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 am not the kind to leave reviews, but The Works did an amazing job with my Subaru. I took my car in yesterday and Quincy is absolutely amazing. You can tell the level of care that they put into your vehicle. There were stains that they were able to point out when they first inspect the car that I had never noticed. Detailing at other places I...
Highly recommend! Employees and the owner are professional and hard working. My car was cleaner after it’s wash at the works than it was when I bought it. Won’t take my car any other place for a wash. Looking forward to using other services from them in the future!
These guys do great work at a great price. It’s hard to find quality service in Boulder that’s reasonably priced and excellent quality. I will be telling all of my friends and coworkers about this shop. Shout out to the team at The Works, Boulder County appreciates you!
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.
