When objects being buffed have sharp edged, projections or recessed areas, a raking action against the face of the mop may occur and the Lea Compound head wears away prematurely. This raking action can be reduced with the use of adhesive on the mop prior to heading with Lea Compound.

Many polishing operations formerly done with set-up wheels and which take a great deal of time to prepare, can be handled more speedily and economically with adhesive and Lea Compound. Heavy abrasive heads are easily applied to the mop and are easy to renew with Lea Compound.
