The Auto Finesse Revitalise System V2 Car Polishing Kit is a three-step machine polishing paint correction programme and the solution to perfecting your paintwork with professional-level results at home.
Developed in conjunction with our DPX Machine Polisher and MPX Dual Action Machine Polisher – specifically to make paint restoration, correction and refinement as straightforward as possible – this color-coded system features three-grades of compound and foam machine polishing pads specially selected to work in harmony and revitalize any gloss paint finish, removing oxidation, holograms, water spots, etching and even swirl marks.
All paint correction processes use abrasive polishes and compounds to level down the top layer of clearcoat (or single stage topcoat) over and around any flaws, until they reach the bottom of the deepest defect. Rather than removing the defect directly, this takes away a microscopic layer of the entire area around it, until the defect simply disappears. This action has the effect of levelling out and smoothing the very top layer through mechanical abrasion, a process known as ‘cutting’. Polishes and compounds are available in various grades, which refers to the coarseness of the abrasive particles suspended in their solution. This is directly proportional to the amount of surface that the particular product is expected to take away, or its ‘level of cut’. A coarse polish or compound, like Revitalise No:3 Restoring Compound, has a higher level of cut, than a fine compound, because it cuts away more of the surface as it is used.
Also important is the aggressiveness of the machine polishing pads you use. Polishing pads come in various grades and the denser the foam used in their construction, the more these abrasive pads will cut the surface when used in conjunction with an abrasive compound. Harder, denser foam is used for cutting simply because it brings more abrasion, more surface contact, and with it more heat. Lighter, less dense foam pads will be more suited to paint refinement and finishing. The very reason we’ve color coded our pads and compounds to ensure they make the perfect combination for each stage of cutting and refining.
Our three grades of Revitalise Compounds and Revitalise Foam Pads range from a coarse restoring compound and pad combo (orange), through to a medium polishing compound and pad combo (yellow), to a fine refining compound and pad combo (red), giving you the all the options needed to tackle everything from light oxidation to heavier scratches and swirl marks. Simply follow the 1-2-3 system, and you can’t go wrong.
Revitalise Compounds are for correction and refinement only, and contain no waxes or fillers, making this line-up the perfect choice for defect removal and refinement prior to application of any protection layer, including ceramic coatings.
The Revitalise V2 kit contains all the extra essentials – from Pad Prime to Masking Tape – needed to see you through the polishing process.
