What is Paint Correction & The steps of Paint Correction
Paint Correction is the process of restoring a vehicle’s paint through proper removal of paint defects and surface imperfections such as scratches, swirls, oxidation, marring, hazing, and etching from bird droppings or acid rain. Paint correction services renew the surface of the paint to give it more gloss and reflection. Defects occur for various reasons, but most occur due to improper washing and drying techniques and not properly maintaining the exterior of the vehicle.
​
Step 1 is to hand wash and dry the vehicle properly, Step 2 is to decontaminate and clay the vehicle to remove surface contaminants, Step 3 would be to compound the vehicle if paint is highly defective, Step 4 is to polish the entire vehicle (step 3 if compound is not needed), and Step 5 is to apply high quality protection to the paint with either wax, sealant, or ceramic coating.
