Load the felt bobs by running them lightly against the compound bar – avoid overloading, and apply more as needed. Work the loaded felt evenly across the surface and avoid dwelling – this prevents overheating and uneven areas. Switch to the polishing compound to bring the surface to a bright shine. Always use a new, clean felt bob for each compound to prevent cross-contamination – Never mix felts. Finish with Vienna Lime – dip a soft lint-free cloth into the powder and wipe over the surface to remove haze and bring out optical clarity. Applications This kit is ideal for: Bike polishing – restore motorcycle parts to a mirror finish. Car polishing – detail wheels, trims, and stainless steel components. Fabrication and metalwork – polish welded or machined parts. DIY polishing projects – bring back shine to aluminium, brass, copper, or steel.
