HOW TO USE:

1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure the vehicle’s paint surface is clean, dry, and free of contaminants. Wash and decontaminate the area to be polished.
2. Attach the Pad: Securely attach the Hi-Tech Industries HB375 pad to your rotary or dual-action polisher via its Velcro backing.
3. Apply Compound/Polish: Apply a small amount of your chosen light cutting compound or polish directly to the pad. For initial passes, a few pea-sized drops are usually sufficient.
4. Work Area: Place the pad flat on the paint surface before starting the polisher. Work in small sections, typically 2×2 feet (0.6×0.6 meters), using consistent, overlapping passes.
5. Maintain Pressure and Speed: Apply consistent, light to moderate pressure and use a medium speed setting on your polisher, as recommended by your compound/polish manufacturer.
6. Monitor Heat: Regularly check the temperature of the panel to ensure it does not get too hot. The pad’s curved edge helps with heat dissipation, but careful monitoring is still important.
7. Wipe Residue: After completing a section, turn off the polisher, lift the pad, and wipe off any excess compound/polish residue with a clean microfiber towel.
8. Clean Pad: Periodically clean the pad using a pad brush or by washing it to remove caked-on product, maintaining optimal cutting performance.
