OUR PAINT CORRECTION PROCESS

Our paint correction process is segmented into several phases, which vary depending on the severity of the damage.

Stage 1

This is the preparation phase before we start any machine polishing. We do a full two-stage wash which consists of an iron removal bath & clay bar treatment to ensure we have a clean working surface.

Stage 2

We begin our machine polishing phase which may consist of a heavy compound stage first or just our polishing phase. The level of correction is based on the condition of the paint as well as the initial consultation. The machine polishing phase will remove scratches, swirls & oxidation, revealing a fresh finish!

Stage 3

After the careful paint correction process, we prep the surface to remove any polishing oils and seal up the paint with a 9 month sealant. This will add protection and a long-lasting shine!
