Machine polishing is one of the most labor-intensive aspects of detailing, and critical to realizing your shine potential! Paint defects reduce the level of shine/gloss possible, and can even result in a hazy/cloudy finish. These defects result in an uneven surface, one that diffuses & reflects light negatively. These defects can include: swirls, random isolated scratches, water spot etching, bird droppings, buffer holograms, and oxidation.
