Why do scratches remain after polishing?
Gloss by itself does not mean the surface is ready for finishing. If scratches or preparation marks remain after polishing, check sanding quality, wheel condition, compound amount, cleaning and the choice of first-stage compound before moving to the finishing compound.
Too much compound slows polishing
More compound does not mean better polishing. In the LUXI working process, an overloaded wheel loses controlled contact, suppresses the effect of forming a smooth metal surface layer, replaces it with abrasive action and can slow surface formation. First clean the wheel completely, then add compound with a single touch.
Polishing started too early
A shiny but uneven surface often means major defects were not removed before polishing.



Wrong wheel for LUXI
Incorrect or contaminated wheel choice can cause heat, poor control and uneven gloss.
Ultrasonic cleaning too long
Excessive ultrasonic exposure can affect delicate, coated or fragile surfaces.
