Front fender polishing
The fender catches sand from the front wheel, so the clear coat here goes matte first. A small panel — quick and inexpensive to bring back. The clear coat is at its thinnest on the arch edge, so there we work at low speed with a soft pad. After polishing the wing stops being a matte patch next to the door.

About this service
The front wing is a target for sand thrown up by the front wheel and gravel from oncoming traffic. That is why the clear coat here goes matte sooner than on the door or the bonnet, and fine marks appear along the curve of the arch. From the side, the wing ends up as a matte patch next to a glossy door.
The thinnest spot is the arch edge: the clear coat there is thinner than on the flat of the wing. So the master measures the coating first and works the edge at low speed with a soft pad. Before that the wing is washed, decontaminated and degreased, and the arch and joints are masked. Then come the cutting and polishing passes, the finish and protection.
A wing is a small panel, so the work takes 40–50 minutes and is inexpensive. The dullness and fine marks along the arch come out, and the wing matches the door in gloss again. If the headlights next to it have gone cloudy, they can be polished and covered with film in the same visit.
The crew arrives with quiet equipment and everything needed for the job, power included — a villa driveway works just as well as an office car park.
