Wet-Sanding & Polishing
Wet-sanding, machine compounding, and polishing to remove orange peel and scratches and produce a smooth, mirror-like finish at Fritz Auto Body in Abbotsford, BC.
What This Service Involves
Wet-sanding and polishing refines a painted surface after it has been applied. Wet-sanding flattens the clear coat to remove orange peel texture and surface imperfections, and machine compounding and polishing bring out depth, clarity, and gloss.
This is the finishing step that turns a freshly painted surface into a smooth, mirror-like finish.

Our Approach
We use progressive grits of fine sandpaper to wet-sand the clear coat, followed by multi-stage machine compounding and polishing. This process flattens the surface and brings out depth, clarity, and gloss. It is most often the final step after paint refinishing.
