Common Mistakes with Electric Polishers
Polishing Too Quickly / Slowly
Polishing can get incredibly boring, which usually leads us to speeding up the polishing process. However, this could lead to poor results. The same goes for polishing too slowly—this usually leads to cutting through certain areas. Finding a nice, even pace is the best way to achieve good results.
Too Much Pressure
Using more pressure makes the process feel like it is being sped up. When in actuality, it causes swirls, cuts through paint, and creates uneven surfaces. Using the right pad and relying on the weight of the actual tool is preferred, creating a smooth, gliding motion to help you get those perfect results.
Angling the Polisher
Polishers are meant to be used with a flat motion on a flat surface. Using it like an angle grinder is a very common mistake. Doing this usually results in cutting the paint and uneven pad wear, which could potentially damage the backing pad.
Start On, Stop Off
This is a simple method that helps many people avoid swirl marks. Avoid starting the polisher before it is applied to the surface, and avoid stopping it while still working on the surface. This helps ensure good, even contact.
