Paint correction is a way to describe the process of restoring and rejuvenating your vehicle’s paint. Specifically, the removal and leveling of your clear coat to achieve a near flawless finish. Oxidation, hazing, over-spray, water marks, micro marring, swirls, and scratches are all imperfections that can be corrected. Typically, these imperfections are noticed due to the many direct reflections of light hitting the surface of your vehicle.
Paint correction is not something that is a necessity, but rather a Luxury. Washing often and properly decontaminating and protecting your vehicle will be enough. But if you are tired of seeing your dull and lifeless paint, this is for you.
Paint correction takes time, patience, and skill that you can typically only find from a reputable detailer. Some say that paint correction is overkill because often your car looks better than it did off the factory line. Here at Reload Detailing, we believe this is the way all cars deserve to look.
Paint Correction Maintenance is at utmost importance
Paint correction is a very time consuming, labor-intensive, and often expensive process. It is important that you take the appropriate steps to maintain that level of finish and prevent the need for further correction soon. This can be done by having your vehicle frequently washed by a reputable auto detailer or with the appropriate techniques, tools and chemicals (Wash mitts, gloves, drying towels, polymer boost). If you plan to take your vehicle to the local car wash after correction you can throw all that hard work and money out the window. Car washes are very abrasive and you can expect the condition of your paint to be back to where it was or even worse.
In effort to get the best out of your now flawless paint, we highly recommend a ceramic coating. With a ceramic coating, you do not have to run the risk of using an abrasive on it regularly because of the advance protective and hydrophobic properties that helps preserve the paint and allow for years of easier cleaning.
