Directions for use- For hand application use a dampened applicator to apply the product on painted surfaces only. After slight hazing occurs, wipe off residue with a micro fiber towel for a beautiful shine. For machine use, any type of wool or foam pad will work well at speeds between 1000-1400 RPM. Always use enough to create a barrier of product between the buffing pad and the paint surface. Wipe off the light residue with a slightly misted microfiber towel for a steak-free and protected finish. For more challenging paint problems, use Optimum Polish & Compound.
