Frequently Asked Questions
What is Restored Shine?
Restored Shine is a powerful 2-step system designed to restore the appearance of faded, dull, and oxidized automotive paint.
It is made for vehicle owners who want to bring back the shine and improve the overall appearance of their vehicle without needing expensive professional equipment or a polishing machine.
Whether your vehicle has oxidation, faded paint, scratches, swirl marks, or water spots, Restored Shine is designed to help bring back that deep, like-new shine.
Does Restored Shine actually remove oxidation?
Yes. That's exactly what Restored Shine was designed to do.
Restored Shine is specifically formulated to restore oxidized and faded automotive paint and bring back the shine that your vehicle has lost over time.
The goal isn't to simply cover up the problem. Restored Shine works to repair and restore the appearance of the paint so your vehicle can look dramatically better.
Do I need a buffer or polishing machine?
No.
One of the great things about Restored Shine is that you don't need an expensive buffer or professional polishing machine to use it.
The system is designed to be applied by hand, making it simple enough for everyday vehicle owners to restore the appearance of their own car, truck, or SUV.
Can I use Restored Shine on clear coat?
Yes, absolutely.
Restored Shine can be used on automotive clear-coated paint surfaces and is designed to improve the appearance and shine of your vehicle's paint.
Whether your paint has become faded, oxidized, dull, or simply lost its original shine, Restored Shine can help bring the surface back to a beautiful, like-new appearance.
Can I use Restored Shine on a newer vehicle?
Yes!
Restored Shine isn't just for old cars.
If your newer vehicle has scratches, swirl marks, water spots, fading, or a dull finish, Restored Shine can help improve the appearance of the paint and bring back a cleaner, deeper, like-new shine.
It's a great way to refresh the appearance of your vehicle and make it look newer again.
Will Restored Shine work on every vehicle?
Restored Shine can work on most vehicles and a wide variety of automotive paint conditions.
Every vehicle is different, and results can vary depending on the condition of the paint, the severity of the oxidation, and other factors.
However, Restored Shine is designed to make a noticeable improvement in the appearance of your vehicle. Even when the paint has more significant imperfections, Restored Shine can help make it look dramatically better.
For the best possible results, properly preparing the surface and following the recommended application process is important.
What if my paint is peeling?
Restored Shine can still significantly improve the appearance of paint that has begun to peel or deteriorate.
However, when paint is actively peeling, the surface itself is already damaged, so the results may not be perfectly uniform.
For the best results on areas where paint is peeling, we recommend sanding and properly preparing those areas before using Restored Shine. This can help create a smoother surface and allow you to achieve a better overall finish.
Even on vehicles with more challenging paint conditions, Restored Shine can make a major improvement in the overall appearance.
Is Restored Shine a permanent solution?
Yes. Restored Shine is designed to repair and restore the paint rather than simply provide a temporary shine or mask the problem.
The system works to restore the appearance of the affected paint, giving your vehicle a renewed finish and helping bring back the shine it once had.
As with any vehicle paint restoration, maintaining your vehicle properly after treatment is important for keeping it looking its best.
How long does the restoration process take?
For most vehicles, the process takes approximately 20 minutes, depending on the size and condition of the vehicle.
Of course, the exact amount of time will depend on the size of your vehicle, how much of the vehicle you are treating, and how quickly you work.
The best part is that you don't need to spend hours working on your vehicle to see a dramatic improvement.
How much product do I need?
We make it simple to choose the right amount:
- 1 Kit: Recommended for one standard-sized car
- 2 Kit Package: Recommended for an SUV or truck
- 3 Kit Package: Recommended if you have multiple vehicles you want to restore
If you have multiple vehicles, choosing the 3-kit package is the easiest way to have enough product available to restore more than one vehicle.
Can Restored Shine help with scratches and swirl marks?
Yes.
Restored Shine can help improve the appearance of scratches, swirl marks, and other imperfections in your vehicle's paint.
Depending on the depth and severity of a scratch, results may vary. However, Restored Shine is designed to improve the overall appearance of your vehicle and help restore a smoother, cleaner, more vibrant finish.
Can Restored Shine help with water spots?
Yes.
Water spots can make your vehicle's paint look dull and neglected. Restored Shine can help improve the appearance of water spots and restore the overall shine of the paint.
The result is a cleaner, brighter, more refreshed appearance that can make your vehicle look dramatically newer.
Will Restored Shine make my car look new again?
That's the goal!
Restored Shine is designed to restore the appearance of faded, oxidized, dull, and tired-looking paint.
Whether you're dealing with oxidation, fading, scratches, swirl marks, or water spots, Restored Shine can help bring back the shine and improve the overall appearance of your vehicle.
Results will vary depending on the condition of the paint, but many vehicles can experience a dramatic transformation.
Do I need to prepare my vehicle before using Restored Shine?
For the best results, we recommend starting with a clean surface.
Wash your vehicle thoroughly and remove dirt, dust, and other contaminants before beginning the restoration process.
Proper preparation allows you to get the most out of the Restored Shine system and achieve the best possible finish.
Do I need to test Restored Shine first?
We recommend testing Restored Shine on a small, inconspicuous area before treating the entire vehicle.
This allows you to see how the system performs on your specific paint surface and gives you an idea of the results you can expect before completing the full application.
Can I use Restored Shine on different paint colors?
Yes.
Restored Shine is designed to improve the appearance of automotive paint across a variety of vehicle colors.
Whether your vehicle is black, white, red, blue, silver, or another color, Restored Shine can help restore the shine and improve the overall appearance of the paint.
Can I use Restored Shine on plastic, trim, or glass?
Restored Shine is intended primarily for automotive painted surfaces and clear-coated paint.
For surfaces such as glass, unpainted plastic, rubber, or trim, we recommend following the specific product instructions and avoiding use unless the product instructions specifically indicate that the surface is suitable.
How long will the results last?
Restored Shine is designed as a permanent restoration solution rather than a temporary shine that simply washes away.
However, the overall appearance and condition of any vehicle's paint will continue to be affected by factors such as sunlight, weather, environmental exposure, washing, and general vehicle maintenance.
Properly caring for your vehicle after restoration can help keep your paint looking its best for as long as possible.
