Experience The Best Mobile Metal Polishing and Detailing Service for Your Rig in QLD
Before we begin any work on your pride and joy, our team will carefully inspect it for any areas that require special attention. We take note of any scratches, dents, or other issues to ensure we provide the best possible service.
Next, we use a high-pressure washer to remove any loose dirt and debris from your rig, making it easier to clean. This pre-wash also helps to prevent scratches and damage to the paint.
At Heavy Boys Detailing, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional results in metal polishing. Whether it’s restoring the gleam to a weathered piece or perfecting a new project, our process combines precision, skill, and attention to detail. Here’s a step-by-step guide to our metal polishing process, showcasing how we turn dull metal into a mirror-like masterpiece.
Step 1: Surface Preparation – The Sanding Process
Every great polish starts with proper surface preparation. Sanding is critical to remove imperfections like scratches, rust, or corrosion from the metal surface. Depending on the condition of the metal, we choose the right grit sandpaper.
• Coarse Grits (80-120): Used for heavily scratched or corroded areas.
• Medium Grits (220-400): Smooth out marks left by coarser grits and refine the surface.
• Fine Grits (600-1000+): Prepare the metal for the polishing phase by creating a smooth base.
Our team uses specialized tools and hand-sanding techniques to ensure evenness across the surface. The key here is patience and consistency—rushing this step can compromise the final result.
Step 2: Buffing – Laying the Foundation
Once the sanding is complete, we transition to the buffing stage. Buffing removes any residual sanding marks and begins the process of creating a smooth, reflective surface.
We apply a cutting compound designed for metalwork and use buffing wheels or pads to achieve a uniform finish. This stage requires finesse, as applying too much pressure can lead to uneven results. Buffing sets the foundation for the high-gloss shine that comes later.
Step 3: Polishing – The Finishing Touch
Polishing is where the magic happens. Using a high-quality metal polish, we enhance the shine and bring out the natural beauty of the metal. This step involves:
1. Application: A small amount of polish is applied evenly across the surface.
2. Polishing Tools: Depending on the size and shape of the item, we use microfiber cloths, rotary tools, or polishing pads.
3. Technique: Polishing requires precise motions to ensure every inch is covered, leaving behind a flawless shine.
At Heavy Boys Detailing, we use industry-leading products and techniques to achieve a mirror-like finish that stands the test of time.
Step 4: Protective Coating – Preserving the Shine
To keep the polished surface looking its best, we apply a protective coating. This step prevents oxidation, tarnishing, and everyday wear.
This final touch ensures your metal stays as brilliant as the day it was polished, even in harsh environments like Queensland’s coastal climate.
