[quotel paint correction can transform a vehicle's appearance - machine polishing can remove light scratches, swirl marks, blemishe[/quote]
Paint correction is about polishing (meaning - cutting away - all the unwanted such as oxidized paint, with heavy cutting such as compound (level 12 cut) or Polish a milder version ( about level 4 cut) going deeper to remove scratches & contaminants - such as swirls, oxidations, water marks

as eye is the window to our soul, so does the headlamp is the eye to a car.... often we judge the car basing on the headlamp,
usually it will cost a bomb to replace them... in regards of whether the car make from perodua to porsche...as I have share in my prevous blog
1st restoring work
a barely 5 years old Myvi - head lamp charred - turn yellowish - aka oxidized
she has been polish every years since after the first year
shall we hire doc headlamp?
modern car head lamp are commonly made of compression-moulded or injection moulded plastic,
2 factor contributing to such oxidations,
firstly the roadside foam wash (harsh chemicals & sponge use during washes) often this sponge soaked & filled with dirt, grim and sand that is not wash away became - TA DA sand paper) try to send for just one wash on just detail black car and check out the finishing
this is the 2 most thrased exterior part of the car (our halogen uses heat the filament to a greater degree create light during night use -Reflector optics) and sun during the day..and combine with the roadside sand paper wash..ta da.. it is just like scrapping off the UV resistance protector, worst still if it is Projector (polyellipsoidal) with a High-intensity discharge (HID) headlamps
With just optimum Hyper spray compound with optimum double sided wool pad for deeper correction - at 1500 speed 4 passes
or optimum Hyper spray polish with optimum double sided foam pad for for removing the lighter correction -at 1500 speed 4 passes
conclusion
as a Detailer of DIY home detailer..you need to know how much to removed & what is & not to be removed.....ask it shall be given seek & you shall find
check it out
ladies and gentleman ...let me present the oxidazed part
OHSP + OPT Dbl Sided Foam = ta da
higher part finishing
close up - most oxidation removed but the deeper oxidations aka cracks still visible
moving on to the OHSC + OPT DBL SIDED wool pad + passes at 1500 rpm = the real ta da
kindly observed the lower part of the head lamp
look again the polish side
imagine on takes us 3 minutes to turn this around, pls remember to tape off your painted surface such as side panel, hood & bumper area
we actually did a50/50 comparison area on the hood, as witness by all participant...how much of each combination can cut aka polish away
the thumb of the rule always start with the least aggressive way
remember before
ta da
we actually left as it is ...opps
as one of our friend drove about 100 kmm to attend our clinic
and i promise to look into his severely oxidized paint
this ride always expose the rear back, as his car porch only allows to cover that much...resulting bad oxidation as the rear hood
after OHSC + Dbl Sided Wool pad
at the 50/50 area
[/IMG]
after ohsp + opt dbl sided foam pad
the rear
before
after
and we found out some evidence of paint transference - therefore we opticoated it
moving to the front hood
after OHSP + OPT Dbl side foam
ta da
