Paint Correction Brisbane

Keep your paintwork
flawless.

The ultimate detail starts here

Improve, enhance & protect your paintwork.

Paint correction is the craftsmanship of refining a painted surface, permanently removing as many imperfections as possible and restoring it to a better than new finish. These imperfections include but are not limited to, swirl marks, automated car wash marring, fine scratches, water spots, abrasions, etched bird droppings and buffer trails that are generally caused by poor washing methods.

It takes a very specific skillset, laser-sharp focus and immense patience in order to truly complete the highest degree of paint correction, whilst constantly monitoring the thickness of the surface you are working with and its integrity going forward, to ultimately achieve true “optical clarity” of the surface.

The ultimate detail starts here

We work with vehicles of all types.

Each type of paint has a different reaction and a different method of correction. The actual corrective process itself comprises of a small amount of clear coat or paint being removed from the surface with the use of abrasive polishes, which are applied and worked into the painted surface with the appropriate polishing machines to remove the imperfections.

All types of cars are different. Some soft, some hard, some thin, and some thick. In any case, we can help.

Level 2 – Minor Paint Correction

From $2,200 | Duration: 1-2 Days

Our minor paint correction detail is designed for vehicles with more severe paint defects. These defects can mainly be seen on darker cars, however lighter coloured cars will still have the defects there, only not as visible. Paint defects are mainly caused by automated car washes or poor washing techniques. These will be heavy swirl marks and scratches that will leave your paintwork dull and lacking in any depth of colour. Our two stage correction process allows us to firstly use cutting compound to remove 70 – 80% of visible surface marks in your paintwork. The second stage of the correction process is to use another polish to remove and refine any marks left from the initial cutting compound and also to add a level of gloss to the finish.

Detail Breakdown:

  • Pre rinse & snow foam
  • Arches washed & cleaned
  • Wheels deep cleansed
  • Decontamination of all painted surfaces using specialised products to remove any embedded contaminants or impurities
