For those seeking perfection in polishing techniques. The UKDA Advanced Machine Polishing (professional) Course is a day for those who would like to develop their technique further on all machine styles to produce the high-end, high-efficiency finish that is the marque of the most accomplished detailers. Taking cues from any existing experience, we will push the boundaries of your polishing abilities over the edge, running rotary DA and forced drives to their limit to give to the skills to drive up your efficiency and perfect paint like never before. The UKDA Advanced Machine Polishing (professional) Course is a 2 day for those who would like to develop their technique further on all machine styles to produce the high-end, high-efficiency finish that is the marque of the most accomplished detailers. Far from there being a consistent method - there are a number of subtle variations you can make to what would be termed a 'standard' technique which will speed up your process, enhance further your gloss extracting capabilities and make the right choice in machine based on paint types, conditions and ancillary equipment. On this day we will run through variables in speed and pad choices, show the differences ambient temperature and rebound can make to a job, explain the different approaches based on clear coat solids, look at how far you can push a painted surface, and much much more. The course is run over two full days (9.30 am - 4.30 pm) and picks up where both our introduction course and the Flexxpert Seminar leave off, so is also the perfect follow-up to those who have attended either course, in addition to those who want to learn all about machine polishing in every style. Alternatively, if you are machine polishing in your day-to-day work outside of detailing and feel you have scope to improve, or you keep coming up against small issues, this is the course for you. Not sure if it suits you? Why not call or message one of our team, and we'll be happy to discuss which course is right for you.

Develop your machine polishing skills. Ideal for those wanting to learn a specific machine polishing style, our Introduction to Machine Polishing for Professionals one-day course is a perfect starting point to get you using machine polishers in a safe, controlled environment. If you already use machines for correction work, it's an opportunity to reset your skills, pick up practical tips and advice, and increase your efficiency with either a different style or one you have used, but were never comfortable with. Develop your technique in a controlled scenario and the ability to make mistakes and learn, with instructor-led training selecting from a huge range of machines, and become proficient in machine polishing all types of surfaces. Learn defect assessment and solutions, lighting, compound technology, machine handling, and efficiency tips for professional results. Our one-day introduction to machine polishing for professionals course is ideal for those who have either; Have never needed to pick up a machine before Have always used only one type of machine Have restricted themselves to entry-level machines and basic techniques, and are now looking to upgrade or improve on a specific style; be it rotary, long throw DA or forced drive. Machines covered on these days could include the Rupes LHR 15/21, Flex XFE, XCE, rotary machines from sleek Flex PE14, through to heavier Makita models, and a further selection from over 23 machines we hold in-house or any machine you choose to bring yourself - just let us know on the day what you would prefer to concentrate on. For those already holding some experience who want to try their hand with different machines whilst improving overall techniques we also run this as a one-day Intermediate course with Flex, or for an overview of several machine types you can look at our Advanced Machine Polishing course over two days. Introduction to Machine Polishing doesn't just concentrate on the hardware though. Also covered in the course are: Surface defects and contamination. Efficiency and productivity methods. Preparation and decontamination stages. 'Reading' the paint. Defect identification. Paint thickness measurements using Magnetic Resonance, Eddy Current, and Ultrasonic gauges. The 'Polish/Don't Polish' decision. Introduction to Pad and Compound types and selection. Finishing techniques. Dressing, Sealant/Wax choices, and presentation. Health and Safety The aim of this course is to make you comfortable with using a machine polisher style over a range of scenarios, to enable you to further practice and perfect the technique required for full competency.

This course provides the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to persons who will knowingly disturb asbestos containing materials during the course of their work activities, including building maintenance workers and supervisory personnel, and building maintenance managers.
P400 - Asbestos Surveying and Analysis is a one day foundation level course, which provides candidates with the fundamental knowledge to start a career in the asbestos surveying and analysis professions, and as a progression route to the asbestos Proficiency qualifications. It gives candidates an introductory level of knowledge on the health risks of asbestos fibres, and how to manage asbestos-containing materials in their work. Candidates for this course are not expected to have prior knowledge and experience but having an awareness of the contents of both HSG248 Asbestos: The analysts' guide (July 2021) and HSG264 Asbestos: the survey guide January 2010), would be advantageous.
This course provides the theory, practical knowledge and skills required for use of microscopes and fibre counting to WHO rules, air sampling and four-stage clearance procedures. The course is based around 'HSG248 Asbestos: The Analysts Guide for Sampling, Analysis and Clearance Procedures'.
Regulation 10 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 sets down requirements for asbestos awareness training. Basically, any employer involved in work where there might be a risk of disturbing asbestos, such as general building, maintenance, demolition, or refurbishment, is required by law to ensure that all affected employees are educated and trained appropriately. More recently the importance of adherence to the awareness measures has been emphasised in the Health & Safety Executive’s ‘Duty to Manage Asbestos Enforcement Initiative’ and it is now clear that non-compliance will not be tolerated. In fact, several perpetrators have already been served with improvement notices, or in the worst-case scenario a probation notice, which results in an immediate and costly halt to work. Employee training is believed to be the best way to target the estimated 1.8 million workers who are potentially at risk of life-threatening illnesses following exposure to asbestos in their day-to-day work. These people include plasterers, roofers, plumbers, electricians, demolition, maintenance men and joiners but also the less obvious workers such as computer installers, ground workers, landscapers, and fire & burglar alarm installers. Aims To raise personnel awareness of asbestos and the risks associated with it. To comply with the legal requirement of The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.
