Pro Tips
- Use the firm orange sponge for heavier compounding and stronger surface correction before moving to a medium or finishing pad.
- Use slower speeds when using the sponge as a finishing pad. The recommended finishing speed is 600 - 1000RPM.
- Keep the sponge clean during use to help reduce swirl marks, drag marks and uneven polishing results.
- Do not overload the pad with compound. Start with a moderate amount and add more only when needed.
- Spread the compound over the working area at low speed before increasing the machine speed.
- Inspect the sponge before use and do not use it if the foam, backing pad or thread is damaged.
- Allow the foam pad to air dry completely after cleaning before storing it away.
How to Use
- Check that the polisher spindle matches the M14 x 2.0mm thread on the sponge.
- Attach the compounding sponge securely to the polisher before starting the machine.
- Apply a suitable polishing compound to the sponge or directly to the work surface.
- Start the polisher at a low speed to spread the compound evenly over the working area.
- Work in controlled sections and keep the pad flat against the surface where possible.
- Apply light to moderate pressure and allow the sponge and compound to do the work.
- For finishing work, use slower speeds in the recommended range of 600 - 1000RPM.
- After use, remove the sponge from the machine and clean it with warm soapy water.
- Rinse with clean water and allow the foam pad to air dry completely before storage.
Safety
- Wear eye, hand and respiratory protection where required, especially when polishing or preparing painted surfaces.
- Always use the correct tool and accessory for the job.
- Ensure the sponge is securely fitted to the polisher before switching the machine on.
- Do not use the sponge if the foam, backing pad or thread is damaged.
- Keep hands, loose clothing and hair away from the rotating sponge while the machine is running.
- Use the recommended operating speed for the application and avoid excessive pressure.
