Directions for use:

Place the polishing pad on the backing plate so it is centred. Do not allow polishing area to overheat. To protect the felt, never polish with high pressure or extreme tilting. To clean the pad when finished, blow out with compressed air. If the felt gets wet, for example when polishing glass, take care when removing it from the backing plate and allow it to dry thoroughly before blowing it out with compressed air.

PLEASE NOTE: due to its high abrasiveness, practise caution polishing near paintwork

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q: What speed setting should the rotary machine run at when polishing glass, and is a
A: Rotary at 800–1200 RPM with light-to-medium pressure; glass polishing generates heat quickly, so keep the pad moving and work in small sections. A DA polisher works but is less efficient than a rotary for glass polishing; the orbital action distributes pressure unevenly on a flat glass surface, extending working time.
Q: Why felt for glass?
A: Felt does not introduce holograms into glass and works effectively with glass polish and cerium oxide.
Q: Why does glass polishing require a felt pad rather than standard foam or wool
A: Glass-specific pad material; felt for glass, foam/wool for paint. Using a paint pad on glass produces incorrect results.
Q: What products does it work with?
A: SONAX PROFILINE Glass Polish 250ml and cerium oxide-based glass polishing compounds.
Q: Is it compatible with DA polishers?
A: Designed primarily for rotary use. Check machine compatibility before using on DA polishers.
