approved safety glasses when buffing to protect the face and eyes.

depending on the substrate being buffed. Always wear a NIOSH approved
breathing apparatus when buffing.

operator. Do not touch the wheels while they are spinning. Always wear thick
close fitting leather gloves while buffing to protect your hands from injury.
