Understanding Paint Correction
Paint correction is a meticulous, multi-step process designed to restore your vehicle’s paint by permanently removing surface defects such as swirl marks, scratches, oxidation, and haze.
Unlike basic polishing, which only enhances gloss temporarily, true paint correction safely levels the clear coat using professional compounds, machines, and lighting. This process reveals a deeper, clearer, mirror-like finish while dramatically improving the overall appearance and value of your vehicle
.
Paint correction is ideal for luxury, classic, and performance vehicles, and it is also the essential preparation step before applying a ceramic coating.
Our Process and Technology
At Scott’s Custom Auto Spa & Ceramic Coatings, true paint correction starts with precision inspection and professional-grade equipment.
We use ScanGrip multi-spectrum inspection lighting, specifically designed for accurate paint correction. These high-performance LED lights allow us to reveal swirl marks, scratches, oxidation, and haze that are often invisible under standard lighting.
By adjusting light temperature and intensity, we can clearly identify defects across all paint colours and finishes. This ensures every stage of correction is performed accurately and safely, without unnecessary removal of clear coat.
Combined with premium compounds, machine polishing systems, and proven correction techniques, our process delivers consistent, high-level results with maximum clarity, depth, and long-term finish integrity.
Our Multi-Stage Paint Correction for Maximum Gloss
All paint correction packages include:
3-step paint decontamination - Prep wash - Clay bar - Masking prior to corrections.
Note: Every vehicle's paint is unique, whether new or used. To determine the best course of action, we need to see the vehicle's paint and use a digital paint thickness gauge prior to an in-person quote.
