FAQs

What kind of polisher do I need?

A dual-action or rotary polisher is recommended, with a speed range of 1500-2500 RPM.

Can I use this on my car's headlights?

Yes, but be careful not to damage the plastic. Test in an inconspicuous area first.

How much compound should I use?

Start with a small amount, about the size of a pea, and add more as needed.

What kind of polishing pad should I use?

A foam or microfiber pad is recommended for the final polishing stage.

How long should I polish each area?

Polish each area until the imperfections are removed, typically for a few minutes per section. Avoid over-polishing.

Can I use this on tinted windows?

Yes, but exercise caution. Test on a small area first to ensure it doesn't damage the tint.

Troubleshooting

Polishing leaves streaks or hazing.

Reduce the amount of compound used or try a different polishing pad. Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned after polishing.

Polishing not removing scratches.

The scratch may be too deep. This compound is best for fine scratches and imperfections. Consider a more aggressive compound for deeper scratches.

Polisher is vibrating excessively.

Check the polishing pad for balance and make sure it is securely attached. Reduce the speed of the polisher.

Compound dries too quickly.

Work in smaller areas or apply a small amount of water to the pad to keep it moist.
