How to use the compounds and the buffing pad:
- The adaptor is used to hold the buffing pad in the drill’s chuck. Fasten
the correct buffing pad in the adaptor./li> - It would be best to use a drill press to polish metals. If a drill press
is not accessable, use adaptor
TCV01810 with a portable drill with a collar
diameter of Ø43mm. Tighten the adaptor in the drill’s chuck. - The buffing pad should revolve towards you at full speed. Pass the
compound lightly across the face of the buffing pad. To ensure that the
compound is evenly spread, hold a clean piece of scrap metal against the
face of the buffing pad. This will eliminate lumps of compound from
occuring. - If desired, heat the item to 65°C using an oven or a heater. Warming
the metal keeps the compound on the buffing pad. A cool item will draw
compound from the pad and leave deposits. Use a glove to handle the warm
item. - Hold the metal lightly against the buffing pad. Allow the compound to do
the work. - If more compound is required, apply it using a wiping motion. Do not
overload the buffing pad.
