What is Paint Correction?

Paint correction is the process of removing surface imperfections from your vehicle's clear coat using professional-grade machines and compounds. Unlike a basic polish, true paint correction addresses swirl marks, scratches, water spots, oxidation, and other defects that diminish your paint's clarity and depth.

The goal is to restore your vehicle's paint to as close to factory condition as possible—creating a flawless, mirror-like finish that reflects light properly and showcases the true color of your car.

Imperfections We Remove

Swirl Marks

Fine circular scratches caused by improper washing techniques or automatic car washes

Water Spots

Mineral deposits etched into clear coat from hard water or acid rain

Oxidation

UV damage that causes paint to look faded, dull, or chalky

Holograms

Circular patterns left by improper machine polishing

Etching

Damage from bird droppings, tree sap, or bug splatter left too long

Buffer Trails

Visible marks from amateur or rushed polishing jobs

Our Paint Correction Process

1

Paint Depth Reading

We measure your clear coat thickness to ensure safe correction without risk of burning through the paint. This tells us exactly how much material we can safely remove.

2

Thorough Decontamination

Deep clean and clay bar treatment to remove all bonded contaminants. This creates a perfectly clean surface for correction work.

3

Compounding Stage

Heavy-cut compound removes deeper imperfections and levels the clear coat. This is where the majority of defects are eliminated.

4

Polishing Stage

Finer polish refines the finish, removes any marring from compounding, and brings out maximum gloss and depth.

5

Final Finishing

Ultra-fine finishing polish creates the mirror-like reflection and hologram-free finish. Paint is now optically perfect.

6

Protection Application

We recommend ceramic coating or paint sealant to protect your newly corrected paint and maintain results longer.
