As long as it is done properly, polishing will not cause significant damage. Apply wax evenly to a specific area of the paint surface and control the polishing machine speed between 1200-2000 RPM. Initially, apply moderate to high pressure on the polishing pad to polish the paint surface evenly. Observe the paint surface, and once the sandpaper marks are noticeably removed, reduce the pressure to eliminate wax traces and restore some gloss to the paint surface. After polishing, use a microfiber cloth to clean off any residual coarse wax and dust from the paint surface. Below is some information about polishing: 1. Polishing does not improve the dimensional accuracy or geometric shape precision of the workpiece but aims to achieve a smooth surface or mirror-like gloss. Sometimes, it is also used to remove gloss. Typically, a polishing wheel is used as the polishing tool. 2. A polishing wheel is usually made of multiple layers of canvas, felt, or leather stacked together, with metal discs clamping both sides. The wheel edge is coated with a polishing compound consisting of finely ground abrasives and grease evenly mixed.
