Paint correction — assessment required
Restore gloss. Understand what polishing can improve.
This service is published as a draft. Paint correction is confirmed as available only once provider skill, the inspection process, a suitable work environment and pricing are verified. No booking or charge is made before assessment.
What polishing can address
Genuine defect examples would appear here from real work. Until approved assets exist, these are descriptive only — not a result claim.
Swirl marks
Fine circular marring, often from improper washing.
Haze & dull paint
A loss of clarity and gloss from oxidation or wear.
Light scratches
Surface marks that may reduce with machine polishing.
Minor wash marks
Light directional marring across a panel.
Cleaning vs gloss enhancement vs multi-stage correction
A wash, a single-stage gloss enhancement and a multi-stage correction are different jobs. We do not promise a defect-removal percentage.
| Outcome | Wash | Gloss enhancement | Multi-stage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Removes loose dirt | |||
| Reduces swirl & haze | |||
| Deeper defect reduction | Partial | ||
| Removes deep scratches / failed clear |

Inspection and scope process
- 01
Paint assessment
We inspect condition, depth where suitable and the type of defects present.
- 02
Scope & stages
We recommend an appropriate process — single-stage or multi-stage — based on the paint.
- 03
Test area
A test area confirms the approach before the whole vehicle is committed.
- 04
Confirm price
The total is agreed with you before any machine work begins.
Paint measurement and a test area become inclusions only if the provider actually performs them.
Pricing approach
The quote identifies whether wash and decontamination, masking and preparation, machine work and protection are included. We use a tailored quote until the process and pricing are approved — the current starting figure is not validated for every job or stage.
- Wash and decontamination included or separately quoted
- Preparation and masking confirmed in scope
- Machine work stages agreed before booking
- Protective finishing product specified
Suitable location and time
Machine polishing needs a suitable work environment — clean, shaded and with enough time. We confirm the location, access and duration with you before booking. City coverage is confirmed only where the provider actually serves it.
Protection after polishing
A protective finishing product helps preserve the improved gloss. Ceramic coating is a separate next step only if supported — with its own preparation requirements explained.
