Machine Polishing Scratch Removal Video
This Ford Kuga came in covered in scratches, which would cause recharges on an end-of-lease inspection. Therefore, it would be important to get them addressed before the car is returned to the lease company.
Our aim here is not to polish the whole car up to look like new, but to just remove or reduce the scratches, enough so that it can pass inspection.
We begin polishing with a coarse (reducing) compound to cut back the paintwork, before moving on to finer grades to dive a shine and remove any circular buffer marks. Then it's finished with a coating of wax to protect the paintwork.
