Description
The compounding sponge is a type of polishing sponge that is used with an automotive polisher. It is necessary to polish a vehicle body panel when the panel has been newly painted with a clear-coat, when shallow scratch marks need to be removed, when the panel has suffered from oxidation, or when swirl marks and hologram defects need to be removed. The compounding sponge uses white, orange, red, black, and soft black. It is available in a range of densities and colors. The compounding sponge can be converted to a longer thread by using the male and female threads. Recommended polishing compounds to use with the compounding sponge include Liquid Shine High cut, Liquid Shine Fine cut, and Liquid Shine Zero swirl.
