Bring your paint back to life. We permanently remove swirl marks, scratches, oxidation, and holograms with precision machine polishing, revealing the deep, wet-looking gloss hiding under years of wear.
Paint correction is a precise, multi-step machine polishing process that permanently removes defects from your clear coat, rather than just hiding them. By carefully leveling microscopic imperfections, we restore the depth, gloss, and reflection your paint had when it left the factory, often better.
Unlike a quick polish that fills and masks, true correction physically removes swirls and scratches for permanent results.
With defects gone, light reflects cleanly off your paint, creating a stunning mirror-like depth and shine.
We use professional dual-action and rotary polishers with the right pads and compounds for your specific paint.
If your paint looks dull, hazy, or scratched up in the sunlight, these are the culprits, and we fix them.
Spider-web scratches from improper washing and automatic car washes.
Surface scratches in the clear coat that catch and scatter light.
Dull, chalky paint caused by years of sun and UV exposure.
Etched mineral deposits left behind by hard water and rain.
Marring left by poor prior machine work at other shops.
Bug etching, sap, and fallout that dull and rough up the surface.
Many shops "polish" by masking defects that come right back. Here's what sets true paint correction apart.
Every vehicle is different. We inspect your paint and recommend the right level. Final pricing is confirmed at consultation.
A single-step polish that boosts gloss and removes lighter defects.
Our most popular level, compound plus polish for serious clarity.
Maximum correction for heavily defected or neglected paint.
A $100 non-refundable deposit secures all bookings and is applied toward your total. Note: 100% defect removal isn't always safe, paint can only be polished so much before reaching its limit. We always correct responsibly to protect your clear coat.
Methodical, measured, and tailored to your paint, never rushed.
A thorough wash, iron removal, and clay treatment strip contaminants so we polish clean paint.
Under dedicated lighting we assess defect depth and do test spots to dial in the safest, most effective process.
We compound and refine panel by panel, removing defects and bringing up the gloss in measured stages.
A final polish perfects the finish, then we recommend sealing it in with a ceramic coating to keep it flawless.
A ceramic coating locks in whatever is under it, for years. If you coat over swirls and scratches, you seal in the flaws. That's why we always correct the paint first, so your coating protects a flawless, glossy finish. Most of our coating clients pair the two.
Real paint, brought back to a deep, defect-free, mirror finish.
