FAQ's
What is car paint correction?
Car paint correction is a professional detailing process that permanently removes imperfections from your vehicle’s paintwork, such as swirl marks, scratches, oxidation, water spots, and other surface defects. It involves using machine polishers, abrasive compounds, and specialized pads to carefully level and refine the paint, revealing a deep, glossy, and flawless finish
How is the paint correction process performed?
The process typically involves:
- Thorough washing and decontamination (using pH-neutral shampoo, clay bar, etc.)
- Inspection of the paint using tools like a paint thickness gauge and specialized lighting
- Multi-stage machine polishing, which may include cutting (for heavy defects), refining, and final polishing (jewelling) to achieve maximum gloss and clarity
- Application of a protective sealant or coating to preserve the corrected finish
How long does paint correction take?
The time required depends on the vehicle’s size and the severity of paint defects:
- Minor corrections: 1–2 days
- More extensive corrections: Up to 5–7 days (or 3–40 hours of labor), especially for vehicles with significant damage or larger surface areas
How much does paint correction cost?
Pricing varies based on the extent of damage, vehicle size, and the number of correction stages:
- Minor paint correction typically starts at around $500
- More extensive work is charged hourly and can increase with the time and effort required
Does paint correction remove a lot of paint? Is it safe?
If performed by trained professionals using the correct techniques and tools, paint correction removes only a minimal amount of the clear coat-usually just 5–10 microns, while most modern cars have 100–140 microns of paint. This process is safe and does not endanger your car’s paint if done properly. Poor technique or unqualified detailers can cause uneven or excessive removal, so expertise is crucial
