What happens if you machine polish a car 3 times.....

[R2D2]

Well today marks an end. I found myself machine polishing R2 for the 3rd time in two weeks. The results are amazing but it's time to stop! This is the last R2 detailing photo hopefully for a while. It's been fun though!!

All depends on how much clearcoat you've taken off. Do you do a reading before polishing for the first time?

I think I've reached the point where I need to prove I can stop if I want to!

I think a detailing break is in order

A better shot from this afternoon.

Lol, I correct my work van twice a year & machine polish it every time I wash it. Over the space of the yeah I remove about 3 microns of lacquer. But it is vag, its always protected in C1 & EXO and I'm using a Bigfoot which makes a big difference. As well as knowing how to do it properly. In the machine your using I doubt its cut the lacquer at all apart from shining it up.

Cheers
