PAINT CORRECTION: THE ULTIMATE RESTORATION

BRING YOUR VEHICLE BACK TO LIFE: AN INVESTMENT WITH HUGE RETURN

The goal of paint correction is to remove swirls and imperfections from your vehicle's paint so it can shine.  Our premium services have what it takes to repair most defects, but deep scratches will not be treatable without paint touch-ups. For deep clear coat scratches, check out our scratch repair service. From water spots to swirls, our multi-step renewal services can help your car look brand new again while maintaining the integrity of your paint. 


Paint correction typically takes 6 - 20 hours depending on the services you book. However, the value is immense, especially if you want to ceramic coat your vehicle afterwards. 


Check out our paint correction process below:

The Dazzle Paint correction process

1️⃣ Clean the Vehicle

To start, we must clean the vehicle to ensure that no dirt is left over. This cleaning process is the same that we use in our exterior detail, aside from the dressings and wax. 

2️⃣ Clay Bar + Iron Decon

The next step is to decontaminate your paint. No matter how often you wash your vehicle, certain contaminants like iron particles can't be removed without this special process.

3️⃣ Compound Phase

To begin the paint correction step, we use a cutting pad, DA polisher, and compound to remove the majority of swirls and scratches from your paint.

4️⃣ Polishing Phase

To continue the paint correction process, we'll remove micro-scratches from the compound phase with a polishing pad, DA polisher, and light polish. This will increase the shine and clarity of your paint.

5️⃣ Panel Prep

To prepare the vehicle for the protection step of your choice (wax or ceramic coating), we will remove leftover polish residue with diluted isopropyl alcohol.

6️⃣ Apply Protection

Whether you get a wax or ceramic coating is up to you. Both are good choices for protecting your paint, and this is crucial to ensure long-term beauty and paint health.

7️⃣ Dress Tires, Plastic, and Trim

Just like a standard exterior detail, we will dress your plastic and trim to restore the color and shine, and protect it from fading. We will also coat your tires in a 4-month tire coating that will leave them shiny and black. 

8️⃣ Clean Glass

We will clean your glass and mirrors to a streak-free finish

9️⃣ Final Touch-Ups

We will inspect your vehicle to make sure we've done our best to restore it, and we'll touch up any areas that need attention
