Had time to play around with my GnP polishing head. Else named Wolfhead.
Image
Installed abrasive loads. It's 4 sheets stapled on to a loop. 3 such loops on each load.
Image
Mount cover and turn clockwise to pull in the excessive sheets. You can regulate how long you want them to extend. Or you can extract and cut off the worn tip of the sheet.
Image
Then just mount on your drill...
It's not easy. The head is heavy and it takes a lot of practice to keep your hand always parallel to the ground to obtain that straight lines Finishing. The perfect job requires all panels to cone of and work on a table.
