  1. Paint correction is also known as swirl mark removal, machine polishing or buffing. The definition of paint correction is the removal of all imperfections in paintwork, such as scratches, water marks, dried bug remains and fading to reproduce an as new condition or better. The process is undertaken by a professional detailer or someone with quite a few years experience in understanding how the structure of paint is applied on a vehicle. It involves the use of a machine polisher, a selection of abrasive compounds and an assortment of buffing pads, together with regular checks with a paint depth gauge whilst polishing, to keep record of exactly how much paint is being abraded away. Why Consider Paint Correction? A car’s paint has to endure a lot of challenges thrown up by the environment ·Traffic grime and grit · Tree sap, industrial fallout, bird muck, dead bugs · Road Tar ·Water spots (Rain-waterspots) ·People brushing against the car with their clothing or bags ·Poor machine or hand polishing techniques ·Cheap and nasty car washes Sadly all of these things can leave the finish of a car looking less than perfect and at worst, dull, faded and covered in light scratches, swirls and other marring. Those things detract from your car’s appearance and ultimately reduce its value. Will Removed Marks Reappear? NO. Any marring is permanently removed by our paint correction techniques, so the marks cannot reappear. New marks may appear over time (we can’t stop future scratches), but we’ll provide you with free simple advice to help limit future damage caused by wrong technique of washing and making sure you keep the paintwork in top condition all year round. At NEW AGE POLISH our services are designed around you. We provide car care packages to suit your needs, so that we are able to polish your car whenever you feel it is needed.

Power socket : Yes (Although im not sure if its allowed to be used lol) Water Supply : Plain old tap with bucket (cant connect hose...) Pressure Washer : Worx Hydroshot 20v - Honestly the Worx HS is fine, but abit greedy for more power, especially for use with foam cannon. Tried diluting HS Foam dispenser for 1:5, half the car always finish... like waste - considering Karcher K5 Full Control & MJJC Foam Cannon !! (although i better check the usage of power socket with condo MA)... - Rinse , Foam & 2 Bucket with Mitt 😉 Polisher : Makita 9237C Rotary (Any bros interested to buy over, let me know !! used 2 times lol) - Tried doing by car hood, quite like the outcome... But honestly i gave up doing it myself for Paint Correction - Wah... but me doing in condo basement... its like got echoes... So loud !! Smooth power though... and my stamina got to me after 1 hood... lol - Dont mind trying DA, But seems so expensive !! Seen the FLex one Auto Maxima selling for $1400.... Also considered the Megs DA Powerdrill thingy.. but replacement pads seem like an issue - End up the next few days did part by part by hand... use the Makita neighbours all see me like zoo animal !! Products (Shampoo, Polish, Wax, Compound, Towels) : - Megs Wash & Wax Shampoo (in Worx HS) , Autoglym SRP, 3M Rubbing Compound, Megs Ultimate Compound, Soft 99 Wax (S99 wax makes my finger smell for the whole damn day !!)

Dont mind trying Turtle Wax, Adams, Sonax, Autoglym and especially Chemical Guys !! (Although Adams, CG seems quite rare & expensive in SG) Interior Trim : Currently using a makeup brush to brush the dust together with my Dyson V11... Once in awhile Brush in Dettol diluted Antiseptic (yes no joke) and wipe with MF towel.. Thinking to Invest in Wet & Dry Vac like Karcher WD3 to suck up all the solution and dust !!😆 Also, Considering a Karcher SC2 for better faster better cleaning, and can use in the house too !!
