Over time, paint picks up swirl marks, fine scratches and dullness from washing and the weather. Paint correction machine-polishes those defects out in stages, restoring depth, clarity and gloss. It is also the essential first step before ceramic coating or PPF, because protection should only ever go over paint that has been perfected first.

Alongside correction we offer full detailing, cut and polish, interior deep cleans, leather care and complete details, all done in our Bayswater North studio. We assess the paint honestly and recommend the level of correction that actually suits your car and your goals.

FAQ

Common questions

What is paint correction?

It is the process of machine-polishing paint to remove swirl marks, scratches and oxidation, restoring gloss and clarity. It is measured and done in stages depending on the paint's condition.

Do I need correction before a coating?

Yes, ideally. A coating locks in whatever is underneath, so correcting the paint first means the coating shows off a flawless finish, not the defects.

How long does detailing take?

It depends on the car and the level of work, from a few hours for an enhancement detail to a full day or more for multi-stage correction. We will give you a clear estimate.

Can you get rid of every scratch?

Most swirls and light scratches, yes. Deeper scratches that have gone through the clear coat may be safely improved rather than fully removed. We always tell you honestly what is achievable.
