Whats A Paint Correction?

Many people are not very familiar with the term 'Paint Correction' or have incorrect knowledge of what it is. Simply put, Paint correction is polishing your vehicles paint to remove scratches, swirls, and etchings. This is done by using a variety of different compounds and polishes matched with the proper pads all on a machine buffer. Depending on what level of correction you want, the final result can bring you paint that looks even better than brand new with no defects at all.

How It Works

The reason you see scratches at all it because they create a bunch of microscopic divots in your vehicle's clear coat, this causes light to refract differently which makes the scratches visable. The human eye is not able to see the microscratches themselves. If you look at your vehicle in dim lighting like a garage, your paint will appear to look perfect. But if you pull it out into the sun or turn on the lights, you'll all of a sudden see hundred of small scratches.


To fix this you need to correct your paint. There are many types of polishes, compounds, and pads used in paint correction. First we use a medium to heavy cut compound, combined with a cutting pad. This will shave down the clearcoat and remove all of the larger defects while leaving a bunch of really small ones. Next we use a polish on a soft polishing pad, this will remove the small scratches left ny the cutting compound and leave you with a perfectly smooth clear coat. Once the clear coat is perfectly smooth, the light will all refract the same way which gives you the look of perfect paint.

Why Get A Ceramic Coating?

Ease Of Maintenance


Since Ceramic Coatings are so hydrophobic, dust and dirt will also have a hard time sticking to your paint. This will make the washing process easier.

Chemical Protection


Contaminants like bug guts, tree sap, and bird poo are acidic. Without a ceramic coating, these can quickly etch your paint, leaving behind marks.
