Having just bought a buffing wheel thingy, what compound blocks are we all using and for what purpose?

For leather edges I like paraffin or a beeswax/paraffin mix

For tools my progression is black to green to purple.

you will also need the right buffing wheels, you probably cant order from this site but it does have info on the different types and thier uses. https://www.mcmaster.com/Buffing-Wheels/

The compounds also have uses for different applications, mine came with a chart showing each colors use. 

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.
