Polishing is one of the oldest technologies used to smoothen and create a reflective surface. It consists of removing or smoothing out grinding or lapping lines, scratches or other surface defects in order to decrease the surface roughness. To obtain the perfect finish, an abrasive, such a polish, is used.

Polishing with ecoshine polish f2

ecoshine polish f2 is a super efficient cutting-polishing compound. This is due to our diminishing abrasive that breaks down when exposed to friction. This process allows the removal of scratches, dullness and medium to coarse sanding marks. It may also be used on both oxidised and new well dried paints.

Formulated as a diminishing abrasive, this means that  when exposed to friction, ecoshine polish f2 begins to break apart. This process of dissolving is known as ‘diminishing’.

ecoshine polish f2 will leave the paint uneven at the beginning stage, as it is imparting additional scratches of its own when the polish is still fresh. This is one of the key features of a diminishing polish. As ecoshine polish f2 becomes finer and finer, it goes to work by removing the scratches it created in order to level the paint

However if the product is continued to be used (over working the product), it will degrade the quality of the finish. When using ecoshine polish f2 to remove paint defects (such as compounding or cutting the paint) priming the pad with product as well as reducing pressure and speed throughout the polishing cycle will be beneficial.

For added benefit, always apply a coating after polishing or compounding to seal in the paintwork, reduce any additional scratches and to maintain that awesome shine.
