What should be a quality car polishing machine?

Each of us noticed the fact that after several months of operation the paint on the car becomes less shiny and even pale. The reason for this is the appearance of various microcracks, which were formed due to road dust. The latter penetrates into the paintwork when driving at high speeds. As a rule, even at 60 kilometers per hour, the paint is eaten by various dirt and small dust particles flying in the air.

How can I fix this? The only way out is polishing. Some car owners use old rags and napkins as a tool. However, do not forget that such devices are not able to completely eliminate microcracks on the paintwork. To achieve the desired effect, you should use a special polishing machine.

But how to distinguish a quality device from substandard? A good machine for polishing a car must first have a reducer with a large ratio. The optimum power of the electric motor is approximately 1200-1400 watts. In this case, the rotational speed of the disk should not exceed 2900-3000 rpm. Too speedy cars for polishing the body of the car will simply wipe the paint along with the dust and everything that was formed there.

Now widely available devices that have the ability to work with universal attachments. Thanks to them, you qualitatively polish not only the body, but also the glass. By the way, you can handle not only the front and side windows, but also the surface of the headlights. If they are yellowed (this often happens after long-term use of the car on long-distance routes), the car polishing machine will carefully eliminate this deposit and return to them a beautiful pristine appearance.

It is also worth noting that branded tools can be used not only as a means for polishing the body, but also for processing various metal surfaces, their grinding and care. Some other devices can work with wooden surfaces. Then your machine will always be used on the farm.

As a rule, modern devices can work with several disks of different diameters. Thus, it is possible to produce high-quality polishing of the body in hard-to-reach places. At the service center for this work will require several thousand rubles. Well, we'll come back to prices a little later, but for now, let's look at the materials for polishing.

At the moment, a wide demand for protective polishing agents for cars. Most often they are made in the form of pastes, less often in the form of aerosols. Such substances smoothly adjoin to a surface of a paint and varnish covering, fill with the weight of a microcrack, thereby removing all dirt, and create a protective film. Thanks to this, the paint the next few thousand kilometers will be protected from dust. If you regularly process the body with such substances, and as a tool to use a special machine, you can save all the properties of the coating even after several decades.
