Paint Correction

This process focuses on removing imperfections from a vehicle's clear coat. 

By leveling the clear coat with polish or compound, the appearance of blemishes can be reduced or removed.

Common symptoms of damaged paint include swirls, abrasions, holograms, and impact scratches. 

Paint correction focuses on clear coat rather than the actual layer of paint. When damage goes beyond the clear and physically removes paint, it typically requires a different process. i.e paintless dent removal, rock chip repair, qualified body shop.


Common imperfections

The most common thing we see are swirls or web like formations that may become more dense and visible over time.


The main cause of these is from automatic car washes that use rolling bristles. They remove dirt from hundreds of cars and slap those dirty abrasive bristles all over your sensitive paint. If you use an auto wash, use the touchless option.

If you maintain your vehicle at home, improper washing technique can also be a culprit. 


Gravel, dust, and off-roading can cause long hairline scratches or swirls from the road or how it is washed afterwards..


Brand new vehicles don't always come with flawless paint. There are a lot of steps to get a car from the factory to the showroom floor. Most dealerships will send your car through a bristle bomb before delivery. A simple polish or even a correction can start you off on the right foot to protect your fresh ride.



pricing

Since each correction requires a customized approach, the pricing will vary based on your needs. Feel free to reach out with any questions. We are more than happy to do an in person estimate to get the ball rolling.
