Polish Up’s development and growth.

Taking into context how broad the polishing industry is, the enormous variety of cleaning – polishing products in the market place and how many different applications there are, we at Polish Up are excitedly looking to the future.

We know from experience that price, quality, customer service go hand in hand and contributes to our customer satisfaction.  (Loads of cliche’s sorry) Polish Up continually sources products both locally and abroad to give you that choice whilst not breaking your bank account. One of the main reason we remain internet based is to keep our overheads down.

You’ll notice the website has rather a small selection of kits and mops.  Over the next few weeks and months the range will be growing substantially. For example 3″, 4″, 6″ and 8″ mops, sisal, stitch, loose flap, swansdown all will be up and ready for sale.  We’re adding a number of accessories like 1/2″ and 5/8″ bench grinder spindle adapters, a larger tapered mandrel (Drill adapter to mount a mop on).  We’ll also have a selection of polishing kits with bench grinders to go.

Moving forward, we ask you to bear with us, help us grow, give us feedback on ways we can improve our website.  Give us ideas of new products that you feel would complement our range.  We’ll take it all on board and do our best to implement what we can.

Thanks for your support.  www.polish-up.com.au

Polish up on your networking

In todays world of cold calling, hard sell, door to door sales, website banners that interfere and irritate the living daylights out of us, it’s no wonder we find ourselves becoming a lot less tolerant with the whole selling concept, never mind being sold to.

It’s within this myriad of sales people rejections that some of us, if not most of  us depend on sales to keep us “alive”.  Being a business owner or working for someone, within each and every business/company there’s highly likely to be some form of selling. It’s what pays the bills.

Over the years I’ve personally found networking to be one of the most effective marketing tools around.  But it does take some effort – anything worth something is never easy to get – and taking that first step is usually the most challenging part of the whole process.

It’s so much easier being referred to someone as opposed to cold calling them.

Steps to take:

Look on the internet for a business network you can visit. (do some research as there is often a monthly/annual charge)

Arrange a visit and go, go prepared

Take lots of business cards and more importantly take a prepared 60 second spiel about your company as it’s highly likely you need to tell the group about your company and what you do. Within your 60 seconds after explaining who you are, what you do, tell the group what specific referrals are ideal for you, just a couple though, you don’t want to overload them.

Often you will be given a referral relating to your request, but if not, don’t be disheartened. Networking is about building up trust,  business relationships and friendships. It’s a process that needs to be “farmed” to be effective.

Your responsibility as an effective networker is to be consistent, reliable, trustworthy, helpful and mindful of other peoples needs within the group and out there in the business world.  Armed with this, your ears will prick up every time there may be an opportunity to create a referral – someone needs something, a loan, business coaching, car repaired etc – depending on the needs of your group.

In giving, you’ll gain, Someone once said “if you give everyone what they want, you can have anything you want”.

Polish Up won’t be cold calling you but we will be networking with you.  Take a look at our polishing products and refer us. Have a good week.

Distinguishing between ferrous and non ferrous metals.

Knowing what metal you are polishing will help you choose which mopscompounds and polishing kits to use. Herewith some clarification.
All metals can be classified as either being Ferrous or Non-ferrous.

Ferrous metals contain iron and sometimes have small amounts of other metals or other elements added to give a required property. They are magnetic and give little resistance to corrosion. These metals are Mild Steel, high speed steel, stainless steels, high tensile steels, high carbon steels, medium caron steels and cast iron.

Non ferrous metals do not contain any iron, are not magnetic and are generally more resistant to corrosion than ferrous metals. Aluminium, Aluminium alloys, copper, brass, lead, zinc, tin and gilding metal.

A pure metal consists of a single element or atom type. Common pure metals are:-aluminium, copper, iron, lead, zinc, tin, silver and gold.

Alloys are a mixture of two or more metals. For example, pure white aluminium is very soft and ductile. Other elements are added to create an aluminium alloy. The aluminium alloy is stronger than Mild Steel, has an improved strength and is resistant to corrosion while still remaining very light.

And there you go. I hope this helps. www.polish-up.com.au

A general introduction to buffing and polishing of metals.

Ever wonder how the polishing process works using polishing wheels, mops or buffs with compounds?. Take the hard yards out of physically doing it by hand, you can use a drill machine, bench grinder or a polishing/sander type machine.

Broadly speaking: You have various types of polishing mops ranging in many shapes and sizes depending on what you would like to polish. Examples to name a few – sisal, white stitch, colour stitch, loose flap, swansdown etc.

Polishing compounds with varying abrasives capabilities are an important component of this process and when applied to the relevant mop enhances the polishing task.  These compounds consist of a wax substance mixed with different abrasive powders. 

Like sand paper and water paper, you use various “grits” as it were, to remove scratches and then a finer “grit” for a brighter finish.

Whilst the polishing mop is rotating on the machine, the compound is applied. Due to the friction of the compound on the wheel, the wax melts and the abrasive and wax form a thin film on the wheel surface. It is this spinning surface that cuts away at the blemishes. The heavier the “grit” and the harder the mop, the stronger cutting capabilities whilst the finer “grit” with a softer mop gives a brilliant shine.

You’ll find that various metals and surfaces require different buffs and compounds because their condition, hardness or softness, shape and size may vary. An important point in purchasing a polishing kit, for example is first – what are you polishing, second – what machine you have to do the job with and third – do you have the spindle adaptor or mandrel for attaching the mops?

Have a look at our range at www.polish-up.com.au and see which polishing kit, buff, mop or compound will best suit your polishing need.
