Paint correction is one of the most misunderstood services in the detailing world. Here's what a real multi-stage correction looks like — and why a polish that hides swirls for two washes isn't correction at all.
Correction vs Enhancement vs Glaze
True correction levels the clear coat around a defect using measured cut and polish steps. Enhancements and glazes fill defects temporarily. Under swirl lighting after two washes, the difference is obvious.
Multi-Stage Process
Cut, refine, and finish — with clear-coat measurements at every step. Read our Alpharetta process guide for the full walkthrough.
When Correction Is Required Before Coating
Coating over uncorrected paint locks in every swirl for the life of the coating. This is the single most common preventable mistake we correct on second-hand exotics coming out of Buckhead.
