Paint correction

Why  disappear  the gloss of the paint?

A lot of car-washing centres use cheap chemical products in its work, it washes perfectly but its composition is very alkaline, corrosive to the paintwork, chrome and rubber of the car.

This reagent works well not only with dirt, but also with a paintwork, as a result the color of the car gradually fades.

Sponges and wash cloths are not updated normally, and the grains of sand that get into them leave scratches on the paintwork.

All this influences in the appearance of the car, therefore  your vehicle loses its gloss.

What are the types of paint corrections?

Paint correction is a restoration procedure for which polishing pastes containing abrasives of various sizes are used.

There are two main types of paint correction, restoration polishing and buffing polishing.

Restoration polish - remove deep scratches, it almost becomes a polish of  factory (with the exception of damage caused in  the painting). Restorative polishing takes much longer than finishing polishing, as the action takes place in several stages, from the placement of polishing pastes from a larger abrasive to a smaller one.

Buffing polish - is softer than restoration polish but also restores the gloss of the paint, removing scratches  and holograms.

Is it possible to damage the paintwork while polishing?

There is a risk if non-professionals will make this work. For car paint restoration it is essential to perform a mathematical calculation where the main value is  the thickness of your car paintwork. Based on these data, the degree of impact, work preparation, circles and pastes and the selected polishing procedure will be calculated.

The workspace where the work will be done must be clean, dry and bright, which is extremely rare in car-washing companies.
