Paint correction is the mechanical leveling of clear coat or single-stage paint to a point where it is free of swirl marks and light scratches. These imperfections are often caused by improper washing techniques, automatic car washes, or environmental fallout.
Unlike “buffing” or “polishing” at a standard car wash, true paint correction involves a meticulous multi-step process using specialized machine polishers, various grades of abrasive compounds, and precision pads to remove a microscopic layer of the clear coat, revealing a perfectly smooth and reflective surface.
By removing microscopic imperfections, light reflects perfectly off your paint, creating a ‘wet’ mirror finish.
A vehicle with flawless paint commands a much higher resale price and stands out in any market.
Unlike glazes or waxes, correction doesn’t hide scratches—it removes them entirely for a permanent fix.
Ceramic coatings bond significantly better to corrected paint, ensuring maximum durability and performance.

Our Stage 2 Paint Correction is suited for vehicles with moderate swirl marks and medium-heavy scratches. It involves an initial abrasive polish and pad combination to remove these moderate defects, followed by a finer finishing polish to eliminate remaining marring or holograms, delivering a clear, glossy finish.
• Complete exterior decontamination wash to remove all dirt and grime
• Clay bar treatment to eliminate any embedded contaminants from the paint surface
• Assessment of paint condition and swirl marks
• Aggressive polishing using specialized compounds and pads to remove moderate defects and scratches.
• Fine polishing stage to restore clarity, depth, and high gloss to paintwork

Our Step 1 correction is often called a “Paint Enhancement.” It utilizes a single machine polishing cycle with a dual-action polisher. This step is designed to remove light swirl marks, oxidation, and “hazing” to bring back the original depth and gloss of the paint.
Step 2 is a heavy-duty restorative process. We begin with a “Cutting” stage using high-abrasive compound to level out deeper scratches and heavy swirl marks. We then follow with a “Finishing” stage to remove any holograms left by the first stage and polish the paint to a jewel-like finish.
I got a detail job done by Josh in late October! He was timely, communicative, and did an incredibly thorough job making our newly acquired used car look like it just rolled off the lot for the first time!
He has true passion for his work and does an amazing job, if you are reading this review, absolutely do not hesitate to make that reservation. Worth every penny!
I’m a little late posting the review. A couple of months ago, the team came on site at work and did several cars throughout the day. They were meticulous, professional, and they did a fantastic job. My car was spotless, was like new, and smelled great.
Highly recommend!
Josh was very professional. He did a great job cleaning my Honda Civic, made it feel new again. Prices are reasonable. He highly recommend
Josh did an exceptional cleaning job, bringing the SUV back to life after many months of toddler wear and tear 😂 He was punctual, affordable and will definitely be calling him for all future detailing!
Great job! Loved the new car look without the cheap trick of making everything glossy like a lot of other detailers do. Will definitely be using his services again!
Josh came and hooked me up with some major scratch and swirl removal on my new vehicle and finished it off with a 10 year ceramic coat. Very trustworthy and provides quality work, I’m looking forward to working with Saiibu again.
