 Swirl
marks are caused by sanding or high-speed buffing processes. Swirl
marks are actually microscopic scratches in the vehicle finish.
These tiny scratches have not been finely “smoothed out”.
They run in different directions and when direct sunlight makes
contact with the vehicle, the light rays bounce off at a different
angle than a smooth surface would, causing the finish to appear
dulled, faded, scratched, swirled or discolored. The technical term
for this problem, is called “refraction”.
Vehicle scratches can often be a nuisance since
preserving a vehicle’s original finish is a very important
aspect of maintaining the re-sale value. We have surprised hundreds
of clients by removing the most stubborn scratches. In many cases,
our hand polishing techniques have proven effective.
Severe swirl marks and scratches require high-speed
buffing and or wet-sanding in order to achieve desired results.
Auto Claim Technology takes pride in avoiding such processes at
all costs. However, this is the prescribed method for such repairs.
This process will restore maximum luster within the vehicle’s
finish and, in most cases, will not void any manufacturer’s
warranty.
