Paint Correction

Restore your paint. Refine the finish.

Machine polishing can reduce visible swirls and surface defects. The result depends on paint condition and available clear coat.

01What It Fixes

See what polishing can improve.

Paint condition varies, so we assess the surface before recommending a one-step or two-step correction.

Swirl Marks

Fine circular scratches from automatic washes and bad towels.

Light Scratches

Surface-level marring that hasn't broken through clear coat.

Oxidation

UV-dulled, chalky paint that's lost its depth and color.

Water Spots

Mineral etching baked into the surface by hard water.

02The Result

A finish that reads like glass.

Compare a real client panel before and after polishing. Results vary with paint condition and the level of correction chosen.

Ask about ceramic coating after correction if you want a separate protective layer over the polished finish.
