that securely holds the three buffing wheels.

The heavy-duty 14-inch polishing mandrel is supported by a live center in the tailstock and driven by a #2 MT in the headstock spindle, ensuring a stable and efficient polishing experience. This system requires a lathe with a minimum of 1/2 HP, making it suitable for a wide range of workshop setups.

The three-step buffing process begins with a Tripoli buff (linen wheel), followed by a White Diamond buff (linen/flannel wheel), and concludes with a Carnauba wax application (flannel wheel). This sequence creates a final finish that is remarkably similar to multiple coats of lacquer, but with a softer and much deeper appearance.

For best results, it is recommended to pre-treat your workpiece with Danish Oil before commencing the buffing process. This step helps to enhance the overall durability and finish of your project.

Replacement wheels and buffing compound bars are available for this system, ensuring that you can maintain and extend the life of your polishing setup. The available replacement components include:

• Tripoli: Bar (LBUFFX1) & Linen Wheel (LBUFFW1)
• White Diamond: Bar (LBUFFX2) & Linen/Flannel Wheel (LBUFFW2)
• Carnauba Wax: Bar (LBUFFX3) & Flannel Wheel (LBUFFW3)

This three-step polishing system enables you to buff your woodturning projects directly on your lathe by mounting the included #2 Morse Taper mandrel in your lathe's headstock. The system's versatility and ease of use make it an excellent choice for both hobbyist and professional woodworkers, allowing them to achieve a stunning and long-lasting wax finish on their creations.

In summary, this fantastic three-step buffing system provides a user-friendly and efficient way to elevate the appearance and durability of your woodworking projects. With its high-quality components and thoughtful design, you can be confident in achieving professional-grade results every time.
