Paint Correction and Ceramic Coating
These advanced services involve detailed processes, multiple options, and important benefits that require more explanation than typical detailing packages — so you can make the best informed choice for your vehicle’s care.
Paint Correction
What is Paint Correction?
Paint correction is a professional detailing process designed to restore and rejuvenate your vehicle’s exterior paint by removing imperfections such as swirl marks, scratches, oxidation, water spots, and other blemishes. Over time, daily driving, washing, and exposure to the elements can cause damage to your car’s paint, leaving it dull or hazy. Paint correction helps to bring back that deep, glossy finish that looks like new.
Why Do You Need Paint Correction?
Even the best paint jobs suffer from wear and tear. If you want your vehicle to look its absolute best — whether for daily pride of ownership, resale value, or preparing for a protective coating — paint correction is essential. It not only improves the appearance but also smooths the surface so protective layers like ceramic coatings adhere better and last longer.
The Process
Our paint correction service involves carefully polishing the paint using specialized compounds and polishing pads with a dual-action or rotary polisher. Depending on the severity of paint defects, this process can involve one or multiple steps:
1-Step Correction ($300 for sedans, $500 for SUVs and trucks)
Removes light imperfections and enhances gloss. Typically achieves about 70-80% correction of paint defects.
2-Step Correction ($600 for sedans, $1,000 for SUVs and trucks)
Addresses moderate defects with a deeper polish, removing more scratches and swirl marks. Typically achieves about 85-90% correction.
Full Paint Correction ($900 for sedans, $1,500 for SUVs and trucks)
A thorough multi-step process that tackles heavy defects and restores the paint to near-showroom condition. Typically achieves about 95-99% correction.
Each step requires precision, expertise, and time to ensure the paint is properly polished without causing damage.
How Long Does It Take?
Paint correction can take anywhere from a few hours for a simple 1-step polish on smaller vehicles, up to multiple days for full correction on larger SUVs or trucks. Time depends on the level of correction needed and the vehicle’s size.

Ceramic Coatings
What is a Ceramic Coating?
A ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to your vehicle’s paint that chemically bonds to the surface, creating a durable, protective layer. This coating provides superior protection against UV rays, chemical stains, bird droppings, road salt, and minor scratches. It also makes washing easier by repelling dirt and water, resulting in a glossy, hydrophobic finish that lasts much longer than traditional waxes or sealants.
Two-Year Ceramic Coating
Price: $300 for sedans, $500 for SUVs and trucks. Provides durable protection and enhanced gloss for up to 2 years. Comes with a complimentary exterior detail two weeks after application to ensure optimal curing and finish.
Lifetime Ceramic Coating (8-Year Warranty)
Price: $900 for sedans, $1,500 for SUVs and trucks. Offers long-term, near-permanent protection backed by an 8-year warranty. Requires a 2-step paint correction before application to ensure the coating bonds perfectly to a flawless surface. Also includes a complimentary exterior detail two weeks after application.
Why Choose a Ceramic Coating?
Long-lasting protection from environmental damage. Easier cleaning and maintenance due to hydrophobic properties. Enhanced paint depth and gloss for a showroom finish. Helps maintain your vehicle’s resale value. Protects your investment in paint correction
Application Process
Proper surface preparation is critical. For the 2-year coating, a thorough wash and surface decontamination are performed. For the lifetime coating, we perform a full 2-step paint correction to create an ideal bonding surface, ensuring the coating adheres properly and lasts as long as possible.
Maintenance
To maximize the life and effectiveness of your ceramic coating: Use gentle, pH-neutral car wash products. Avoid abrasive cleaners or automatic car washes with brushes. Schedule periodic maintenance details to replenish the coating’s protective layer
