Paint Correction

What is Paint Correction?

Paint correction is a simple defect removal process we perform on every vehicle before applying a ceramic coating. Since ceramic coatings are a form of permanent paint correction, we need to ensure that the surface is as scratch free as possible so that the nano ceramic coating can bond properly to the car paint. We know how cars here in Gambrills, MD have to endure crazy weather and the fact of the matter is...paint defects are inevitable. We want to create a flawless finish before installing any form of permanent paint protection to keep your vehicle in TOP QUALITY condition.

What type of Paint Correction do I need?

So paint correction is the process of removing minor scratches and imperfections found in the vehicle's clear coat. We offer two types of paint correction here at quality car detailing.

One stage paint correction is a single step buffing process. Here we use one cutting compound and one finishing buffing pad. This type of paint correction is intended to remove swirl marks, light scratches and improve the gloss of the exterior paint.

Two stage paint correction is a two-step buffing process. Here we use two different polishes a heavy cutting one and a finer polish to bring back that beautiful gloss to the exterior paint.
