How To: Tips & Techniques
Pumicing with the TCS Turbo Buff
Using the TCS Turbo Buff for pumicing cuts pumicing time in half. Simply soak the Turbo Buff before use, mix polycril compound with water until it reaches a muddy consistency, and then begin pumicing (focusing on one section at a time). Remember to apply moderate pressure and protect the teeth with your fingers.
Rag Buff 101
Designate one Rag Buff to one specific use. Using one product per buff prolongs the life of your Rag Buff and ensures a better shine. Mixing products on a single buff cancels the products' intended purpose.
The best paste for each material
For Best Results*: Polish Unbreakable™ with Green Hi-Shine paste on high speed with moderate pressure. Polish iFlex™ with Green Hi-Shine paste on high speed with moderate pressure. Polish Karadent™ with iShine paste on medium-high speed with very light pressure. *Prior to polishing an appliance, apply Brown Tripoli with a Rag Buff using medium to high pressure.
