What’s involved?

Paint Correction is a meticulous, multi-stage process designed to rejuvenate your vehicle’s paintwork. Whether reviving old paint or enhancing new, this procedure effectively removes scratches, haze, and old paint protection from the clear coat, restoring a flawless finish.

  1. Pre-Soak & Two-Bucket Hand Wash

    1. We begin with a thorough pre-soak and meticulous two-bucket hand wash to eliminate surface dirt and grime.

  2. Clay Bar & Iron Decontamination

    1. Next, we soak the paint with iron and fallout remover and rinse clean, followed by synthetic clay bar treatment if necessary. This removes stubborn fallout and embedded contaminants, prepping the surface for polishing.

  3. Machine Polish

    1. Next, we machine polish the clear coat to remove oxidation, swirl marks, hazing, and most surface-level scratches, restoring your vehicle’s original shine.

  4. Ceramic Sealant/Coating Application

    1. Paint is topped with Ceramic Spray Sealant that provides 6+ months of superior protection, leaving your paint glossy and safeguarded from the elements. Upgrade to a Ceramic Coating for 3+ years of paint protection.
