What is paint correction?

What is paint correction?

Unsightly paint defects accumulate on your vehicle over time. The sun's UV rays cause premature fading and cloudiness, and poor washing will cause swirls and scratches, among other environmental factors in Kansas City.

What's included in paint correction?

What's included in paint correction?

Every paint correction detail includes:

  • Decontamination Wash: The vehicle is washed to remove contaminants and prep the surface for refinement (tar, bug, and iron removal, clay bar treatment)

  • Surface Inspection: Paint condition is assessed under special lighting, and paint depth measurements are recorded.

  • Precision Polishing: We use different sized machines to refine every painted surface. Heavy cut passes remove deep scratches, and finishing steps add deep gloss and luster.

  • Lasting Protection: Now that the surface is refined, we preserve the shine with a 12 month ceramic coating from Feynlab. This is the standard level of protection for all of our paint correction details.
