Using Paste Wax (Fig. D)
Spread about a heaping teaspoonful of wax evenly
over the entire surface of the foam applicator
bonnet (6). Use a putty knife or any flat object.
DO NOT APPLY WAX DIRECTLY TO CAR.
Operation (Figs. E-H)
• Fit the foam applicator bonnet (6) on pad (1).
• MAKE SURE THE POLISHER IS IN THE OFF
("0") POSITION BEFORE PLUGGING THE
POLISHER INTO AN APPROPRIATE POWER
OUTLET.
• Apply wax on the foam applicator bonnet (6) as
described on "Using Liquid Wax & Paste Wax"
section above.
• To switch your polisher on, press the on/off
switch (3) on the side marked "I". To switch it
off, press the on/off switch on the side marked
"0".
• ALWAYS START AND STOP THE POLISHER
ON OR AGAINST THE SURFACE. Place the
cord over your shoulder and do flat surfaces
first - hood, trunk and roof. Cover areas quickly
with broad, sweeping strokes in a criss-cross
pattern (fig. E)
• DO NOT press down on the polisher. The
machine's action, not pressure, does the best
Job.
• After flat surfaces are covered with wax, do
sides of the car. Hold the polisher as in fig. F.
Let the cord hang free. It is not necessary to
use a criss-cross motion on doors and fenders.
• Remove the foam applicator bonnet (6) and
use it to hand-polish all hard-to-reach surfaces;
under the bumpers, around the door handles,
etc. as shown in fig. G.7
• Throw away the foam applicator bonnet (6) and
put a clean wool bonnet (7) on the polisher as
described in the section "Fitting the Foam
applicator or Wool Bonnet (fig. B)" above.
• Polish the wax in the same order it was applied.
Use long, sweeping strokes in a criss-cross
pattern. Do not press hard. Let the polisher do
the work (Fig. H)
Handy Hits
• This waxer/polisher is a random orbit polisher. It
is designed to wobble. The wobbling motion
produces the fine, swirl free finish.
• For best results, use light pressure only, letting
the polisher do the work.
• Wool bonnet (7) can be hand-washed in
lukewarm water and mind detergent, than
machine dry at the lowest setting. However,
air-drying is recommended.
• Foam applicator bonnets (6) are to be used
only once, then thrown away.
• DO NOT USE ABRASIVE COMPOUNDS.
Liquid wax is recommended to use with this
polisher.
• The most common error is applying too much
wax. If pad becomes saturated, it will not last as
long, and polishing will be more difficult and
take longer.
Too much wax may have been applied if:
Foam applicator bonnet (6) continually comes off
pad; Buffing seems difficult.
• The wool bonnet is only to be used for the final
buff. Do not use it to apply or remove wax.
