When Does Paint Need Polishing?

Paint may need polishing when it looks hazy, dull, swirled, oxidized, or covered in water spot etching that washing cannot remove.

Polishing levels the surface very slightly to improve clarity and gloss. It should be done thoughtfully, not aggressively.

Protection after polishing helps preserve the improved finish and makes future maintenance easier.

If a ceramic coating is planned, polishing may be recommended before the coating is installed.
