Machine polishing is how paint is corrected properly — controlled speed, the right pads and compounds, and a measured amount of clear coat removed to level defects safely.
Hand polishing can add gloss but it can't safely remove defects, and it tends to create its own swirls. Machine polishing with the correct pad-and-compound combination removes a controlled, even layer of clear coat so scratches and swirls are levelled out.
We measure the paint before and during to work within safe limits, then refine to a high-gloss finish. It's the core skill behind every correction and coating job we do.
