Paint Correction & Polishing

Paint correction is machine polishing that takes out the fine scratches and swirl marks making your paint look dull and cloudy. Years of them, polished away in your driveway. Every package is complete: Exterior Detail, the polishing, and protection, in one visit.

The process

Correction only works on spotlessly clean, decontaminated paint, so every tier is a full package rather than an add-on. Each one includes the complete exterior wash and prep before a single pad touches your vehicle.

Included in every correction package

  • Professional hand wash + foam bath, or a rinseless wash
  • Bug splatters and road grime removed
  • Wheels + rims deep cleaned
  • Deep clean that pulls out ground-in grit (Decontamination)
  • Close inspection of every panel
  • Right polish + pads for your vehicle
  • pH-neutral prep spray before protection
  • Premium tire dressing applied
  • Plastic trim cleaned + UV protected
  • 3-month sealant — a clear protective layer sealing in the new shine

The Interior Detail is separate, and you can add it when you book.

The results

More stages mean more of your paint’s history erased. Here’s what each package cuts through.

1-Step

50–60%of the swirls and light scratches gone

One pass with the polisher. Takes out about half the light swirls and brings back the shine, without chasing every last scratch. The right pick for a vehicle you drive every day.

  • One polishing pass to lift the shine

2-Step

70–80%of the swirls and scratches gone

Two passes. The first cuts deeper to lift out heavier scratches, the second brings the gloss back up. For paint that has had a hard life and needs more than one pass can reach.

  • A deeper pass that lifts out heavier scratches
  • A finishing polish that brings the gloss back up

What correction cannot do: anything that has gone through the paint. Deep scratches you can catch a fingernail in, rock chips down to primer or metal, and cracked or peeling clear coat are body-shop work, not detailing, and I’ll tell you so at the walkaround, panel by panel, before you spend a dollar.

After the correction

The protection

Correction perfects the finish. A coating keeps it that way.

Why the coating goes on next

  • Freshly polished paint is the cleanest surface a coating will ever bond to
  • Washes get faster and gentler, so the scratches take far longer to come back
  • A coating lasts years; the 3-month sealant in these packages does not
  • One visit instead of two — a 1-step correction is already inside every coating package

Need more correction than the 1-step that is included? We add it at the walkaround, and you see the number before anything starts.
