Does Polishing Affect Car Paint?
1 Answers
As long as polishing is done appropriately, it will not cause significant damage to the car paint. Polishing does remove a layer of paint, but if the purpose is to enhance the appearance of the paint surface, this removal does not count as damage. Moreover, this minor loss is negligible in terms of the overall thickness of the paint. Polishing is akin to a facial treatment for car paint, primarily used to remove oxidized paint and various contaminants from the car body. The steps for car polishing are as follows: First, thoroughly clean the car body to remove dust particles and prevent secondary damage to the paint. Next, perform a rough sanding of the body, then select an appropriate polishing machine along with polishing wax to conduct a detailed polish on the sanded surface. Finally, after polishing, use a mirror-finish treatment agent to restore the mirror-like effect of the body, followed by waxing to complete the process. Precautions for polishing: First, always go to a professional auto beauty shop for polishing, as not only is the quality of the polishing wax guaranteed, but professional technicians can also minimize potential damage. The thickness of the polishing wax used depends on the condition of the car paint; a wax layer must be applied to complete the final protection, which better serves the purpose of protecting the car. Maintenance during use after polishing directly determines the longevity of the polishing effect. It is essential to control the speed of the polishing machine, not exceeding the selected speed range, and to maintain consistency in the polishing direction and a certain order. Additionally, change the sponge wheel when switching polishing agents, and avoid mixing sponge wheels.
