Abstract: A self-contained fibrous buffing article comprising at least one layer of a fibrous nonwoven fabric comprising lyocell fiber and having a hardened adherent coating comprising a crosslinked binder, abrasive particles, and a lubricant.
Abstract: A nonwoven fabric polishing roll having a through hole into which a rotating shaft of a polishing machine is inserted, that includes a polishing portion formed by stacking a plurality of circular nonwoven fabrics having an aperture that forms the through hole; and two circular support plates located one at each of both ends in the stacking direction of the polishing portion, having an aperture that forms the through hole, and having an external diameter that is substantially the same as that of the circular non-woven fabric; wherein, the circular support plates include nonwoven fabric that is hardened in a compressed state.
Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus and a method for aging a stone, preferably an artificial stone. The aging device comprises a rotary support operatively connected to a rotary shaft, at least one abrasive tool mounted to the rotary support for roughing and/or polishing a surface of the artificial stone when the rotary support is brought into functional contact with said surface, and biasing means that biasingly connect the abrasive tool to the rotary support. The biasing means urge the abrasive tool away from the rotary support while allowing the same to move toward the rotary support when the rotary support is brought into functional contact with the surface of the artificial stone, thereby allowing the abrasive tool to follow a surface profile of the artificial stone while roughing and/or polishing its surface.
Abstract: A rotary buffer for buffing and polishing concave surfaces. The rotary buffer includes a malleable cone, a cone shaft, and a mounting shaft. The mounting shaft is configured to be received in a chuck of a rotary power tool. The cone and cone shaft work in conjunction with one another to absorb impact from a surface being buffed and polished and to prevent the rotary buffer from bouncing.

Abstract: An automatic vehicle washing apparatus which includes a wash mechanism and at least one wash strip having one end fixed to the wash mechanism. An exterior surface of the wash strip is formed from a microfiber fabric having fiber filaments of less than 1.00 denier. Preferably, the microfiber fabric encloses a sponge. Most preferably, the microfiber fabric includes between 70% and 80% polyester and between 20% and 30% polyamide.
Abstract: A finishing unit for a vehicle surface treatment apparatus composed of a thin sheet-like pad of material having flexible characteristics, the pad being adapted for contact with a vehicle surface. A buffer member of flexible material is also provided and opposes a surface area on the pad. A stiffening structure is oriented over a majority of the opposing surface areas of the buffer member and the pad to effect a fixed securement of the opposing surface areas together so as to provide an area of substantially less flexibility than the individual flexibility characteristic of each of the buffer member and the pad.
Abstract: Polishing disk with short fiber pile layer with strong binding in a holding layer. A burr adhesion layer is installed on the back side of the polishing disk.
Abstract: A drying sleeve is provided for a handle, such as a sports equipment handle. The drying sleeve has an open end, a closed end and an inner surface that define a cavity. An absorbent material and a containment material cover the majority of the inner surface to permit insertion and drying of the handle. A substantially moisture-proof outer cover covers the sleeve.
