Paint Correction: Restoring Your Vehicle’s Perfect Finish

Paint correction is a professional detailing process that removes scratches, swirl marks, and oxidation, restoring clarity and shine to a vehicle’s paintwork. By leveling the clear coat, detailers can achieve a mirror-like finish that enhances the car’s overall appearance.

Key Steps in Paint Correction

Compounding – Uses a cutting compound to eliminate deep scratches and defects.

Polishing – Refines the paint surface, removing minor imperfections.

Waxing/Sealant Application – Adds a protective layer, enhancing gloss and shielding against contaminants.

Paint Correction vs. Paint Enhancement

  • Paint Correction – A multi-step process aimed at removing imperfections for a flawless finish.

  • Paint Enhancement – A lighter approach, focusing on refining the paint without eliminating deeper defects.
