Our Expertise
Professional paint correction services
Paint correction isn’t a quick gloss; it’s a measured process that safely levels the micro-defects stealing depth from your paint. With carefully tested dual-action polishing, we remove swirls and revive a deep, liquid gloss without risking your clear coat.
Every vehicle gets a custom plan. We inspect under proper lighting, identify the paint system, and match the right pad, compound, and polish to achieve a crisp, reflective finish. On dark-colored vehicles—more prone to holograms and light marring—we use a gentler, multi-pass approach that delivers that mirror-like look you can spot across the parking lot.
The payoff? Clean reflections, true clarity, and a surface perfectly prepped for long-term protection.
Swirl mark & light scratch removal
Thinking about scratch removal without repainting? In many cases, absolutely. Swirl marks, light scratches, water spots, and wash-induced marring usually live in the upper clear coat. Our safe swirl removal process levels those defects with precision so the finish reads smooth and consistent again.
Not all scratches are equal. Deeper RIDS (random isolated deep scratches) may need targeted correction, spot sanding, or—if they cut past the clear—a body shop. We’ll be straightforward about what’s correctable, what isn’t, and why, so you can decide with confidence—no surprises.
Paint enhancement & gloss restoration
If your paint is “good” but not wow, our refined one-step is the sweet spot. It clears light haze and minor swirls while amplifying color and depth.
You’ll see a visible jump in gloss with minimal downtime. It’s the quickest way to refresh a daily, prep a new-to-you car, or prime a brand-new vehicle for long-term protection.
Our paint correction packages
Every finish tells a different story. That’s why we offer paint correction packages for all budgets—from quick refreshes to cut-and-polish options for more demanding paint. Each package includes inspection and defect measurement so expectations and results line up from the start.
Single-stage paint correction
Need a fast enhancement with minimal downtime? Our entry-level correction brightens the finish, reduces light swirls, and elevates gloss—perfect as a seasonal reset. You’ll roll out with cleaner reflections and a smoother surface, fast.
Two-stage & multi-stage correction
Neglected paint or heavier wash damage? Our multi-stage approach uses controlled cutting and refining to remove heavy defects while preserving integrity. We verify under multiple light sources for dramatic clarity and richer color.
Process: decontamination to flawless finish
Flawless correction starts with a spotless surface. We begin with a thorough wash and chemical decon: iron-fallout remover to dissolve embedded metals, then clay to lift bonded contaminants before polishing. Only then do we move into test spots and systematic correction.
Our machine polishing focuses on control—panel by panel, pad by pad. We balance cut and finish, wipe down with IPA to strip polishing oils, and re-inspect under varied lighting angles. The outcome isn’t “shiny for a day”; it’s a stable, corrected finish ready for protection.
Protection that preserves appearance & cuts upkeep
Protection isn’t just about shine—it’s about keeping surfaces stable against UV exposure and road film so the finish holds clarity longer.
Because contamination adheres less to a protected surface, washing is faster and gentler with fewer chances to induce new marks. If your use case calls for more longevity or impact defense, consider pairing your sealant with a ceramic coating or selective PPF on high-strike areas.
Aftercare you can follow
You’ll get a simple aftercare routine: pH-balanced wash products, soft mitts and towels, and proper drying methods. With these habits, the surface stays slick and easier to maintain.
