Re: Dual Action Polisher on Storm White Paint

Just spoken to a professional who confirms that it can be treated the same as normal paint.

Re: Dual Action Polisher on Storm White Paint

Oh, cool.

I rattle around all year in mine. Have actually got a service booked with Japex in the morning who also have new rear tyres for me to fit. Looking at the forecast, balding rear 275s ain't gonna be perfect for my journey there.

Yeah, I'm on that forum, but not very active.

Re: Dual Action Polisher on Storm White Paint

As I've already said, I've done it loads of times and know what I'm doing.

I'm just asking about the pearlescent paint specifically as I've no experience of that and just thought I'd ask a question (which I now kinda regret).

Re: Dual Action Polisher on Storm White Paint

The short answer is that it doesn't have anything like the shine of my car and bike which I polished last year. The paint also looks very orange peely which may or may not improve.

I think I'll contact a professional and seek their advice just to be sure.

Re: Dual Action Polisher on Storm White Paint

I don't really know what to say to you. I've removed swirls, scratches and all manor of imperfections on cars and motorbikes with mine. It's a great bit of kit and is a doddle to use as it's dual action. The professional car detailing/paint correction industry is pretty much built around machine pol...
