Polishing Operations
The Model T33306 can be used to achieve
a high gloss shine on finished wood sur-
faces.
Allow your finish to cure thoroughly. The
general rule is that the longer the finish is
allowed to cure, the better the final result
will be.
Always follow manufacturer's instructions
on how to use their wax or polish product.
Before using the sander for polishing oper-
ations, use a fine grit of sandpaper or
steel wool to lightly roughen the surface.
This will remove any bumps or dust on the
workpiece surface.
Apply mineral spirits and wipe the
workpiece dry. This will remove the debris
created by the light sanding.
To polish a wood workpiece:
1. Attach pad or bonnet to backing pad
