Directions for Use
Shake well before use.
By Machine
Apply Pearl Tornado in small quantities to clean, dry paint surfaces. Use only the minimum amount required to work the target area.
For best results, use an electric rotary polishing machine with a free‑running speed of approximately 1500 RPM.
- Cutting Stage
Work the surface using medium pressure until scratches and imperfections are removed.
- Polishing Stage
As the pad begins to move freely, reduce pressure to allow the polishing action to refine the finish.
- Final Buff
After compounding, remove any residue and buff the surface to a high gloss using a clean, soft Pearl Pro Microfibre Cloth.
By Hand
Ideal for small, localised areas such as:
- Paint transfer from minor accident damage
- Heavy‑duty oxidation
- Localised scratch removal
Apply Tornado to the affected area using a soft high-quality Pro Microfibre Cloth. Work the product evenly over the surface, allow it to haze for one minute, then buff to a high‑gloss finish with a clean microfibre cloth.
Important Notes
- Do not over‑apply or use excessive product
- Do not use in direct sunlight
Note 1 – Soft or Sensitive Paintwork
On delicate paint systems or where heat build‑up may occur, a light water mist can help prevent friction burn, especially when using a new pad. Avoid unnecessary or excessive water.
Note 2 – Pad Activation
Once a new pad has been activated with a light water mist, no additional water is required once the pad becomes impregnated with product.
Note 3 – Finish Compatibility
Not suitable for matt‑lacquered finishes.
