Paint Correction

Before beginning any paint correction work, it's important to thoroughly clean the vehicle to remove any dirt, debris, and contaminants that may have accumulated on the surface. This typically involves a thorough wash, followed by a decontamination process that removes embedded contaminants like tar, tree sap, and industrial fallout.

The actual paint correction process typically involves a series of steps, including compounding, polishing, and refining. These steps use abrasive compounds and polishing agents to remove imperfections from the surface of the paint, leaving a smooth, glossy finish.

Once the finishing steps are complete, the surface is inspected again to ensure that all imperfections have been removed and the finish is smooth and even.

Once the surface is clean, the next step is to inspect the paint for imperfections like scratches, swirl marks, and oxidation. This allows the detailer to assess the extent of the damage and determine the appropriate correction methods.

After the correction process is complete, the surface may be finished with a protective coating, such as a wax, sealant, or ceramic coating, to help maintain the restored finish and protect against future damage.

Finally, the vehicle is given a thorough detailing to ensure that all surfaces are clean and free of debris, and all interior and exterior components are restored to their original condition. This may include cleaning and conditioning leather seats, restoring headlights, and polishing chrome trim.
