All I can say is thank you, what a resource. 390,000 products:- Everything from light-bulbs to urinals, o-rings to platform trucks!!! I have spent a couple of hours looking at all the different forms of polishing materials and buffing devices. I will definitely try them out. Intrigued by the little ultrasonic bath - has anyone used one of these for cleaning small parts? just curious!
