  Grind and polish     
1 Wash vehicle. Car Wash *BR00.45-Z-1002-04A .
2 Grind damaged area in paint with fine-grained abrasive paper. IMPORTANT The grain size must be at least P2500. A better option would be a grain size between P3000 and P5000.  
3 Place polishing sponge exactly in the center on the polishing pad. IMPORTANT Before commencing the first polishing operation, spray some deionized water lightly onto the polishing sponge.  
4 Apply a little paintwork polish at the polishing area. IMPORTANT Shake paintwork polish well before use.
Polish, silicone-free 5 l, DB supply specification 7545.00
*BR00.45-Z-1013-04A .
    Polish 500 ml *BR00.45-Z-1036-04A .
    MB Nano polish *BR00.45-Z-1062-04A .
5 Polish the surface to be treated for at least 10 s at the lowest machine speed, approx. 80C rpm (stage 1), applying moderate pressure in a cross-coat action over the damaged area. NOTES Make uniform movements with the polishing machine and comply with the polishing time at a damaged area. Otherwise visible irregularities occur in the paint surface.
IMPORTANT On larger areas make sure that you always polish-out one partial area (approx. 1/4 m2) at a time. As the paintwork polish pulverizes during polishing, a more marked abrasive effect is visible initially. The high gloss is only produced at the end.
 
6 Polish the surface to be treated for a maximum of 30 s at increased machine speed, approx. 1300 rpm (3rd stage) to 1600 rpm (4th stage), applying moderate pressure in a cross-coat action over the damaged area. NOTES Make uniform movements with the polishing machine and do not exceed the polishing time at a damaged area. Otherwise visible irregularities occur in the paint surface.
IMPORTANT On larger areas make sure that you always polish-out one partial area (approx. 1/4 m2 ) at a time. As the paintwork polish pulverizes during polishing, a more marked abrasive effect is visible initially. The high gloss is only produced at the end.
 
7 Spray on de-ionized water and remove polish residue using a tack rag.    
8 Seal polished surface with gloss preservation. IMPORTANT Shake gloss preservation well before use. Gloss preservation, 500 ml, DB supply specification 7551.10 *BR00.45-Z-1014-04A .
