Our process will restore your paint to like new condition without spending over $5,000 on a complete repaint which can end up reducing the value of your car!

The actual process involves several steps using different polishing pads, polishes, and techniques. You could have anything from a one step process, to a four or more step process. It all depends on the condition of the paint and how good YOU want the paint to look. For example, in extremely rare conditions, the paint might only require a one step process because there aren't many imperfections to correct. On the other hand, if the paint is in bad condition, then it will need several steps to remove the imperfections and bring it to the level of maximum gloss. Lets get into more detail about the different steps and whats involved.

Step 1- Removing Paint Imperfections
In order to achieve maximum gloss, you must remove the paint imperfections so light can reflect off the paint properly. Damaged paint looks dull, cloudy, hazy, and doesn't reflect light. This step removes the damaged paint and levels it out. This initial removal of imperfections calls for an aggressive polish, and sometimes a compound. However, we always use the least aggressive method for removing the paint imperfections.

 Step 2- Gloss Enhancement
After the damaged paint has been removed, it is time to restore the gloss and remove any remaining imperfections from the previous step. This is achieved using a mild to moderate polish with a light polishing or finishing pad. The goal of this step is to insure all paint defects and imperfections have been removed. The paint will now have sharp, clear reflections and be in good condition. Many detailers will stop here; however, there is still more gloss to be had.

 Step 3- Final Jeweling
Maximum gloss is attained during this final step. During the jeweling step we use an extremely light polish and a pad with no cut. We use a special technique to burnish the paint to bring out an amazingly glossy finish. This step is a true art and will bring out the best in the paint.

After the paint has been prepped for polishing, we asses the condition of the paint. At this time we decide what products we need to use to perfect the paint. Besides the visual appearance of the paint, several other things need to be taken into consideration when choosing the products to use. Some of these include the type of clear coat, or if there isn't clear coat at all. If the car has been repainted or not, and how hard or soft the paint is.

Once we figure out what products to start with, we test them on an area to see how they perform. If they don't work good enough, then we need to try a different combination. This testing needs to be done for every step to ensure we are using the best combination of polishes and pads.

During the polishing process, the paint is continuously cleaned with paint solvent to remove any oils which may be hiding any remaining imperfections. This way, we are able to ensure the panel is truly perfected. Then, once the polishing process has been completed, the car is rewashed using filtered water from a de- ionized water filtration system. After that, the car is thoroughly inspected in full sunlight and halogen lights from all possible angles to ensure there are no remaining imperfections. If the paint is in the proper condition, then we apply the final coat of wax or sealant.

Our polishing process will not leave holograms or buffer marks in your paint, guaranteed!
