Polish the surfaces designated for treating |
Operate the polishing machine evenly. Otherwise visible irregularities are formed in the paint surface.
Polish at the rotational lowest speed, approx. 800 rpm (1st stage), for 10 s at moderate pressure in cross-coat action at the damaged area. Then increase rotational speed: 1300 rpm (3rd stage) to 1600 rpm (4th stage). Do not exceed a polishing time of 30 s at any one sanding spot.
On larger areas, make sure that one partial area (approx. 1/4 m2
) is always polished out at a time. Because the polish is ground while polishing, at the start a more abrasive effect is observed and the intensive gloss only appears at the end.
