Paint Priming
"Paint Priming" is a term which has recently entered the lexicon of the detailing industry, and it seems to mean different things to different people.
We have heard it used in terms of priming the paint ready for polishing -- which means doing all the usual prep of using a TFR, detailing clay, panel wipe etc.
But we have also heard it used in terms of priming the paint ready to accept a wax or coating. There are even primer polishes now.
This is not a term we like because it sounds too much like paint primer, which is something completely different. Also, because there is no real agreement on what it means. I suspect that this term has come about that this term has come about as a result of some marketing gimmickry, to make 'cleaning paint' sound more technical.
