Understanding Anti-Hologram Technology in Polishing

Anti-hologram technology is a breakthrough for anyone looking to achieve a truly flawless finish on resin and other polished surfaces. This guide explains what anti-hologram technology is, how it works, and how to make the most of it in your resin repair projects.

What Is Anti-Hologram Technology?

Traditional polishing can sometimes leave behind faint, spiral-shaped marks called holograms or swirl marks, especially noticeable under strong light. Anti-hologram technology is formulated specifically to eliminate these marks during the polishing process, creating a perfectly smooth appearance. Products such as the Epoxy Polish – Epoxy Resin Polishing System use advanced abrasives to prevent swirl formation, delivering a clear, mirror-like finish on resin, carbon fibre, and plastics.

How to Use Anti-Hologram Polishes Effectively

To make the most of anti-hologram products, start by sanding the surface with progressively finer grit pads to remove scratches and surface imperfections. Using pads like the Ebonite Abralon Sanding Pads, work up to a fine grade. Next, apply the anti-hologram polish with a rotary polisher or a hand pad holder, following the manufacturer’s instructions for best results. Finish with a microfibre cloth for high-gloss clarity. Unlike many generic compounds, dedicated anti-hologram polishes do not leave behind white residue or swirl marks.
