does anyone know how to use this stuff?

i bought a little kit the other day that came with a bunch of polishing wheels and whatnot, and a little tub of polishing compound (reddish looking clay). how are you supposed to use this stuff to polish?

Play with it. Don't overspeed things if you're doing plastic. Alum. should be easy.

well should i put some of the paste on the cotton wheel, rub it in, then start dremeling?

or, put the paste on whatever i'm going to dremel, take a clean wheel and start?

use mid level speed. as the dremel is spinning with whatever wheel you are using, lay the spinning wheel over the red rouge (the clay bar) let the wheel melt the rouge. As the bar melts, it will feed into the cotton wheel. Now take the dremel and apply the spinning wheel to whatever your working on. While using the wheel on the piece, get the residue that is left on the piece to turn dark grey to almost black. You do this by continued passes of the wheel over the area. You will need to re-apply the red rouge to the wheel in the same manner I described above. Use slow even passes over the entire work area. Once you have completed this step. Start over with another wheel and the white rouge. Do the same thing.

so than just use the red. after that buff it off with microfiber and maybe some polishing paste like mothers
