Expert Q&A: Is it Necessary to “Prime” a Surface Chip Prior with Resin?
Question:
Is it necessary to “prime” a surface chip? Such as with a thin resin before using Premium Pit or Premium Pit Plus resin to polish?
Answer:
A satisfactory repair to a surface chip can be made using only
Premium Pit Plus Resin
and
Premium Pit Polish
however we do recommend coating the surface of a surface pit with a low viscosity fill resin like
MagniBond Resin
. It is not necessary to prime but a low viscosity resin will wick into the scratches.
Question:
What types of glass scratches can Delta Kits polishing compound remove?
Answer:
Delta Kits
Cerium Oxide
and
polishing head
can be used effectively to remove light scratches from windshields, mirrors, residential plate glass windows, and other non-tempered glass. In some cases
cerium oxide
may be able to remove scratches from hardened or tempered glass but it is much more difficult and therefore not recommended. The polishing head features a dense, wool-felt wheel mounted to an aluminum adapter plate. The wheel features a 1″ x 3″ with a 5/8” arbor and 1/4″ shank adapter so it attaches easily to a high-quality
polisher
or variable speed electric drill. Delta Kits’
cerium oxide
is a high-grade extra fine abrasive. Glass and mirror manufacturers use cerium oxide for edge and surface polishing.
