Car Detailing & Paint Correction

Car detailing involves deep cleaning the exterior and interior of the car, polishing and waxing the exterior, shampooing and conditioning the upholstery, and treating the dashboard and other surfaces with protectants.

Paint correction is a very intricate and sophisticated process, which can only be carried out with complete precision by a highly experienced professional. Our paint correction process is carefully done to give your car the original showroom look it used to have. This procedure will help protect your vehicle from even some of the harshest British weather for approximately a year.

It involves measuring the paintwork of a vehicle with a Digital Paint Thickness Gauge in numerous locations across each individual panel to determine how much paint remains on the car’s exterior. Then, the paintwork is clay-barred to remove embedded contaminations and imperfections, machine-polished down to the source of the scratch or blemish to permanently remove it from the paintwork.

PAINT CORRECTION PACKAGES

STAGE 1 - PAINT CORRECTION


Stage 1 paint correction is just that, polishing the paint in a single stage with only one type of polish and pad combination.This is suited to paintwork in good condition already that has no real visible swirls and only very minor marring.

The paintwork is then refined using only a finishing polish and pad which is generally not abrasive enough to remove swirl marks and scratches.

It is then followed by a wax and paint sealant.

What is Car Detailing & Paint Correction?

Car detailing is the process of thoroughly cleaning and restoring the appearance of a vehicle, both inside and out. It involves a meticulous and systematic approach to cleaning, polishing, and protecting a car to enhance its overall look and maintain its condition. Car detailing services typically include washing and waxing the exterior, cleaning and conditioning the interior, and detailing the engine bay, wheels, and tires. A properly detailed car not only looks better but also maintains its resale value and longevity.

Paint correction is a specialised detailing technique used to remove imperfections and restore the shine and clarity of a car's paintwork. Over time, a car's paint can become damaged and dull due to scratches, swirl marks, and other defects. Paint correction involves a series of steps, including washing, claying, polishing, and buffing, to eliminate these imperfections and restore the paint's original luster. This process requires skill, patience, and attention to detail, as it involves using specialised equipment and techniques to remove a thin layer of clear coat from the surface of the paint.

Professional car detailing and paint correction services can significantly enhance the appearance of a vehicle and protect its value.They are particularly beneficial for those who want to maintain the appearance of their car for years to come or prepare it for sale. A well-detailed car not only looks better but also provides a more enjoyable driving experience, as it is more comfortable, smells better, and provides a sense of pride and ownership. Additionally, paint correction can help prevent rust and other forms of damage, prolonging the life of a car's paintwork.

In summary, car detailing and paint correction are important services that can help keep a vehicle in top condition. They involve a detailed and systematic approach to cleaning, restoring, and protecting a car's interior and exterior, and are particularly useful for those who want to maintain the value and appearance of their car. Whether you are looking to keep your car looking new for years to come or preparing it for sale, professional car detailing and paint correction services can provide a significant return on investment.
