Paint Correction
Two Stage Paint Correction
The highest level of machine polishing correction for heavily swirled, marred, or neglected paintwork. Remove 85 to 95% of defects permanently, leaving the paint restored to better-than-showroom condition.
The most comprehensive paint correction available.
When a vehicle has been poorly maintained, washed incorrectly for years, or has buffer trails from a previous bad detailer, a two stage paint correction is the solution. This intensive process is methodical, time-consuming, and requires experience and specialist equipment, but the results are transformative.
Stage one uses a heavy-cut abrasive compound to aggressively level the clear coat, removing the vast majority of deep swirls, scratches, and defects. Stage two uses a fine finishing polish to refine the surface left by stage one, eliminating any micro-marring from the cutting stage and maximising gloss, clarity, and depth.
Add a ceramic coating for £200 per vehicle. A two stage correction paired with a ceramic coating is our most recommended combination, it locks in the corrected finish for years. Learn more about ceramic coating.
