Month: September 2010

Polish Up has very exciting times ahead of it especially for our customers. In the next couple of weeks (Commencing 30-09-10) we will have FREE SHIPPING to anywhere in Australia on a number of our kits and accessories.  Each of the chosen kits will have a red star like this:

So what does this mean exactly? Take into consideration the cost of shipping. As an example a kit costing $35.00, weighing about 1kg would cost you approximately $12.00 to ship making the total cost $47.00. That’s 25% of the value give or take.

You’ll save 25%.

Here are a couple of the upcoming promotions:

4 inch 2 section 6 piece kit

6 inch 2 section 17 piece kit

8 inch 2 section 17 piece kit

Keep an eye open for the great deals we’ll have for you.  As always if there is any information you would like regarding this deal, don’t hesitate to Contact Us.

With a remarkably good start to the spring season, Polish Up is experiencing exceptional growth in polishing kit sales. Due to our competitively priced, well placed products our customers, thankfully, are coming back for more.

Thanks to the increased product range, which by the way is growing continually, it seems to be providing that element of variety lacking in the current market.

Our alloy wheel kits head the field followed by our multi purpose variable speed grinder and drill polishing kits.  Following with a very close third are the bench grinder kits.  We can put this down to the warm spring weather (we assume this) as more enthusiasts come out of the woodwork and hibernation, cleaning up those bikes, trucks and cars.

A few of you have asked for more specific kits to be placed on the site and as promised, we have a few kits you’re going to love.

Our jewelery kits will also be coming on line and as some of you may have noticed we now have swansdown mops from 2″ up to 8″.  For the finer things in life.

Polish Up is also going to be rolling out comprehensive bench grinders kits where it will be a one stop shop.  We’ll also have drill kits complete with their kits.  At a later stage variable speed angle grinders and polishers will be on show and we’ll have a selection of polishing buffs to go with them.

So all is bright eyed and bushy tailed.  We look forward to a terrific spring season and an even more wonderful summer.

Here’s what is exciting about sharing ideas with others: If you share a new idea with ten people, they get to hear it once and you get to hear it ten times. Jim Rohn

There is a huge selection of polishing mops or wheels that we could discuss, but today this blog is going to be about sisal, colour stitch, white stitch, loose flat cotton and swansdown.

First of all explaining the dimensions as sold by Polish Up:

Ex: 4″ x 1″ (2 section) polishing mop

4″ or 100mm is the diameter of the mop. The common diameters we sell are 2″, 3″, 4″, 6″ and 8″. We can supply larger sizes on request.

1″ (2 section) is the thickness.  A section is approximately 12.7mm. The more sections the thicker the mop. In this case 2 sections making an inch. 1 section would be 1/2″.

Explaining some of the different types of mops:

Sisal Mop – consisting of cloth layers and sisal layers stitched together to the desired thickness, these buffs are suitable for the preparation of polishing surfaces with excellent cutting power when used together with a suitable  compound.

Colour Stitch and White Stitch Mops – Versatile grades of polishing mop, similar to each other. The white stitch is slightly softer than the colour stitch. Good for a polishing operation where you need brightness back when the condition of the metal is not marked/scratched or badly pitted. These can be used to cut as well with a compound but are less aggressive than sisal.

“B” Mops – Are a very popular grade of finsihing mop. with 100% cotton discs these are a harder grade of loose mops commonly used as an alternative to white stitch mops and very popular for precious metals and final polishings to various metals.

Swansdown WDR Mops – A very soft grade of finishing mop. WDR means “white double raised” and these mops are also know as Swansdown mops. Generally used for soft precious metals, jewelery etc in the final finish.

An ideal set of polishing mops would consist of one of each especially the sisal, stitch and “B” mops.

Depending on what metal you are polishing, a compound combination would be the next step in your polishing kit choice – but that will be in another blog coming soon.

I hope you’ve found this informative, have a good week – www.polish-up.com.au
