Machine Polishing and Paint Correction
Paint correction is the process of safely removing defects from your vehicle’s clear coat using specialist polishing machines and cutting compounds. This includes swirl marks, water spots, oxidation, holograms and light scratches. The result is a significantly clearer, sharper and more reflective finish.
We use machine polishing for paint correction, using industry-grade polishers, paint depth inspection tools and multi-stage correction techniques. Every car receives a tailored approach depending on paint hardness, defect level and desired finish.
Paint correction is essential if you want the highest possible shine, or if you’re preparing your vehicle for a ceramic coating.
Why do I need paint correction?
Your car may suffer from dull paint, swirl marks, hazing and micro-scratches caused by automatic car washes, improper washing methods or years of exposure to the elements. These defects can’t be removed by waxing or washing alone.
Driver visibility, paint vibrancy and resale value all decline as imperfections build up, leaving the car looking old and faded, even if it’s regularly cleaned.
Recommended: Pair your correction with a ceramic coating or maintenance package to protect the restored finish.
