After and in depth clean and decomtamination of your vehicles paint work we perform a 2 stage machine polish, with most paint finishes this will remove up to and aim for 80% of defects, scratches and swirls with the cutting stage, we follow this up with a refining polish to remove the haze from the cutting process to give you an uniform finish to the highest of standards.

Inspection: Inspect the paint with, a paint depth gauge and also strong light source (e.g., LED) to identify the extent of defects.

Tape Off: Mask off plastic trim, rubber seals, and badges with painter's tape to prevent staining or damage from the polisher.
