Possible Cause
1. Operator using
much pressure.
2. Speed setting too low.
1. Wrong polishing com-
pound for material.
2. Using too much or too lit-
tle polishing compound.
1. Work surface contains
residue or contaminants.
2. Contaminated or over-
used wool bonnet.
3. Incorrect polishing
technique.
4. Moving polisher too fast
over surface.
5. Using too low of a speed
setting.
6. Using too little or too
much downward
pressure.
7. Wool bonnet not flat
against surface being
polished.
Solution
too 1. Use less pressure when polishing
(Page 18).
2. Increase speed (Page 7).
1. Use correct polishing compound
(Page 18).
2. Some trial-and-error is necessary
with each product. Too much or
too little product creates too much
or too little lubricity, compromising
effectiveness (Page 18).
1. Dirt, oil, rust, paint, or other film
must be removed chemically or
with water. Dry surface before
polishing.
2. Replace wool bonnet (Page 17).
3. Make sure to overlap strokes by
50%. Use light pressure (Page 18).
4. Move polisher slowly over surface,
especially when removing paint
defects like oxidation, scratches,
swirls, etc. (Page 18).
5. Use higher speed setting, espe-
cially when removing paint defects
scratches, swirls, etc (Page 18).
6. Apply enough pressure that polish-
ing compound can be effective, but
not so much pressure that backing
pad stops spinning. Some trial-
and-error necessary (Page 18).
7. Keep wool bonnet flat against sur-
face being polished. Applying too
much pressure to one edge can
stop rotation and decrease effec-
tiveness (Page 18).
