- 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.

- 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.
