What it does

A clearer, more refined finish.

Car paint correction refines the clear coat to improve how the paintwork looks. It’s a professional paint correction service for paint that has lost its gloss or picked up marks over time.

Results depend on the paint and the type of imperfection. Some deeper damage can’t be removed by polishing alone, so we assess every vehicle first.

  • Gloss and clarity

    Refining the paint surface helps bring back depth, gloss and clarity to the finish.

  • Fewer visible imperfections

    Reduces the appearance of suitable imperfections, such as swirl marks, light scratches and haze.

  • A refined finish

    Careful machine polishing leaves the paintwork smoother and more refined.

  • A more uniform appearance

    A cleaner, more even look across the panels of your vehicle.

Paint correction and ceramic coating

Preparing paint for ceramic coating.

A ceramic coating protects the finish beneath it, so the condition of the paint matters. Correcting the paintwork first can create a cleaner, more refined surface for the coating to protect.

Not every vehicle needs it. Where your paint does, any preparation or correction required is reflected in your quote.

The process

How paint correction works.

Carried out at your location, with the approach matched to your vehicle’s paint.

  1. Assess the paintwork

    We look at the condition of the paint to understand what can realistically be improved.

  2. Prepare the vehicle

    The vehicle is cleaned and prepared so the paintwork can be worked on properly.

  3. Correct and refine

    The paint is machine polished to refine the finish, as appropriate for its condition.

  4. Inspect the finish

    We check the result. If you’ve chosen ceramic coating, the paintwork is then ready for the next stage.

Before your appointment

Paint correction needs access to water and power, and a suitable garage, carport or other undercover space. If you don’t have one, we can provide a gazebo at no extra cost.

Pricing

What paint correction costs.

Paint correction is quoted for each vehicle, because the cost depends on the vehicle, the condition of its paint and the scope of work. If you’re considering ceramic coating as well, let us know in your enquiry and we can quote for both.
