How often should I clean the mitten?

What is the benefit of sheepskin for polishing?

Sheepskin is naturally soft and has fine fibers that can gently buff surfaces to a high shine without causing damage.

Troubleshooting

Mitten feels stiff after drying.

Gently flex the mitten with your hands or brush it with a soft brush to restore suppleness. Avoid applying heat.

Uneven polishing results.

Ensure the surface is clean before polishing. Apply an even amount of polish and use consistent, overlapping strokes with the mitten.

Surface appears duller after use.

This may indicate too much pressure was applied, or the wrong type of polishing compound was used. Ensure you are using a fine polish and a gentle buffing motion.
