HOW TO USE?

Created for dual action machine polishers and rotary machine polishers.

Caution – avoid areas of paintwork that are chipped or the lacquer is peeling.

Unsuitable for matte paint

Instructions below are ideal for a Dual Action Machine Polisher, if using a Rotary Machine Polisher please take extra caution with using high speeds over painted plastics.

1. Thoroughly clean and dry the vehicle, ensuring any fallout and contamination is removed from the paintwork with Magma and/or a clay bar. Remove any tar and previous polishes and coatings from the surface using Autoglym Intensive Tar Remover.
2. Recommendation – if possible, park the vehicle indoors or in a sheltered area, out of direct sunlight and wind. Mask any badges, delicate trim, door handles, lights, unpainted plastics, etc. with low tack masking tape.
3. Work on an area at a time, e.g. shoulder width size. Place the pad to the top of the panel and start the machine at its lowest speed. Pass over the area in a horizontal motion, gradually increasing the speed from low to high.
4. Work on the same area for approx. 1 to 1 ½ minutes until the compound is translucent. Buff the area with the Autoglym Finishing Cloth and check for swirl marks with an LED light. Add more product as needed and continue until the desired result is achieved. Work up to any swage lines, do not polish over them.
5. Buff any remaining compound with the Autoglym Finishing Cloth.
6. If holograms are present, repeat the process from stage 4 using the Soft Foam Refining Pad.
7. Now the paintwork is ready for protection with Autoglym UHD Ceramic Coating and/or UHD Wax.

Top Tip: If stubborn deposits of compound are left on the paintwork, spray with water and buff clean.
