Paint Correction

First, we evaluate your paint's condition, noting imperfections like scratches and swirl marks. We also measure paint thickness to guide our approach and protect sensitive areas with tape.

Next, we use a machine polisher and a cutting compound to address heavy defects, like deep scratches and oxidation. This step levels the paint's surface.

We follow up with a less aggressive polish and machine to refine the paint further, removing moderate defects, swirl marks, and enhancing gloss.

Lastly, we apply a finishing polish for a high gloss finish. Consider a protective product like ceramic coating or paint sealant for long-term protection against environmental elements and to maintain the improved appearance.

Why Paint Correction Is Important?

Paint correction is a critical step in the automotive detailing process, and it becomes even more important if you're planning on getting your vehicle wrapped or coated with ceramic. Here's why paint correction is essential, especially in these scenarios:


  1. Surface Preparation:
  • Paint correction ensures that your vehicle's paint is in the best possible condition before applying a wrap or ceramic coating.
  • It removes imperfections like swirl marks, scratches, water spots, and oxidation, creating a smooth and flawless canvas for the wrap or coating.
  1. Optimal Adhesion:
  • Whether you're wrapping your vehicle or applying a ceramic coating, adhesion is crucial.
  • A corrected surface allows for better adhesion, ensuring that the wrap adheres evenly and securely, and the ceramic coating bonds effectively to the clear coat.
  1. Enhanced Aesthetics:
  • Paint correction enhances the appearance of your vehicle's paint, making it look its absolute best.
  • This improved aesthetic quality shines through the wrap, creating a more impressive finished look, or it complements the high-gloss finish of a ceramic coating.
  1. Longevity of Finish:
  • When you invest in a vehicle wrap or ceramic coating, you want it to last and maintain its appearance.
  • A corrected surface maximizes the lifespan of both wraps and ceramic coatings, ensuring that they stay looking great for years to come.
  1. Avoiding Imperfections Underneath:
  • Wraps and ceramic coatings are thin, protective layers, and any imperfections beneath them can become more apparent.
  • Paint correction prevents these imperfections from showing through, preserving the flawless appearance of your vehicle.
  1. Efficient Use of Products:
  • Paint correction minimizes the need for excessive product application during the wrapping or coating process.
  • This efficiency not only saves on material costs but also ensures a more consistent and durable result.
  1. Professional Appearance:
  • Whether it's for personal enjoyment or showcasing your business, a vehicle with a professionally corrected and enhanced finish conveys quality and attention to detail.


In summary, paint correction is a fundamental step to consider before getting your vehicle wrapped or coated with ceramic. It not only enhances the overall appearance but also ensures that these protective treatments adhere properly and provide long-lasting benefits. Investing in paint correction is an investment in the durability, aesthetics, and value of your vehicle.
