Why would I need Paint Correction?
Any number of factors or circumstances require your vehicle’s paint needing to be corrected including contaminants from the driving environment, incorrect polishing and washing procedures, even automated car washes and regular wear and tear from your daily drive.
How Does Paint Correction Work?
Basically, the process of correcting your car’s paint involves removing a microscopic layer of clear coat to remove scratches and create a consistently smooth and flawless surface across the entire vehicle. Assessing the paint and measuring its thickness, then determining the depth of the defect to build a correction strategy.
The key factor is removing the most miniscule amount of surface level paint to achieve the maximum precisive visual improvement to your vehicle. The process continues with clay bar treatments to decontaminate the outer shell, then followed with controlled pressure of a polishing machine and direct and purposeful compound products.
The combination of skill, a lot of learned science, and technique in the process create the ultimate exterior experience from your local detailing professionals.
Will Paint Correction Fix Rock Chips?
Fixing the physical damage of rock chips on a vehicle requires a different set of repair techniques compared to the surface smoothing of a paint correction service. The correcting of knicks on your exterior includes a prep and clean of the area, applying a primer and a colour match, and finishing with a clear coat treatment.
How Does Paint Correction Affect My Clear Coat?
The process for correction involves reducing the paint thickness to remove imperfections at the most minimal impact possible. The clear coat already applied to your vehicle will need to have limited paint correction and dutiful polishing skills so as not to affect the paint protection.
Discussing expectations and the approach of the service is beneficial and ultimately crucial to understandings any risks that can be avoided or minimized to ensure the end service result is achieved to the customer’s satisfaction.
