TECHNIK 4 – SIGNATURE DETAIL
Paint Distortion (Orange Peel) Removal
UP TO 100% CORRECTION FACTOR
The main goal of this detail is to eliminate the inconsistent, distorted finish found in current clear coats. The focus is on improving the factory finish achieving a far superior standard.
High points found on modern paint systems are levelled from the clear coat (lacquer) using a variety of specialist tools.
With a 100% success rate you can be guaranteed that signature Technik finish.
Why choose the Technik 4 Signature Detail?
By completely releveling the clearcoat, refining and polishing it in five stages, “orange peel” is removed in peaks and troughs in the clearcoat. This involves dry sanding, wet sanding, and paint correction, in order to achieve a glass like finish. This treatment is perfect for cars you want enhance and value many years to come. This process removes around 15-20 microns from your car’s clearcoat. Automotive paint is around 260 microns on average, so this process removes less than 10% of the thickness. Paint protection film is recommended after this process.

About Car Detailing
What is detailing?
The phrase “detailing” is sometimes misunderstood and confused with valeting, a far more basic service. “The washing of the outside / inside to eliminate visible dust, dirt, and grime, leaving the surfaces clean and glossy” is how valeting is defined. Paint damage and surface flaws are frequently caused by wrong cleaning procedures, despite the fact that it is a relatively easy and straightforward task. We do not only repair this damage, but also exceeds this, resulting in a “better-than-new” finish. “Time is the art of beautifying a car.” This refers to not only the time spent working on your automobile, but also the time spent gathering experience and knowledge that allows us to give a service that complements the beauty, elegance, and sophistication of the vehicles we work on.
Benefits of PPF
Protection
Our PPF protects your paintwork from chips, minor scuffs and scrapes, as well as environmental variables like insect spatter and flaws caused by inadequate washing practices.
Enhancement
Our PPF provides excellent optical clarity and is simple to care for. When properly cared for, it maintains a depth of shine that resembles freshly detailed paint for many years.
Self Healing
A self-healing layer is included in our PPF. Stone chips, scuffs, scratches, and swirls that do not penetrate this layer vanish when heated with hot tap water, the car’s engine, or even the sun.
Replacement
You won’t be off the road for long if a panel needs to be replaced. Unlike typical paint repairs, which can take days or even weeks, most panels can be changed in a matter of hours.
Time & Convenience
If a panel needs to be changed, it can be done quickly; most panels may be replaced in a matter of hours, whereas paint repairs can take days or weeks.
Cost
Because our PPF is custom-made to fit each panel, it may be replaced separately, requiring little or no panel stripping and no additional paint to integrate adjacent panels.
How paint damage is inflicted?
If dirt, dust, and grime are not properly removed from the car, the cleaning process will rub and grind these particles into the paint’s surface, causing damage. Before touching your car, sponges may have collected dirt and grit from other automobiles. This issue causes faults known as “swirl markings,” as shown below. Component degradation is another negative effect of improper cleaning practices. The wheels and bottom components of the car are cleaned with harmful acidic solutions intended specifically for scrubbing concrete. These cause rusty brake callipers, wheel nuts, exhaust tips, and brake disc surroundss. As an exclusive car presentation service, valeting firms also offer a “Polish” or “Machine polish.” The products, processes, and techniques utilized in these so-called “complete valets” inflict more harm to the paintwork than good. Circular scratches and apparent grooves in the vehicle’s top coat are the outcome. To eliminate the paint flaws, very abrasive substances and incorrect use of a rotary polishing machine are used. They remove a large portion of the vehicle’s clear coat while leaving “holograms” and buffer trails behind them.
What about new cars?
Unfortunately, we occasionally acquire new cars with dealer-caused faults. The hasty removal of the factory applied wax and protective wrapping during the PDI “Pre Delivery inspection” creates paint flaws such as swirl marks and tiny scratches. RaceTechnik Detailing provides a service that will not only repair but also exceed your aesthetic expectations for your vehicle.
