FAQs

What type of surfaces can I use the DSPIAE LM10 on?

The LM10 is designed for plastic models, including clear parts, painted finishes, resin, and bare plastic surfaces.

How does this compound differ from other polishes?

DSPIAE LM10 is specifically formulated as a fine-grit liquid rubbing compound for plastic models, focusing on removing micro-scratches and haze to achieve a high gloss without damaging the underlying material.

Do I need to seal the surface after using this compound?

LM10 is a polishing compound, not a sealant. After achieving the desired gloss, you may want to apply a clear coat or sealant depending on your model's finish and protection needs.

Can I use this on my smartphone screen?

No, the LM10 is intended for plastic model kits and may be too abrasive for sensitive electronic screens.

How much pressure should I use when applying?

Apply with light to moderate, even pressure. Excessive force can damage delicate plastic or paintwork. Let the compound do the work.

How should I store the compound?

Store the LM10 in its original container with the lid tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Compound leaves a cloudy finish.

Ensure you are using a clean, soft cloth. Try buffing with a separate, clean dry cloth after application. Make sure the surface was properly cleaned before application.

Compound is not removing visible scratches.

The scratches may be too deep for this fine-grit compound. Consider starting with a coarser abrasive (like fine-grit sandpaper) before using LM10. Ensure you are applying adequate, even pressure during polishing.

Compound seems to be drying too quickly.

Work in smaller sections and apply the compound sparingly. If it dries, a slightly damp cloth can help re-activate it for further buffing, but avoid excessive moisture.

Product removed paint or decal.

This compound is a fine abrasive. Ensure painted surfaces and decals are fully cured and sealed before application. Test on an inconspicuous area first. Apply with light pressure.
