How to use the Weha Donkey Pads to remove a scratch out of quartz or granite surfaces:
- Start with the Weha Trio 3 step pads using an Aluminum Rigid Backer Pad or a Rigid backer pad. Use all 3 pads, fanning out each grit, using the typical technique used for surface polishing.
- After the Step 3 pad, start with the Weha Donkey Pad 600 grit, then grit, then 2000 grit using the same fanning pattern, be sure to run these pads at 1200 RPM or less.
- After 2000 grit, dry the surface and see if the finish is matched. If not, continue to the 3000 grit.
- Occasionally, depending on the Quartz/Granite, a 6000 grit may be needed. If using 7 step diamond polishing pads, bring up to 3000 grit, then start with the Weha Donkey Pad 600 grit, then grit, then 2000 grit using the same fanning pattern. 1200 RPM or less.
How to use the Weha Donkey Pads to remove etch marks out of marble:
Start with the 600 grit Donkey pad with low rpm, 1800 rpm or less, and work over the area in 30 second increments. Depending on the marble and gloss, a 1000 grit and 2000 grit maybe necessary.
**Tip: For repairs inside the home, soak the Donkey surface polishing pads in water for at least 20 minutes to absorb water. this will provide enough water for surface repair inside the home.
