Paint Correction FAQs

How is paint correction different from auto detailing?

Paint correction focuses on machine polishing and compounding to reduce visible paint defects and improve gloss. For interior cleaning, a maintenance wash or an exterior wax service, visit our auto detailing page.

Which paint correction package should I choose?

Gloss Rejuvenation offers a single-stage gloss enhancement. Two-Stage Correction addresses deeper defects through compounding and polishing. Signature Multi-Step Correction uses a tailored 2–6 stage process. We recommend a package after discussing your goals and examining your paint.

Can every scratch be removed?

No. Deep scratches, thin paint and previous repairs may limit what can safely be corrected. The listed percentages are package targets, not guarantees. We explain the likely improvement before you commit.

What protection is included afterward?

Gloss Rejuvenation and Signature Multi-Step include hand-applied paste wax; the Two-Stage package includes a 6-month paint sealant. Optional ceramic coatings offer another protection choice, and are highly recommended with Signature Multi-Step. Durability depends on vehicle use and maintenance.

Is wet sanding included in the starting price?

No. Wet sanding or texture removal is an additional charge when appropriate and requested. We assess the finish and discuss any extra work before proceeding.

How do I get an accurate price?

Use the quote form or call (757) 676-2571. Share your year, make, model and paint concerns. Your vehicle’s condition and the required work determine the final price. We aim to respond within 24 hours.
