Why Paint Correction?

Swirls are the Enemy. You might have seen our hashtag but it's more like a motto – swirls, scratches, marring, defects and deterioration are all the enemies of beautiful paintwork and a fresh-looking vehicle. This is why paint correction forms the foundation of all of our packages at Distinct Detail.



WHAT IS PAINT CORRECTION? 


Using a machine buffer and specialist compounds and polishes, we abrade (remove) small amounts of clear-coat to remove swirls, etchings, light scratches and minimise the appearance of deeper marks. This levelling of the paintwork leads to higher gloss by removing defects which bounce light away and lead to a dull, tired finish.


As we practice responsible paint correction detailing, we only remove enough clear-coat to remove defects - using a paint thickness guage allows us to monitor removal and ensure greater safety.


We also don't believe in offering TRUE paint correction without thoroughly protecting surfaces afterwards, which is why ALL of the packages below include ceramic composite coating protection.
