FAQs
What is the difference between the included compounds?
The kit includes SCS701 (Cutting Compound MEDIUM) for removing moderate defects, SCS700 (FINE) for refining the finish and removing lighter marks, and SCS702 (Super Polymer Car Polish) for protection and adding gloss. Each is designed for different stages of paint correction.
Can I use pads from other brands with this polisher?
Yes, as long as the pad size and attachment method are compatible with the included backing pads (e.g., hook and loop for foam pads).
How do I clean the foam polishing pads?
Foam pads can typically be cleaned with warm water and a mild soap or dedicated pad cleaner. Gently agitate with a soft brush and rinse thoroughly. Allow them to air dry completely before re-use or storage.
What is the purpose of the extension bars?
The extension bars (40mm and 80mm) allow the polisher to reach into tighter or more complex areas of the vehicle, such as around emblems, trim, or in panel gaps, improving the consistency of the polishing job.
Is this polisher suitable for beginners?
While the soft start feature aids control, rotary polishers require practice. Beginners may find it beneficial to practice on a test panel or scrap vehicle part first. The kit's variety of pads and compounds supports learning different techniques.
What is the warranty period for the Sealey SPK600?
The product comes with a 3 Year Guarantee.
How do I change the polishing pads?
Ensure the polisher is unplugged. Press and hold the spindle lock button to prevent the spindle from turning, then unscrew the old backing pad or pad assembly. Screw on the new backing pad or pad assembly until hand-tight, then release the spindle lock.
Troubleshooting
Polisher not starting
Check if the power cable is securely plugged into a working outlet. Ensure the on/off switch is in the correct position.
Pad spinning unevenly or vibrating excessively
Ensure the pad is correctly and securely attached to the backing pad. Check that the backing pad is properly screwed onto the polisher spindle. Make sure the pad is clean and free from debris.
Reduced polishing effectiveness
Clean or replace the polishing pad. Ensure you are using the correct compound for the paint condition and polishing stage. Check if the brushes need replacing (refer to spare brushes included).
Polisher overheating
Ensure the air vents are clear and not blocked. Do not apply excessive pressure. Allow the tool to cool down between extended periods of heavy use.
