Thread: Prrraolishing leaving black residue on everything...

So as of late I've been using my polishing progression from casewell.. Unfortunately I didn't have enough wheels for al the entire pollisimg progression, so I only use black on a spiral sewn and white on loose cotton. Whenever I use the black compound it does leave its residue, I'll pull out a cloth and just as easy as it came it would be gone... now on the white with the loose wheel it is driving m nuts! It never use trrreo have this problem of whipping the compound I between the wedge and cracks in the razor.... Which are a huge pain to get out and the times I see it under a pin I have to unpeen and clean it out lol...

but really? What's going on? I never used to have this problem, I actually tried it at a friends as well, and it did happen over there... I Do know that I have it on the lowest RPM thats it... Maybe I need to buy a new one? I only has this one for two weeks

here IS some bone it ledton

Pretty much incomprehensible.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

It's legal there anyhow!

I would do the buffing with the razor dismantled.

You can use brake pad cleaner to remove the residue.

I personally only polish with ren wax on light coloured scales for this reason.
But use greaseless compounds, autosol, Tripoli, chrox & ferrox on steel with no problems
It could just be to much compound on your wheel, just clean it off with a wheel rake if you have it or just a wire brush or edge of a file even works for me to get rid of the excess.
And see how you go

Your wheels are over-loaded, rake and trim them with a sharp scissors, then reload. You don’t need much compound.

Read the tutorial on the Castwell’s website, lots of good info there.

What size wheel are you using?

definitely rake your wheels. Load them little and often.
