Paint Correction

Service Description

What is Paint Correction? Paint Correction Miami Florida Paint correction is a simple defect removal process we preform on every vehicle before applying a ceramic coating. Because ceramic coatings are a form of permanent paint protection, we need to ensure that the surface is as scratch free as possible so that the nano ceramic coating can bond properly to the car paint. We know how car's here in Miami, FL have to endure crazy weather, and the fact is paint defects are inevitable. We want to create a flawless finish before installing any form of permanent paint protection to keep your vehicle in TOP CONDITION. Stage 1 Paint Correction This one is self-explanatory. It’s a single step polishing job using a cutting compound (or the liquid polish) and a pad. The single stage paint correction is intended to remove small marring and swirl marks that are lightly removed. Stage 2 Paint Correction When the car’s paint has moderate or medium swirl marks and scratches that are embedded in the clear, stage 2 is the next progression. At this point, you’re going to use (2) different polishes and pad combinations. Typically – it starts by using a more abrasive polish first, then stepping down to a finer compound, to remove any light scratches left by the first step. Stage 3 Paint Correction If you get to this point – it’s a good idea to do some careful research and perhaps defer to a professional. This is a three-step program, where the car’s paintjob has heavy swirl marks, marring, or other defects. The first step involves using a heavy cutting compound, with a machine polisher, and polishing pad – to really dig into that paint damage. The second step progressively decreases the grit, and finally, a light polishing compound should smooth out the damage. Why is Paint Correction Completed?
