• When done, clean the surface of the just buffed object of all compound residue and inspect.
Eastwood #10194ZP, PRE Painting Prep is excellent for cleaning buffing residue as are acetone,
mineral spirits or denatured alcohol. If some areas require additional attention, repeat above
buffing process and check again. Numerous "clean & check" periods may need to be done to
achieve the desired results.
• Always clean the buffing residue on the object before progressing to the next finest
Compound/Wheel combination or contamination of the softer wheel will occur.
• When stepping to the next finest Compound/Wheel combination, unplug the Buff Motor
and change to the next Wheel.
Never attempt to buff concave, deeply recessed or inside surfaces where there is
a danger of catching and edge on the rotating Wheel.
For these conditions, see following section:
BUFFING RECESSED, CONCAVE OR OTHER
"INSIDE" AREAS
• To reach deeply recessed areas other-
wise inaccessible with a full-size Buff
Wheel, Eastwood recommends the use
of an Eastwood #13045, Tapered Goblet
Buff with a Buff Taper for 1/4" Drill
Chucks (#13053) (FIG 9) with either the
Stainless (#32031), Tripoli (#32032) or
White Rouge (#32032).
• Compound should be applied more
sparingly to felt bobs. Periodically spin
the bob against a wire brush or old hack saw blade securely mounted in a bench vise
to remove buildup.
• As with using Buff Wheels, the use of a dedicated Goblet Buff for each Compound is
necessary to avoid contamination.
