SELECTING THE RIGHT CAR POLISH
Paint polishes are given different names to indicate their intended purpose.
Here’s a quick definition of polish terms:
• Compound - A compound, often called a rubbing compound or a paint
cleaning compound, is a highly abrasive cutting polish designed to remove
heavy oxidation, paint damage and defects, and the scratches created by
fine sandpaper.
• Polish - A blend of fine abrasives designed to remove minor scratches,
slight surface imperfections, water spots, acid rain spots, light oxidation,
and swirl marks.
• Glaze - A very fine paint polish. A glaze does not have enough cutting
power to remove imperfections, but will increase surface gloss.
• Pre-wax cleaner - A fine polish containing chemical cleaners to help
remove minor surface contamination and dirt not removed by washing.
Each of these levels of polish can be used with your Ultimate Detailing
Machine Model 1000. Always follow the polish manufacturer’s directions.
Do not use a polish that is not specified by the manufacturer for machine
application.
Ultimate Detailing Machine offers a full range of DAS™ automotive polishes
certified for use with your Model 1000.
OPERATION
Before using the Ultimate Detailing Machine Model 1000, your car must be
freshly washed and dry. Never polish or buff on a dirty finish or your paint
will be damaged (swirls and scratches).
Always use a clean pad with each product. Never mix products on a pad. If
a pad is not dirty, you may store it in a Ziploc baggie for future use. Be sure
to label the baggie to identify the product on the pad.
Always work in an area with good lighting. Overhead fluorescent or halogen
lighting is best. Do not work in direct sunlight.
Be sure to remove all rings, watches, bracelets, belts and other items that
will scratch your vehicle’s paint. Consider wearing an apron to protect your
clothing and the paint finish.
To operate your Ultimate Detailing Machine Model 1000, follow these simple
instructions:
Step 1: Select the most appropriate foam polishing pad for the job. Center the pad on
the Vecro backing plate and press firmly.
