does polishing your car remove its clearcoat?
im getting swirls and its becoming unsightful  |
Polishing will eventually remove your clearcoat, yes. But, in the hands of a skilled detailer, the amount of clearcoat to be removed would be minimal. Of course, the deeper the swirls/scratches, the more clearcoat you have to remove to get a completely perfect finish. Less clearcoat means less depth of reflection. With this in mind, there is a compromise to be made...less swirls or more clearcoat.
