Especially with plain-coloured edges it is noticeable straight away: after processing the radius looks paler or duller than the face of the edge.
Typical causes
- Too large a chip at the profile scraper – with ABS edges it should be very small
- Blunt tools on radius cutter and scraper
- Cold edges or panels during processing
- Missing or incorrectly set finishing
Remedies
- Sharpen or replace tools and reduce the scraper chip.
- Use Lc 2/30 or iClean before the buffing wheels – it removes fluid and glue residue and supports an even finish.
- Choose buffing wheels or polishing rings to suit the edge and change them in good time – e.g. cloth polishing rings or Cotton-Sisal-Wave.
- Alternative with more contact area: BRUSH-tec® E or ES with BRUSH-tec® agent.
Tip: printed decor edges tolerate slight whitening better than plain-coloured edges.
