Cleaners and car polishes
Je gebruikt polijstmiddel om kleine oneffenheden in de autolak weg te werken. Het verwijdert lichte krassen, waterplekken, oxidatie en het doffe uiterlijk. Polijstmiddel bevat fijne schuurdeeltjes die voorzichtig de bovenste laag van de lak bewerken. Het resultaat is een glanzende, gladde lak die er weer uitziet als nieuw.
Ja, het is goed om je auto regelmatig te polijsten. Het houdt de lak in topconditie en voorkomt achteruitgang. Polijsten verwijdert kleine auto lak beschadigingen voordat ze erger worden. Het behoudt ook de waarde van je auto. Let wel op dat je niet te vaak polijst met grove middelen, dit kan de lak dunner maken.
De meeste auto's hebben één tot twee keer per jaar een polijstbeurt nodig. Dit hangt af van hoe vaak je rijdt, waar je parkeert en in welke omstandigheden. Auto's die veel buiten staan hebben vaker onderhoud nodig.
Polijstmiddel werkt correctief en verwijdert oneffenheden uit de lak. Wax beschermt juist de lak tegen invloeden van buitenaf . Polijstmiddel bevat schuurdeeltjes, wax niet. Na het polijsten breng je altijd een beschermende laag aan, zoals wax of sealant. Zo behoud je het mooie resultaat langer.
Polijstmiddel kun je zowel met de hand als met een machine aanbrengen. Met de hand werkt goed voor kleine oppervlakten en lichte beschadigingen. Een polijstmachine geeft echter betere resultaten en maakt het werk veel makkelijker. Voor het beste resultaat raden we altijd een machine aan, vooral bij grotere oppervlakten.
What is car polish?
Car polish is a specialised product that removes minor imperfections from your car's paintwork. It contains fine abrasive particles that gently work the top layer of the paint. This removes light scratches, water spots, and dull patches from your paintwork.
At Carclean, we stock a wide range of different types of car polish. For tackling deep scratches, oxidation, and heavy swirl marks, we have heavier-duty variants. Looking for a product to add those final touches? Choose finer polishes. These ensure a perfect finish.
The difference between products lies in the grit size of the abrasive particles. The coarser the product, the more paint it removes. With the right car polish, your car regains that showroom shine. It doesn't matter if your car has been parked outside for years. A proper treatment with car polish works wonders.
Which car polish do I need for my car?
Choosing the right car polish depends on your paint's condition. Does your car only have some dull spots? A fine polish will suffice. Are there visible scratches in the paintwork? Then you'll need a coarser product first.
For light damage, use one-step polishes. These products combine removing imperfections with applying protection. For heavily damaged paintwork, you work in stages. First use a coarse compound, then a finer polish, and finally a finishing product.
Also consider your car's paint type. Hard paints from German car brands, for example, require different car polishes than the softer paints from Japanese cars. If in doubt, you can always contact our specialists. They're happy to help you choose the right car polish.
What do I need to polish my car?
To polish your car, you need more than just car polish. Working by hand is possible, but a polishing machine makes the work much easier and gives better results. At Carclean.com, you'll find complete sets that let you get started right away.
Besides car polish, you'll need different polishing pads. Wool pads for coarse work, foam pads for fine finishing. Don't forget microfibre cloths to remove excess product. And of course, good car shampoo to thoroughly clean your car first.
Proper preparation is important. Wash your car thoroughly first and ensure all contaminants are removed. Also remove stubborn dirt with a deironizer and clay. Then you can start applying your car polish. Always work in the shade and ensure the paintwork isn't too warm.
