The Story of Polishing Compound
When most car polishers faced a lot of problems in 2012, the biggest problem was that polished paint was easy to leave subtle scratches, which made a lot of people felt
very disappointed. Because the polishing compound at that time was a round shape, this characteristics often caused the round polishing compound would crack under
the operation with polishing machine leaving scratches on car surfaces. Therefore, Seol Jaecheol worked on developing a triangular polishing compound, which had a
greater degree of abrasion, great reduction of fine scratches left after polishing. As a result of developing such a product, “Refinish1,2,3” were born. However, polishing
masters needed to use the combination of“Refinish1,2,3” in this series., which was very troubling.
So, Seol Jaecheol continuously wanted to upgrade the technology of polishing compound. Although he countlessly developed and tested, he ended with failure every time. But in the meantime he
never gave up. One night he sat on a chair to look at the moon, and he was surprised to find the initial stage of the moon into a crescent-shaped. At that time he was very pleased to shout: "Crescent-shaped, yes, that is what we are going to use to make our polishing compound. It will be the strongest abrasive in the world.” So he started a lot of experiments, and finally developed the R-U polishing compound.
Reasons to Polish Your Car's Paint
Many people believe that cars come off the assembly line with perfect paint. That's far from the case. There are many conditions that cause minor paint flaws requiring additional finishing work. Dust nibs (small particles that land in the paint while it is still wet) are a good example. Most car manufacturers take care of these problems at the factory using abrasive finishing materials. Sometimes it is the car dealer who recognizes the flaw and fixes it.
Repairing minor paint flaws through polishing is not harmful to the paint system unless you remove too much paint. If more than 50% of the clearcoat finish is removed, you stand a good chance of premature paint system failure. If more than 75% of the clearcoat finish is removed, you will experience immediate paint system failure. It can be a very fine dance between success and failure.
Here's a general rule to follow. If a scratch or other flaw can be felt with your fingernail, it's too deep to be completely removed through polishing.That's not to say that polishing won't help hide the flaw; it will. Take a look at the following 3M diagram showing paint layers and minor scratches (marring) in the clearcoat surface. These scratches can be removed completely through polishing, because more than 50% of the clearcoat would remain.
Non-clearcoat finishes have the same basic rules.You should not remove more than 50% of the top coat (color coat) finish when repairing a scratch or other paint flaws.
It is important to understand how a polish can be used to "hide" scratches and other micro marring.In the two diagrams above, you can see that the scratches have hard edges that run at a 30 to 60 degree downward slope. It is the hard edge and angle of a scratch that creates a perfect opportunity for light reflection. It is this reflection that enhances the visibility of the scratch. A good polish rounds the edges of scratches, reducing reflection.
Your Guide in Choosing the Best Product for your Car
You’re walking down the street and something caught your attention, a shiny, brand-new looking car. Surely this has happened to all of us, we would of course – have a second look. Just like when we see someone beautiful and sexy, we just can’t help but take notice. For someone who owns the car, we want to have the best ride in town and it gives us pride to know that when we drive – people admire our car. How do we do that? Well, have a car that is clean, has a neat paint job and shiny of course. One of the latest buzz about the car care industry is glass coating, this is now the major competitor of the traditional car wax.So for us who are new to this term, we may ask, what is the difference between car wax and car glass coating? Isn’t it the same car polish?Well, here are the basic things that one should know to be well familiarized with the two.
What is Car Wax?
Car wax is something that we are very familiar with, it is a substance that is primarily used after the car has been washed. It is then rubbed onto the body or the exterior of the car. Then a little more wiping off and you will definitely see the shine. Now these car waxes also contain chemicals that serve as the protective layer of your car. This usually lasts a couple of weeks and even months depending on how the car is being used. These types of waxes are mostly made from natural waxes (carnauba wax) and other secret formulas to keep your car clean, shiny, protected and good looking.
What is Car Coating?
For car coating, it may seem a lot like car wax by name and in a way – yes that is correct. Though, this indeed something that has been creating a buzz in the car care industry because of its promise. Shine, scratch protection, amazing savings and most of all - never apply car wax again! Amazing right? Currently, there are three type of car coating products. Polymer coating, Fluorine coating and Glass coating. Among them, glass coating is the new kid in a block in the US market but already very popular in Europa and Japan.This is because of the technology that it uses. Liquid glass and other compounds enables this product to give your car a liquid glass effect which will protect itagainst weather, natural situations like bird droppings, scratches, dust, spills and all those things that just no ordinary wax can fix. Most of all, it can last from 4 to 6 months! It’s that durable.
What to Consider When Choosing Between the Two
Basically choosing between the two is not too difficult if you know what you want. If you are the type of person who would rather stick to your usual routine then you can easily do so and choose the traditional car wax to get your desired car polish. Now, if you have a new car and prefer quick and easy way, seek durability, glass like shine and more protection for paints then definitely want to try liquid glass products to test. See the difference of having a car that seems to be coated with a special shield that helps it maintain its glossy car polish and as well as giving it the best protection that your valuable car deserves.
As time passes by, we get to learn new products out from our old favorite but only better and way beneficial. Choosing the later gives you more flexibility and benefits. Though, the traditional car wax would always remain a favorite too. Thinking of buying a car glass coatimng? Make sure to check reviews first so we would know that what we would get is the best of the best. After all, cars need pampering too.

Why choose TACSYSTEM ?
1/ About Quart Coating,TACSYSTEM is Korea pioneer in Car paint coating especially the Silica Coating Formula. For the past 23 years,the main objective of TACSYSTEM is“Manufacturing with the highest level of R&D technology in car detailing industry”.What makes TACSYSTEM Quartz Coating different is the superb nanotechnology.With the world first-class production technology , the formula has taken 23 years of research and testing to bring the product to where it is today.As is well known,for quartz coating, we can produce from 1% to 100% SiO2 .
2/ About polishing compound,both 1st and 2nd generation polishing compounds were oil-based. However,when most of the manufacturers were still producing 2nd generation compounds, TACSYSTEM has begun to evolve the development of the 3rd generation compound, water-based; The Refinish Series, R1 R2 and R3. These compounds are in the shape of a tetrahedron, from two dimensions will appear a shape of a triangle.With the cutting edge technology ,this innovative design creates a much stronger cutting force then the past generations of the polishing compound. The cutting force of the Refinish series decreases when water dries out during the polishing progress. Refinish series consists of resins, which will wrap around the particles when the water dries out, thus there will not be any marring caused to the surface.
In 2015, TACSYSTEM has instigated an upgrade to our Refinish Series, we have formed yet another revolution to the polishing compound, Refinish Ultra, patented in Korea. It is developed in the shape of a half-moon, which is only 2.2µm in size, and it has a unique aggressive cutting force, yet it allows extreme high gloss in the finishing step. With such size of particles, it can prevent swirl marks creating during the polishing stages and at the same time increases the shininess of the surface.
In 2016,Total One Essential is TACSYSTEM formulated polishing and glazing compound specifically for water based paintwork ,which is only 0.6µm~1µm in size, with our advanced cutting edge technology based on Quartz compounds .What’s more, it has a unique aggressive cutting force, yet it allows extreme high gloss in the finishing step.It can produce an extreme gloss finish and remove fine swirl marks and holograms.
3/ We have the world's most powerful water repellent series,which includes Moonlight,Quartz Max,Water Glass and Hydrophobic Top Coat 1.0 .At the same time, we have excellent iron removal formula,which includes Iron Zero, Iron.Zero-Paste and Iron.Zero-Foam .
