Features
- Stitching is measured either in total concentric rows of sewing or the inches in space between each row of sewing
- Keep in mind, the tighter the the sewing, the more aggressive and tight the buffing wheel will polish
- Also, it can be advantageous to get a tighter sewing pattern since rows of sewing can be removed with a small knife allowing the user to always "loosen" the sewn buffing wheel and get a softer polish if needed
- These cotton sewn polishing wheels need to have compound applied while the buffing wheel is spinning
- Given their thicker and stout stack of cotton material sewn together, it's important to use a buffing wheel rake often if the compound somewhat solidifies during use on the end of the polishing wheel
- A hard tacky surface of compound that has built up can be indicative of a need to use a buffing wheel rake
