BUFFER

^

Keep the pad flat and allow the weight of the buffer to do the work. Use the polish sparingly; it doesn't take much to do the job.

AFTER POLISHING

AFTER POLISHING-All Swirl Marks Are Removed and Original Shine Is Restored

^

When polishing is completed, examine the repair, If the repair is satisfactory, remove the masking materials and clean the vehicle of any
dripped or spattered compound or polish.

SUMMARY

This paint repair system should always be considered before spot painting or refinishing an entire panel. The procedure can save time and money, and
increase customer satisfaction.

Remember that all three basic steps - 1) color sanding, 2) compounding, and 3) polishing-may not be necessary for every paint problem. Consider
polishing first, then compounding and polishing, and as the last resort: color sanding, compounding, and polishing. After a little experience you'll be able
to quickly decide which steps are needed to restore the paint of a particular vehicle to the desired condition.
