Aluminium oxide: also called Alumina. It is a metallic oxide, the 2nd most abundant of the earth after silica. It is an odourless white powder insoluble in water. This metallic oxide is used for brushing, polishing as it has good cutting power and low shine.
Emeri is an abrasive that is used for abrasive strips and polishing pasta for example. It's a metamorphic rock composed mainly of corundum and spinel. This rock has been used since ancient times as an abrasive. (Metamorphism = all changes in a rock due to temperature and pressure conditions different from that in which it was formed). Used for its strong cutting power.
What is polishing, brushing and polishing pastes?
Polishing pastes: reduce the big brands associated with machining materials
Brushing paste: gloss preparation before polishing
Pâte à lustrer : finishing action allowing to shine for example.
Secure shipping for everyone: Sold in bread of less than one kilo to be used by professionals as well as individuals. The breads are sold in their original mould, ensuring a secure shipping.
Implementation advice: since this polishing paste is very oily, it applies with low pressure. Rotation of the disc will heat the bread and soften it to place a film on the disc.
