Leather buffs remain on the bench for smoothing flat faces and lifting dried residue from movement plates. We mount natural hide across this stick to present a flat, firm contact area. At 12 mm across, this buff suits broader bridges and exterior case surfaces.
Working face width
The 12 mm leather strip provides a wide contact area for cleaning plate flats and broad surfaces. It distributes light hand pressure evenly across the metal rather than concentrating friction along a narrow line.
Natural leather surface
We dress this tool with natural hide that accepts diamond paste, rouge, or dry cleaning strokes. The skin holds fine abrasive paste deep within its grain without releasing loose grit onto the workpiece.
Rigid stick mount
The leather is backed by a solid core to keep the wiping surface flat under hand pressure. This rigid backing stops the leather from wrapping around sharp component edges during a pass.
Workshop maintenance
Keep this buff dedicated to one grade of paste or keep it clean for dry wiping. When the leather loads with swarf and dried compound, dress the top layer down with fine abrasive paper.

Keeping the bench clean
Cleaning putty and what it lifts, why solvents are kept away from some surfaces, the point of a bench mat and a tray with a lip, cloths and brushes, and how tools are put away so the next job starts on a clear board.
