Recommended polishing compounds to use:


  • Liquid Shine™
    High cut     - Features a silicone, wax and filler free polishing
    compound to give a high gloss finish on fresh or cured paint. It is capable
    of removing P1500 grit sanding marks. It can be used on automotive paints,
    marine gel-coats and on composite surfaces.

  • Liquid Shine™
    Fine cut     - similar to the High cut polishing compound, but it
    is designed for use on a ceramic and scratch resistant clear-coat. It is
    capable of removing P2000 scratch marks.

  • Liquid Shine™
    Zero swirl     - Very low abrasive for the final step of polishing.
    Removes holograms and swirl marks. Use a soft compounding sponge as a final
    step

Steps to take when polishing a panel:

1. Preparing the panel:

  • Sometimes a panel has fine over-spray left from spraying the clear-coat.
    This needs to be removed by lightly sanding with a fine abrasive paper. All
    over-spray need to be sanded out up to P1500 grit.
  • The panel should be washed when all spray-finishing defects have been
    removed. Any dirt particles could cause scratch marks when polishing.
  • Tight curves and ends of the panel should be masked-off to prevent the
    effects caused by point pressure. The polisher should always be used on flat
    surfaces.

2. Applying the polishing compound:

  • A five rand coin amount of polishing compound should be applied to the
    sponge. Switch the polisher to it's lowest speed setting.
  • Switch on the polisher and gradually spread the polishing compound over
    the panel.
  • Keep moving the polisher on the panel to have as little amount of
    pressure and friction.
  • The polishing compound will remove the scratch marks caused by the P1500
    sand paper and it will bring out an impressive gloss finish.
  • Remove the masking from the panels and apply the polishing compound to a
    microfiber cloth. Hand polish (by moving your hand in a small circular
    motion) the tight curves and ends in the panels until the same finish is
    achieved as from the polisher.

3. Wash the panel when finished:

  • Wash the panel after polishing to remove any residue from the polishing
    compound.
