Paint correction is the process of removing minor scratches and imperfections found in the vehicles clear coat. Using an electric polisher, a microfiber buffing pad, and a special "cutting" compound (extremely fine abrasive), the detailer will "cut" into the clear coat of a vehicle’s paint till the scratches are leveled or removed.
Paint Correction, also referred to as Polishing, involves using a series of very fine abrasive compounds to remove minor scratches and imperfections in your cars clear coat.
These fine scratches in your paints clear coat are responsible for the notorious "swirls" you see when sunlight reflects off your vehicle. These "swirls" are not actually circular scratches, but rather, they are just random scratches that appear as almost holographic swirls when reflecting a point source of light such as the sun, or as seen here, the shop lights.
This process also naturally removes all of the oxidation on the surface of your clear coat that dulls the exterior of your vehicle. Depending on the degree of damage, we may have to start with a more aggressive compound to "cut" deeper into the clear coat (sometimes even using fine sand paper), and follow up with another one of two finer "cuts" to restore the gloss of your clear coat.
The result is a gloss and shine that in many cases exceeds the one you remember when your vehicle came off the factory floor (see the before and after pictures below). In fact, many of our customers bring their brand-new vehicles in for a Polish to remove any minor imperfections from the factory prior to receiving a ceramic coating. If you are considering a ceramic coating for your older vehicle, it is wise to consider a paint correction prior to doing so.
I had my car detailed (Tesla Model 3), inside and out, and a ceramic coating applied to the exterior. When I arrived they had a few other cars they were working on, all really nice cars (much more expensive than mine), which made me feel like this place is the real deal. The results were fantastic and the service was even better. The price was...
Marcus is very responsive, followed through with everything he promised, delivered the vehicle on time and it was beautiful. Highly recommend Marcus and The Works to anyone who wants fair prices, great work and a responsible, honest shop to work with.
I recently got my truck ceramic coated here. Leo and his crew did an awesome job. The pricing was very reasonable for the high quality of work. I live on a dirt road, and with the coating, a 5 min power wash has my truck looking good as new. I highly recommend The Works for any auto detailing or paint work.
I don’t know how they’re able to sustain their business because I’m pretty sure they just straight up bought me a new car. My car wasn’t this new even when I first got it.
