“Paint correction” is a detailing industry term referring to the different processes employed by car care specialists to rejuvenate and restore the brand new finish of your paint without the need to repaint your car. Paint correction allows for car owners to click a restart button on their paint without the significant cost associated with body shops.

This service involves the use of a combination of dedicated liquid polishes, dual-action polishers, and advanced buffing pads to remove imperfections from the clear-coat. These include scratches, swirl marks, oxidation, etching, stains, and haze. Removing these defects reveals a deep, clear gloss that can often be better than showroom shine.

It’s important to distinguish between paint correction and other services such as glazing or waxing as those only masks the imperfections for a short period of time before they reappear. To permanently eliminate scratches and other defects, the correction process will remove a microscopic layer of clear-coat. When done by trained and experienced detailers, this process is completely safe, in fact, every car manufacturer employs the same process at the end of their assembly line to reveal a showroom shine.
