Default Re: Polishing plastic

One would assume the compounds are made to work best at room temp, like 72F or so. I guess you could hit the bar with hot air once in awhile, but it would probably cool rapidly.

I'd bring the shop temp up if possible. Pre-warm the workpiece, too. You could also try an 8" buff for higher speed, but of course be careful of the plastic.
