Whether you’re maintaining your daily driver, restoring a luxury vehicle, or preparing for protective coatings, our paint correction services are tailored to meet your goals. Here’s how to choose the right option for your car:

Full Paint Correction (2-3 Stage)

Why Choose It?
This multi-stage process is the gold standard for paint restoration, tackling even the most challenging imperfections like heavy swirls, scratches, holograms, and oxidation. Using advanced tools and techniques, we meticulously refine your car’s surface, leaving behind a deep, mirror-like finish.

Polishing

Why Choose It?
Polishing focuses on enhancing your car’s gloss and depth while addressing minor imperfections like light swirls, water spots, and mild oxidation. While it doesn’t involve the deeper restoration of full paint correction, it delivers a noticeable improvement in your car’s appearance.

Best For:

  • Luxury and Supercars: A flawless paint finish is essential for these high-end vehicles, especially before applying Ceramic Coatings or Paint Protection Film (PPF). Paint correction ensures the surface is immaculate, allowing these protective layers to bond perfectly and highlight the vehicle’s natural beauty.

  • Show Cars: Whether it’s for car shows, the Woodward Dream Cruise, or private collections, a pristine finish with unmatched depth and gloss is crucial for making a statement. Full paint correction removes any imperfections, ensuring your car looks as stunning under spotlights as it does in natural light.

  • Older or Neglected Cars: Over time, exposure to the elements can leave paint looking dull, scratched, or oxidized. Paint correction revives the original vibrancy of your car’s finish, making it feel new again while extending the life of the paintwork.

  • Collectors and Enthusiasts: If you’re restoring a classic car or preserving a limited-edition vehicle, full paint correction ensures the highest standard of care, bringing out the original charm and value.

  • Pre-Sale Preparation: For owners looking to maximize resale value, paint correction enhances your car’s appearance, helping it stand out and command a higher price.

Additional Benefits:

  • Increased Value: Whether for resale or personal satisfaction, a flawless exterior significantly boosts your car’s appeal and worth.

  • Enhanced Protection Readiness: Perfectly corrected paint ensures that Ceramic Coatings or PPF adhere seamlessly, providing maximum protection and shine.

  • Tailored Approach: Each stage of the correction is customized to your car’s specific paint type, condition, and imperfections for a truly bespoke result.

  • Long-Lasting Results: With proper maintenance, a full paint correction can keep your car looking new for years, preserving the integrity of the paint.

For anyone who demands perfection—whether on a daily driver, a show car, or a supercar—full paint correction is the ultimate investment in your vehicle's appearance and longevity. Contact us today to schedule your paint correction!
