Does your vehicles paintwork look like the image below in the sun or under lighting?
What you see are typical swirls marks, these defects are in the clearcoat and add a dullness to the paintwork, also taking away any clarity and depth from the finish.
The main cause of defects like these are due to automated car washes or poor washing and drying techniques.


Gleammachine offer a specialist polishing service to rejuvenate and enhance your vehicles paintwork, this includes a paintwork correction procedure and decontamination using machine polishers, fine diminishing abrasive polishes and proven techiques to remove swirl marks, light scratches, oxidisation, marring and holograms.
Specialist equipment is used to read the depth of paint and clearcoat, from the readings taken this enables me to assess the level of correction achievable and to identify thin areas or re-painted panels.
A typical vehicle from new will read in the region of between 110-140 microns, this is a combination of primer, basecoat and clearcoat, with the corrective procedure around 1-4 microns of clearcoat are removed to level minor to moderate defects, my ethos is to always polish to a safe level, thus providing the opportunity for future maintenance and avoiding clearcoat failure at a later date.

Paintwork correction involves 2-3 stages of polishing, from removing the defects and levelling the paint, to refinement using fine polishes to add gloss, depth and clarity to the finish.
Once the paintwork is refined a protection stage is involved using a wax or sealant to form a protective barrier against the elements.
The above procedures are time consuming, require high levels of concentration and take many years to perfect, for this most correctional details take place over 2-5 days some requiring longer periods dependant on condition.
In most cases where possible, before giving a quote the vehicle is viewed and a test comparison is provided to obtain what is achievable, all of which is non obligational.
If the vehicle cannot be viewed beforehand it is important that an honest description of the condition is given, this enables me to price accordingly and allow adequate time to complete..
