Description
To get the best results from Holo Heal and Finishing Polish, you need the right applicator. These high-density foam swabs are designed to apply restoration compounds gently and accurately, helping you work on holographic surfaces without scratching delicate foils or leaving excess product behind.
The durable foam head stays intact during use and gives you the control needed for both detailed application and light buffing. Its non-linting design helps keep the product where you want it, reducing waste and keeping the finish clean.
Disclaimer
We are not responsible for how you use this tool or the results you get. Card maintenance involves risk, and any damage caused to your cards during use is your sole responsibility. We strongly recommend practising on low-value bulk cards to master the technique before using this tool on your main collection.
Directions to Use
For Holo Heal:
Apply a small amount of Holo Heal directly to the foam tip. Gently work the compound into the targeted area of the card's holographic foil using small, circular motions. Once applied, switch to a clean microfibre cloth and gently buff the area. This buffing action helps blend the compound and restores the foil’s clarity and shine.
For Finishing Polish:
Apply a small amount of Finishing Polish directly to the foam tip. Using light, controlled pressure, apply the polish to the card surface in small, circular motions to lift minor imperfections and dullness. Once worked in, immediately wipe off the polish gently with a clean microfibre cloth, ensuring no residue is left behind to dry on the card.
Important Tips:
- Protect Your Edges: Always keep liquid compounds away from the raw edges of the card. Introducing moisture to unprotected cardstock can cause irreversible edge swelling.
- Never Spray the Card: Always apply formulas to your swab first, never directly to the card.
- Avoid Cross-Contamination: Use a separate swab for different formulas (e.g., one specifically for Holo Heal, and a new one for Finishing Polish).
- Practice First: As always, practice on lower-value bulk cards to master the pressure and technique before working on your main collection.
