How to Use a Car Polishing Machine
If you’re confident in your ability and feel you need to use a machine polisher overdoing by hand, then there are a few core steps you need to take before starting to use the machine.
1. Prepare Your Car for Polishing
The first thing you need to do is clean your car before using the car buffer, ensuring that it is spotless before you start. This is because the smallest piece of dirt or debris left on the paintwork may end up getting dragged across the coat of your car and scratching the paint further. Once the car is clean, thoroughly dry the paintwork with a microfibre cloth or professional drying towel. This will help prime your car to perfection, giving you the surface you need for effective polishing.
2. Apply Car Polish
When looking at machine polisher, you should see a polishing head at the top of it. Apply a single blob of polish to the polishing head and then spread the polish onto the area which needs to be polished. This ensures the area is lubricated, as a dry polisher can cause damage to your paintwork.
3. Start Polishing the Car
Place the pad on the paintwork and ensure the machine is set to a slow setting. Then use the buffer to spread the polish around the area.
Now turn the buffer to the desired speed – this will depend on which make of polish you are using, so be sure to follow the instructions on the container. Apply even pressure to the paintwork, pressing down on the buffer quite lightly, and not too much so that it could damage the paint and the buffer.
4. Work in Small Sections
Move the buffer slowly over the section in circular motions to form a haze effect. You may need to go over sections more than once.
5. Finish with a Polishing Cloth
Move the buffer slowly over the section in circular motions to form a haze effect. You may need to go over sections more than once in order to get an even polish across the surface of your car.
