Vibra-Glo industrial finishing compounds: their role in the Vibra Finish process

Vibra Finish sells various Vibra-Glo products.

Vibra Finish has mastered every aspect of the metal-finishing process – including cleaning, polishing, smoothing, and deburring – making it Ontario’s go-to source for industrial finishing. But the company’s services extend to selling a variety of media, compounds, and other materials to help customers with private finishing applications. The Vibra Finish inventory includes more than 15 types of Vibra-Glo industrial finishing compounds for various applications, from burnishing to rust removal.

Cleaning, polishing, and smoothing surfaces

Vibra-Glo industrial finishing compounds play an important role in the finishing process. Users apply finishing compounds together into a system with water and media, and the machine’s sliding or tumbling action causes the compounds to clean, polish, and smooth the surfaces of the metal parts.

In addition, Vibra-Glo compounds come in liquid form and are used with water in various finishing processes. These compounds are formulated with properties that are tailored specifically for use in either tumbling barrels or vibratory systems.

These compounds are designed for finishing in vibratory machines, which are usually relied upon for thorough cleaning and deburring of delicate parts or parts with bores or recess that are difficult to reach and are also well suited to large surfaces. Adding a vibratory compound together with selected media to a vibratory machine for mass finishing causes the machine’s rubbing action to have an abrasive effect on the parts, helping to clean them more effectively. Another advantage of compounds is their suspension properties, which stop the debris that arises from depositing back on the parts, thereby keeping the abrasive action constant.

The lineup of Vibra-Glo industrial finishing compounds available includes five types of rust inhibitors, two all-purpose cleaners, two alkaline cleaners, and two mild acidic burnishers. The range that Vibra Finish carries is ample evidence of the many ways compounds benefit the process.
