Exterior · Service 06

Cosmetic refresh between deep services.

A light cosmetic pass applied as a finishing dressing — sealant, gloss enhancer, and hand polish to refresh the look between full exterior detailings. Non-repair: no abrasion, no clearcoat work, no fixing of paint defects. Just a cleaner, brighter exterior for between-trip presentation.

Process

3 stages, executed on the airframe.

No two airframes start in the same condition. Every step below is dialed to the surface we're actually working on, not to a service-menu recipe.

  1. 01

    Walk-around and clean

    Start from a freshly washed surface. Enhancement goes on clean paint, not over soil.

  2. 02

    Light dressing

    Gloss-enhancing sealant applied by hand, panel by panel. No abrasive content, no cutting compound, no paint correction.

  3. 03

    Hand finish

    Microfiber refinement, low pressure. Reveals depth without removing material.

Materials

Aviation-grade products, no shortcuts.

Brand and grade are the work. The wrong product on the wrong surface is the most expensive shortcut in this business.

Gloss-enhancing sealant — non-abrasive content.
Towels
Low-pile suede microfiber.
Application
Hand-rubbed only, no machine work.

Time on aircraft

1 day
