A multi stage machine polish is given to eliminate light swirls/scratches, oxidation and dull and hazy paintwork that is damaged over the years by poor wash technique, bad contact and strong chemicals. The first machine polishing stage is a medium-strong cut compound used in conjunction with a polishing/cutting pad that restores the paint and can remove from 60%- 90% of the surface defects depending on condition. The second set is a much milder pass to refine the finish and give the much desired ‘jewelled’ look.
Benefits
- Eliminates light swirls / scratches
- Removes oxidation and dull hazy paintwork
- Removes 60% – 90% of surface defects
- Leaves a shiny, ‘jewelled’ finish

It begins with the same comprehensive wash process as our protection detail, including the chemical application to remove tar, iron, and tree sap, followed by claying of the bodywork, glass, and plastics to ensure a smooth, contaminant-free surface.
Machine polishing is then performed using a medium abrasive compound to address defects, followed by refining compounds to correct swirl marks, birdlime stains on the lacquer, and light scratches. This process reduces imperfections by 60%–90%, greatly improving the vehicle’s appearance.
Finally, the panels are thoroughly wiped down and inspected, and the bodywork is meticulously cleansed before applying a high-quality protective coating. This ensures a long-lasting, flawless finish and durable protection for your vehicle.
