PAD MANAGEMENT
Frequently clean pad face: Use a Pad Conditioner Brush following each buffing cycle. Thoroughly blow pad out with an Air Pulse Blow Gun to expel spent polish and paint residue following each panel. This optimizes pad performance; vastly improving correction rate, finish quality, extending pad life, and ensuring smooth operation.
Pad cycling: Maintain optimal pad performance by installing a fresh pad every 3 or 4 panels of correction.
Wash pads: Rinse pads thoroughly with hot water immediately following work, wring, then saturate with Microfiber & Foam Pad Cleaner and knead until foam appears. Allow to dwell, then rinse thoroughly, or machine wash. Air dry.

Precision

5 / Tape off trim: Protect

Masking Tape

plastic and vinyl trim from

backing plate scuffs and

white polish residue.

6 / Butter your pads: Apply product from the center out and use the domed cap for even distribution. Reapply 3 or 4 small drops per buffing cycle.

7 / Work zone: Focus on a 2' x 2' area, spread product evenly, and make 3 or 4 full passes.

8 / Proper technique: Work in overlapping passes and use a slow arm speed with little downward pressure so the polisher does all the work.

9 / Validate your system: Check your results. If defects persist, repeat or adjust your method.

PRO TIPS
· Maintain buffing pad flat to the surface, letting the panel be your guide.
· Adjust tool speed and downward pressure to ensure you have moderate pad rotation during process.
· Wipe off polish residue following each buffing cycle using a Microfiber Plush Edgeless Towel.
· Using the G13, focus on all edges and isolated defects. Switch to the G15 or G21 for full panel correction with a larger pad.

MEET THE BOSSTM BEST OF SHOW SYSTEM

When it comes to orbital polishers Griot's Garage built the bandwagon. Starting in 1992 our machines have enabled customers of all skill levels to create concours-quality finishes and have tons of fun in the process. The Best Of Show System® is the pinnacle of paint care. It features a foaming system, polishers, pads, and liquids developed to complement one another so you can address virtually every paint care scenario. Bottom line... if you demand the best, reach for BOSS.

BOSSTM FOAMING SYSTEM
This innovative system is ideal for every scenario from pre-correction surface preparation to maintenance of waxed or ceramic-coated paint. Used with contact washing or as a touchless method, our BOSS Foaming System prevents wash-induced scratches as it produces ultra-hydrophobic surface properties.

THE BOSSTM LED SWIRL-FINDER LIGHT
Assessing the paint finish to identify surface defects is critical to determining the proper method you'll need to employ. The Swirl Finder's dual light source features a larger array that generates 320 lumens for detecting coarse swirls and a 120-lumen adjustable LED tip light that can concentrate the beam from 10° to 60° to reveal finer surface defects.

BOSSTM CREAMS
Developed in our labs in Indiana, our proprietary BOSS formulas use advanced sub-micron abrasives to effectively remove defects, imparting highly refined finishes. What you see is what you get, along with efficient buffing cycles and ultra-low dusting.

BOSSTM PADS
BOSSTM Pads are uniquely designed to deliver supreme performance. Their dynamic construction made of thin, advanced materials are weight-matched to our polishers to ensure smooth operation, fast pad rotation, and optimal finishing characteristics. Offered in 1", 2", 3", 5", and 6" systems.

PROFESSIONAL-GRADE POLISHERS
Our long-throw orbital and rotary polishers are engineered by us in-house to withstand professional work environments, delivering comfortable, efficient paint correction.
