Noticed swirl marks, dull patches, or hazing in your car’s paintwork? Paint correction might be exactly what you need.
What is Paint Correction?Paint correction is a professional machine-polishing process that removes imperfections from your car’s clear coat, such as swirl marks, fine scratches, oxidation, and holograms. It’s not a wax or filler — it physically levels the paint surface for a permanent result.
The Benefits:
Deep gloss and a like-new finish
Restores colour clarity and depth
Prepares the surface for ceramic coating protection
Increases your car’s value and curb appeal
Common Signs You Need It:
Spiderweb-like swirl marks in direct sunlight
Paint looks tired, even after washing
Poor reflections and inconsistent gloss
Car has been through automatic car washes or poor valets
