The BHA 15" Buffing Wheel Rake features a 4-1/2" long x 2" wide steel rake plate with 4 sets of teeth attached to an ergonomically designed double handle wooden shaft. This rake is designed to remove residual buffing compound from the buffing wheels to prolong each buffs useful life and maintaining consistent buffing action. You should use this buffing rake when too much compound is applied or the compound has hardened on the edges. To use this buffing rake simply run the polisher, pedestal grinder, or lathe at normal speed and carefully allow the rakes teeth to make contact with the spinning buff. This rake can be held with both hands or feet simultaneously for reduced operator fatigue and maximum safety. If using a hand-held polisher you can place the buff rake on the ground and use your feet to step on each handle, then run the buff on the rakes teeth to remove the compound.
When to Rake a Buff: When too much compound is applied to the buffing wheel it can harden and burn onto the edge of the buff. This reduces the efficacy of the buffing wheel and the rake is used to remove this compound build up. If you notice a significant decrease in the residual aluminum dust built up around the metal surface while building rake the buff and apply a small amount of compound.
