Metal polishing compounds that come in a wax, paraffin-oil or grease-based block/bar are often referred to generically as 'jeweler's rouge'. Rouge is French for red, and jeweler's rouge is a specific type of polishing compound that contains ferrous oxides (which give it the red color) and is used most typically to polish precious metals. We offer several different compounds (including red jeweler's rouge!) that contain various natural minerals and particles that color the block - each formulated for a specific cutting, polishing or buffing effect. When using with power buffer or polisher on non-metallic surfaces like plastic, use caution to prevent friction heat from warping/deforming workpiece.
