Will there be any new kits in your range?

A: We occasionally add new products. We welcome suggestions for additions to our range.

Why is there a bag of white powder included with the kits?

A: The bag of white powder is Vienna Lime. While you are polishing, a black 'smut' sometimes forms on the surface of the metal. Sprinkle a little Vienna Lime of a soft cloth, wipe off the smut and continue polishing.

Do your kits include instructions?

A: All our major kits include full step-by-step instructions.

Do I need to remove paint before polishing?

A: Yes, use a commercially available paint stripper to remove any paint or lacquer first. If your item to be polishing is powder coated then it is a specialised job to remove it. A local powder coating company may be able to strip it for you. You can remove paint with abrasive compounds but it is much more difficult than using paint stripper.
