This Bench Grinder Polishing Kit is suited to polishing aluminium and all alloys.
The kit contains Double Width 150mm Loose Leaf Calico and Sisal Buffs, 1 piece of Fastcut Compound (Grey), 1 piece of SS Compound (white) and 2 Tapered Spindles to fit on either side of your Bench Grinder.
The Loose Leaf Calico Buff will deliver the best results when paired with the white SS Compound. It is great for achieving a high quality mirror finish on aluminium + alloys. The Sisal Buff is to paired with the grey Fastcut Compound. It is best to use the Sisal Buff and Fastcut Compound first on your surface to cut back any light scratch marks, and then finish with the Loose Leaf Calico Buff and Compound to create a mirror finish.

I can not give advice on what size spindle suits your specific grinder. There is a guide above, but if you don't know then measure the thread with a vernier. Or buy a few different nuts in the size you think it is, and see if it screws on ok, or just ring the manufacturer and ask them
I do not have UNF spindles or any other sizes other than those listed above
