Zephyr Buffing Wheel Rake

Maintain peak performance from your buffing wheels with the Zephyr Buffing Wheel Rake — a durable, easy-to-use cleaning tool made for professional metal polishers and truck detailers.

Over time, polishing compounds and metal particles build up on your buffs, reducing efficiency and shine quality. The Zephyr Buffing Wheel Rake removes this buildup quickly, exposing fresh fibers and restoring your wheel’s full cutting and coloring power.

Built with a heavy-duty steel handle and replaceable serrated steel rake head, this tool stands up to daily shop use. The long handle provides safety and leverage, while the toothed rake face efficiently scrapes out hardened compound and residue from any airway, cotton, or spiral buff.

Use the rake on your Zephyr Airway Buffs, cotton buffs, or taper buffs between polishing stages to maintain consistency, reduce contamination, and extend wheel life.

Ideal for use with Zephyr’s complete polishing line — from Kwik Cut to Satin Airway wheels and PRO 40 metal polish.
