Two-Step Paint Correction

$550 starting price

The full correction. A compounding stage cuts the deeper defects out. A polishing stage then refines the paint and brings the clarity back, before a ceramic-infused sealant goes on top.

What's Included

What A Two-Step
Correction Includes

  • Exterior hand wash
  • Paint decontamination & clay bar treatment
  • Compounding stage (removes deeper defects)
  • Polishing stage (refines paint and restores clarity)
  • Removes approximately 80–90% of swirls, scratches & paint defects
  • Ceramic-infused paint sealant

Best for: Older or neglected paint, black and dark blue cars where every swirl shows up, and any car about to go under a multi-year ceramic coating.

We confirm vehicle size when you book. Pet hair, heavy sand and winter road salt can add time to a job. If that changes your price we will say so before we start, not after.

Paint Correction & Ceramic Coatings

How We Do
Paint Correction & Coatings

Paint Inspection First

The paint decides the package, not the price list. If a one-step gets your car 95% of the way there, we would rather sell you that than a two-step you do not need.

Paint Decontamination Included

Every correction package opens with a hand wash, chemical decontamination and a clay bar. Polishing over bonded contaminants just grinds them into the paint.

Machine Polishing

Defects get levelled with a machine polisher and then refined. What you drive away with is corrected paint that holds its gloss, instead of a filler glaze that washes out in three weeks.

Ceramic Protection On Top

Correction packages finish with a ceramic SiO₂ sealant. If you want the finish held for years rather than months, step up to a 1, 2 or 5-year coating.

Our Process

The Paint Correction & Coatings
Process

01

Paint Assessment

We look over the paint under proper lighting and agree which level of correction your car actually calls for.

02

Wash & Decontamination

Exterior hand wash, chemical paint decontamination, then a clay bar treatment to lift bonded contaminants off the surface.

03

Machine Correction

Compounding and polishing to level swirl marks, water spots, oxidation and light scratches.

04

Sealant Or Coating

A ceramic SiO₂ sealant or a full coating goes on last, and the car gets a final inspection before you see it.
