2‑Step Polish

Cut + finish. Addresses moderate defects before refining to a deep gloss.

Cut and refine packages for every body style

Two-step correction is the sweet spot for vehicles with moderate swirling, sanding marks or RIDS that one-step cannot remove. We dedicate a cut pass and a refining pass to each panel.

  • Extensive wash, chemical + mechanical decon, masking and panel prep.
  • First cut with microfibre/wool pads, second refiner with foam polishers.
  • Panel wipe inspection and protection layer to lock in the correction.

When to choose the two-step correction

If light polishing barely scratches the surface of your defects, two-step gives you the cutting power and clarity you need. Look for these cues.

Sign 01

Moderate swirling + RIDS

Scratches visible at a distance or caused by improper washing demand a cut pass before refining.

Sign 02

Dealer-installed holograms

Those rotary buffer trails need a targeted cut to flatten, followed by a haze-removing finish.

Sign 03

Pre-coating perfection

Ceramic coatings lock in whatever is beneath. Two-step resets the paint so coatings perform.

Sign 04

Heavily oxidised paint

Older single-stage or neglected metallic paints need more bite plus a jewelling pass.

What Causes It

Defects are layered—two steps address each layer

Years of automatic washes, bird etching, tree sap and dealer prep marks etch deeply. A soft finishing pass alone won’t pull them out.

  • Improper compounding leaves heavy buffer trails that must be re-cut.
  • Environmental etching from bird droppings or sap penetrates deeper into the clear.
  • Neglected single-stage paint oxidises and requires more than a finesse polish.
Our Process

Two-step correction workflow

01

Prep & masking

Decon wash, clay, iron removal and extensive tape-up to protect trim, rubber and badges.

02

Cut stage

Heavy defect removal using measured passes, forced rotation tools and tailored compounds.

03

Refine & jewell

Soft foam pads and finishing polish restore clarity, remove haze and increase gloss.

04

Protection & inspection

Panel wipe, sealant/coating prep and inspection under high-CRI lighting with you.

Pair it with ceramic coating? We can go straight into coating prep once the correction is complete.
