Assessment first
Paint thickness, defect type, and previous work decide whether correction is appropriate. Not every mark can or should be removed.
Paint correction
Restore clarity. Reduce what the paint will safely give.
Paint correction is measured machine polishing. It is for swirl marks, wash marring, haze, light scratches, oxidation, water spotting, and micro-marring in the clear coat — the defects that flatten a finish and show under hard light.
What the process looks like
The vehicle is inspected, washed, and decontaminated so the true surface can be read. Machine work then proceeds panel by panel. How far correction goes depends on the paint, not a promised percentage. Neglected paint is quoted individually.
Preservation comes first. Clear coat is finite. This is finish work for owners and for professionals preparing cars for photographs or handover — not a same-day valet add-on.

Controlled machine work
Compounds and pads are chosen for the panel in front of us, not a fixed recipe. The aim is an even, clearer finish without holograms.
Honest limits
Deep scratches, stone chips, and failing clear coat sit outside correction. Those limits are explained before work starts. 100% removal is never promised.
