Fantastic Finishing Kit!

This industrial and scientific engine turning kit is a must-have for metal finishing enthusiasts. The kit includes everything needed to create a professional-grade finish, including high-quality abrasive compounds, rotary tool attachments, and detailed instructions. The kit's affordability makes it a great value, ensuring that anyone can achieve professional results without breaking the bank. While the kit is excellent for finishing metal parts, it may not be suitable for plastics or other…

Pros
  • Easy to use and produces precise and consistent engine turning patterns on a variety of surfaces.
Cons

Superb Rubber Coated Abrasives

Cratex is a great company that has developed truly rubber coated abrasives. I have used them in the past for porting and polishing and needed an easy to use multi-abrasive kit to power the motor on various projects. This kit is perfect.

Pros
  • All 4 grits included Cratex
Cons
  • Crumple Pack
