Bring your old parts back from the dead with a Pryme V2 cleaning wheel. Cleans and brightens metals such as aluminum, steels, titanium, brass, and others. These wheels make the process of restoration too much fun, don't be afraid to stock up so you don't run out!
This wheel is similar to the original fine cleaning wheel, but has been improved upon. It still produces an excellent brushed shine, but lasts twice as long and is available in a wider width for a more consistent finish.
- Mounts on a bench grinder / buffing machine
- 6" diameter
- Available in 1" wide
- Comparable to 400 grit sandpaper
- Achieves a brushed type finish, use the Rough Wheels or Flap Wheels for scratch removal and material shaping
- Works great for paint preparation too
- Best for aluminum, but can be used on steel, stainless steel, and brass with great results (steel and brass must be coated afterwards to prevent rust and corrosion).
- Available for 1/2" (12.7mm), 5/8" (16mm), and 3/4" (19mm) buffer shaft sizes
- Max RPM: 3600
- Sold individually, or in packs of 3, 5, and 10 to save you some cash!
- Use a wider wheel for larger, more open parts and use thinner wheel for parts that have tighter areas

These wheels are designed to be used on a buffing machine or bench grinder. They can be used on a machine with a 1/2", 5/8", or 3/4" shaft. For a buffing machine, you'll want at least a 1/2 HP motor that spins at 3000 RPM. One with an extended shaft is best, so you have lots of clearance to buff your parts. If you'll be doing lots of buffing, opt for a 3/4 HP motor.

Whenever you're doing any sort of grinding or sanding you'll want to use eye and respiratory protection. Trust us, you do not want to be breathing in metal particles! At the bare minimum, wear a dust mask and glasses.
A great product for protecting yourself is this respirator Click Here
Alternatively, this is also a great respirator to pair up with safety glasses Click Here
Use these filters with the previously mentioned respirators Click Here
If you're doing lots of buffing, it's recommended to get some sort of ventilation like this exhaust fan that we use Click Here
Installation
- Secure wheel to buffer shaft with a flange on either side. On some wheels, you may have to spin the wheel to help it onto the shaft on the larger 5/8" and 3/4" shaft sizes.
- Tighten down the nut until the wheel is secure on the shaft and doesn’t spin (use a spacer if your nut bottoms out on the threads).
Buffing
- Remove as much grease, oil, and dirt as you can before using the wheels, so you’re not contaminating them.
- Sand or buff in the same direction if you’re going for a brushed look. Intersecting scratches do not look good.
- Try to buff evenly across the part so you don't end up with dips or low spots.
- Use light pressure with the wheel or you'll wear it out prematurely. If you need to apply heavy pressure, you should go to a more aggressive wheel. Refer to buffing chart below.
- In order to make the wheels last as long as possible, stay away from sharp edges. The direction of the wheel should be spinning away from an edge and not towards it. Adjust the orientation of the part accordingly.
- The sweet spot to buff on the wheel is between 4 and 5 o’clock. Look at your buffing machine from the left side, and picture where 4 and 5 o’clock are on the wheels. That is where you will want the part to touch the wheel when buffing.
- Refer to the buffing chart below for the proper wheels to use with each metal type, as well as the steps to achieve the desired finish.
- If you have problems achieving a good finish, refer to the troubleshooting guide below.
- Always wear a dust mask or respirator and eye protection while buffing!
After Buffing:
- A clear ceramic coating will protect your part after buffing.
- Steel and magnesium parts must be protected with a coating, bare steel will rust quickly and magnesium corrodes in a matter of hours. Stainless steel and aluminum can be left bare without corrosion issues, as long as you keep the parts clean and out of the weather during storage.
- To achieve a consistent brushed look on larger parts, finish it by hand with a hand pad, going in the same direction you were buffing in.

Customer Reviews
Originally I tried off the shelf 3M wheels and they did not work at all. After seeing these mentioned in a video by MXRevival, I bought the full kit and am fully impressed. They part finish is excellent, the wheel is lasting a long time, minimal pressure is required, it doesn't try to grab the part and pull it from my hands. This is an all around game changing tool.
Thanks for sharing your feedback on the wheels Joshua! It's great to hear they've made a difference for you. Looking forward to doing business with you again in the future!
Installed this wheel on my variable speed grinder. Placed on lowest RPM to avoid putting heat into the work piece. Took about 1/8 inch off the wheel to do these two pieces which were heavily rusted.
