The Benefits of Professional Paint Correction

Enhanced Gloss and Depth

Professional paint correction transforms your car from faded to flawless. By removing oxidation, water spots, and swirl marks, we reveal your paint’s true richness and clarity. Metallic flakes sparkle again, deep colors regain their vibrancy, and every curve of your car reflects like glass. It’s not just a cleaning; it’s a restoration of your vehicle’s original beauty.

A Smooth, Reflective Surface

When the paint is properly corrected, light reflects evenly across the surface, creating a sleek, mirror-like appearance. You’ll notice how effortlessly your car shines under the sun or even streetlights at night. That buttery-smooth texture isn’t just for looks; it’s the mark of a truly perfected finish that feels as impressive as it appears.

Prepares Your Paint for Coating or PPF

Paint correction is the foundation of any long-lasting protection. Before applying a ceramic coating or paint protection film (PPF), your surface needs to be flawless. Otherwise, imperfections remain trapped beneath the layer. Our correction process ensures the paint is completely smooth and contaminant-free, allowing coatings or films to bond perfectly and perform at their best for years.

Our Paint Correction Process

Full Vehicle Decontamination

Step 1

We begin with a complete decontamination of your vehicle’s exterior. Every surface is hand-washed, tar and iron particles are removed, and a clay bar is used to eliminate bonded contaminants that normal washing can’t reach. This ensures the paint is clean, smooth, and ready for a safe correction process without causing new scratches.

Multi-Stage Polishing

Step 2

Once the surface is clean, we move to polishing, the heart of paint correction. Depending on your paint’s condition, we use a one-step, two-step, or full multi-stage correction to remove swirl marks, scratches, and dullness. Our technicians carefully test different pad and polish combinations to find what brings the best clarity and gloss without compromising paint integrity. Each section is worked methodically to achieve a consistent, stunning finish.

Final Wipe Down and Inspection

Step 3

After polishing, we perform an isopropyl alcohol (IPA) wipe down to remove any remaining polishing oils. This reveals the true condition of your paint. We then inspect the vehicle under multiple light sources to ensure every imperfection has been addressed. The process ends with optional protection like ceramic coating or PPF to preserve that flawless finish for years.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a paint correction take?

The time depends on your vehicle’s size and the level of correction needed. A light one-step polish may take 4–6 hours, while a full multi-stage correction can take 1–2 days. We’ll inspect your vehicle first and provide an accurate estimate before starting any work.

Will paint correction remove all scratches?

Paint correction removes most surface-level defects such as swirl marks, haze, and light scratches. However, deep scratches that have penetrated the clear coat may require touch-up paint or other specialized repairs. We’ll let you know what results to expect during your consultation.

How long will the results last?

With proper maintenance and care, your paint correction can last for years. Regular hand washing, using microfiber towels, and avoiding automatic car washes will help preserve the finish. For even longer protection, we recommend adding a ceramic coating or paint protection film after correction.
