Flitz Buff Ball is a 5-inch, self-cooling drill polishing attachment bundled with 1.76 oz of Flitz Metal Polish Paste to safely buff, shine, and protect metal, painted surfaces, plastics, and fiberglass.

Ready to turn any 3/8-inch drill into a high-speed buffer, this kit combines a durable viscose polishing ball with a concentrated paste developed by Flitz. It’s designed for hobbyists and pros who want fast, repeatable shine without glazing, lint, or heat damage. The components are washable and reusable, and the polish is formulated to handle tarnish, light oxidation, and scuffs while leaving a protective finish.

How quickly will this buff and polish a surface?

The drill-mounted buff ball accelerates the polishing process by using a powered rotary motion to spread and work the paste efficiently. In most cases you’ll see visible improvement in minutes, depending on the size and condition of the item. Using the included paste ensures a consistent, protective sheen without excessive effort.

  • Attaches to any 3/8-inch drill or air tool for instant power.
  • Rated up to 2000 RPM for effective polishing without overheating.
  • 1.76 oz paste covers multiple small projects or spot repairs.
  • Self-cooling viscose fabric reduces risk of scorch or burn marks.

Will the polishing ball withstand repeated use and washing?

The buff ball is constructed from heat-resistant viscose that resists tearing and shredding at high speeds, and it’s designed to be washable and reusable. With routine cleaning and proper care you can expect multiple uses before replacement is necessary. This makes it economical for workshops and seasonal detailing.

  • Washable fabric cleans residue for repeated performance.
  • Self-cooling material helps maintain shape under load.
  • Durable stitching and construction prevent linting and fraying.
  • Reusable up to several cycles depending on project intensity.

What surfaces and problems does the Flitz kit handle?

This kit is formulated for a wide range of surfaces: metals (aluminum, chrome, brass), automotive paint, fiberglass, and many plastics. It removes light oxidation, scuffs, tarnish, and surface pitting while leaving a protective sheen. Avoid aggressive use on soft finishes without testing in an inconspicuous spot first.

  • Effective on metal trim, wheels, and engine components.
  • Safe for painted panels and clearcoats when used gently.
  • Useful for plastic trim, helmets, and fiberglass fairings.
  • Good for restoring antiques, instruments, and household hardware.

How do I use the buff ball and polish together?

Secure the 5-inch buff ball to any 3/8-inch drill or air tool and apply a small amount of Flitz paste to the working surface. Run the drill at a moderate speed and work in overlapping passes until desired shine is achieved, then wipe away residue with a clean cloth. Clean the buff ball after use to extend its life.

  • Attach ball to drill chuck and tighten to spec.
  • Apply a pea-sized amount of paste; spread evenly while rotating.
  • Use 800–2000 RPM; avoid prolonged high-speed contact in one spot.
  • Wipe finished area and launder the buff ball for reuse.

Who is this for? The Flitz Buff Ball with Metal Polish Paste suits detailers, mechanics, motorcycle and car enthusiasts, restorers, and DIYers who want a fast, low-lint polishing solution. It’s especially useful when you need a portable, drill-driven option that minimizes heat and shredding while delivering a protective shine. Made in the USA with advanced ingredients, it’s a practical choice for routine maintenance, spot polishing, and small restoration tasks.
