In order to keep your car shiny, you will choose polishing, but under what circumstances should you do polishing? Can polishing be done for a long time? What are the pros and cons of polishing?
Comparison before and after polishing and waxing
Let’s first understand the principle of polishing machine:
The principle of polishing is to eliminate the oxide layer on the car body paint surface through static electricity, friction, polishing and other methods, thereby improving the brightness of the car body paint surface. Use a sander when polishing. Under the action of the polishing disc, the polishing machine reacts with the car paint to generate static electricity. At the same time, the heat of the car body softens the paint film and enlarges the pores. In this case, static electricity will suck out the dirt in the pores on the paint surface. The polishing disc will grind away the oxide layer on the paint surface and flatten and fill the small scratches. At the same time, some components of the polishing agent will be added to the paint. In order to reduce changes in the film, polishing treatment can improve the paint surface defects and make the paint surface smooth and bright.
Benefits of polishing:
Polishing can remove stains, oxide layers, etc. on the surface of the car paint, restoring the color and beauty of the vehicle. Especially for light-colored car paint such as white, the car will obviously feel much newer after polishing, making the paint surface as bright as a mirror. , gorgeous and dazzling.
Disadvantages of polishing:
Polishing will make the car body paint thinner. One polishing will reduce the paint thickness by about 5 microns, and the total thickness of the vehicle varnish layer is generally about 50 mm. Although waxing, sealing, etc. will be done after polishing, it will make up for the thickness of the vehicle. . However, it cannot replace the original car paint, so polishing it more times will make the paint become thinner and thinner, affecting the value of the car.
Solve the following problems:
· Scratches and minor imperfections;
· Paint oxidation and fading;
· stains and dirt;
· Paint dents and bumps;
· Lampshade surface halo;

Frequent car polishing and waxing will not significantly affect your car's original paint!!!
In fact, regular buffing and waxing can help protect your paint and keep it in good condition. However, there are some things to remember:
1. Correct Techniques: When polishing and waxing your car, it is important to use the correct techniques and tools. Applying too much pressure, using abrasives, or using the incorrect polishing pad can damage the paint.
2. Frequency: While regular buffing and waxing is beneficial, too much frequency can wear away the clear coat over time. Varnish is the protective layer on the paint surface, and over-polishing can cause it to thin over time. It is generally recommended to buff and wax your car a few times a year, or as needed depending on the condition of the paint.
3. Paint condition: If your car's paint is already in poor condition, with deep scratches, fading, or other serious issues, power polishing may not fully restore it. In some cases, professional paint correction or repainting may be required. Assess the condition of the paint and determine the appropriate level of polish required.
Overall, polishing and waxing your car regularly can enhance the appearance and protection of your car's original paint. It's important to strike a balance and avoid excessive or unnecessary polishing, which may cause damage over time.
