How do you make an old car look like new? - Adam takes to a BWM with a pot mitt, then polishes it out...

Polishing paint to a high shine is easier than you think with the right gear. In this video Adam shows how to polish out deep scratches on this BWM 3 series, after first taking to it with a pot mitt scourer.

This is a longer how to video that explains the process, shows what to watch for and talks through the products used and why.

Adam Uses the Rockcar 15 dual action polisher, with the new Autostolz 1 step polish and compound and the Rockcar Blue polishing pad for European paint.

About Autostolz

Autostolz are a manufacturers of high end polishes and polishing pads.  New to the detailing world, all of their polishes and pads are made in Germany and are the highest quality. 

Auto is German for car.  Stolz is German for proud. 

This polishing system is different to others and focuses on the paint.  Not all paint is the same, German Clear coat is hard for example while Japanese clear coat is soft.  Autostolz design their polishing around this, which we think makes sense.  They have a very good one step compound polish that you use with different pads depending on the paint.  It's very simple and very effective.

Particles are made diamond hard to achieve high abrasion while simultaneously significantly finer to produce a high finish shine and gloss.

Autostolz owns Rockcar, Rockcar is their brand for tooling and accessories, Rockcars Polishing machines are very impressive and designed to go with Autotstolz polishing Pads.

Autotstolz only release new products when they feel they have a significant technological advantage in a formula.  They recently launched their "Enhanced Carnauba Wax".  In typical German style they undersell it.  This is seriously impressive stuff.  It's not a ceramic, its synthetically formulated in the lab to improve the shine, durability and longevity of wax and sealants.   It's very easy and safe to use and is a crazy neon yellow.  We are big fans.  

We can't wait to see what Autostolz create next!
