It says on Track's website, compound finish. That's Clean N Sheen, 1000 grit smooth. I duplicate that finish by using a Blue Scotch Brite pad, (which you should be able to get at any Wal-Mart, grocery store, etc.) It is a sponge pad, blue is also 1000 grit. Apply the Clean N Sheen to the rough side, doing 1/4 of the ball at a time. When finished, go over it with Power Wash to remove the residue and you'll have a nice smooth, half shine finish. Hope this helps ya!!
