		Application
1	Wash the vehicle	Then dry the vehicle.
2	Remove any other contamination such as, e.g. tar splashes and industrial deposits	Do not work in the sun, since this can cause serious paint damage.	AP98.00-P-0635A
3	Buff out damage locally with a lambskin wheel and fine polishing paste	Guide the polishing machine (buffer) with light pressure and do not tilt over otherwise so called "buffer swirl" occurs: ↓
		Buffing marks from polishing painted surfaces The speed of the lambskin disk should be between 1500 rpm and 2000 rpm (otherwise inadequate polishing effect). Use cork or rubber backing discs. Take care not to rub through the top coat film. Depending on the damage type, roughen or grind the affected area beforehand with wet abrasive paper (P2000).	AR98.00-P-0750-17A

4	Buff up any visible polishing marks and the entire surface of the part	Using the Moltoprene disc without polishing agent. Buff until the luster of the adjacent surface is reached.
5	Rub off polish residues	After drying, buff up with a polishing wad moistened with water.
6	Buff up the surface manually with polish and a polishing wad	In order to make polishing work easier, use clean polishing wads or clean polishing cloth while changing them frequently. *BR00.45-Z-1013-04A
7	Rub off polish residues	After the drying process, a light film is formed on the treated surface. Using a clean polishing wad moistened in water, rub until the surface is clear.
8	Treat the surface with gloss preserver	Gloss preservation protects the paintwork against premature matting.	*BR00.45-Z-1014-04A
