FAQ
Paint correction questions
What is the difference between paint enhancement and paint correction?
A one-step paint enhancement is a single machine polish that boosts gloss and softens light swirls. A two-step paint correction adds a heavier cutting step first, removing far more swirls and scratches before refining the finish.
Can paint correction remove every scratch?
It removes defects that sit in the clear coat, like swirls, wash marring and light scratches. Scratches that go through the clear coat to the color or primer can be improved but not fully removed. We inspect the paint and tell you what to expect before we start.
Is paint correction done at my house?
Yes. We bring the polishers, lighting, power and water and correct the paint at your home or office anywhere in the Greater Phoenix area.
How long does paint correction take?
A one-step enhancement usually takes around 3 to 3.5 hours, and a two-step correction around 3.5 to 4.5 hours, depending on vehicle size and paint condition.
Should I ceramic coat after paint correction?
It is the best time to do it. A coating locks in the corrected finish and makes it much easier to keep swirl-free.
