Automotive Paint Polishing and Finishing
Finishing
Whether in production or refinishing, automotive sector or transport industry, Mirka Polarshine polishing compounds work together especially well with Mirka polishers and pads - suitable for polishing large areas and polishing out small imperfections. Polarshine products remove marks permanently without leaving any haze or hologram, as it's deep gloss that counts. Our environmentally friendly Polarshine compounds are water based, meaning they leave no unpleasant scent from solvents.
The coarseness grade ranges from Polarshine 3 and 5 at their finest, all the way to Polarshine 35 and 45 at the coarse end of the scale.

Spot Repair
Mirka spot repair abrasives work consistently on top coats, lacquer, clear coat and composite, making imperfections disappear while remaining sharp for a longer time. The consistent scratch pattern also makes spot repairs easier to polish out on the finishing stage.

A better choice for you and the environment
Water-Based Polishes
All polishes that Mirka produces are water-based and produced in Finland. There are many benefits of choosing a water-based polishing compound.
- Effective permanent removal of scratches - Water-based compounds remove scratches permanently. Solvent-based compounds can lose gloss after cleaning the surface with a degreaser and in some cases, they may only temporarily hide the scratches.
- Safer for the operator - No hazardous chemicals
- Sustainable - Water-based polishes are better for the environment and do not contain benzene.
Solvent-based polishes may be effective in the short run, but they are more damaging and harmful.
