Paint Correction & Gloss Enhancement
What is Paint Correction & Gloss Enhancement?
Paint correction is a machine polishing process designed to remove imperfections such as swirl marks, light scratches and surface defects from your vehicle’s paintwork. Over time, these imperfections dull the finish; correction restores clarity, depth and a smooth, refined appearance.
Gloss enhancement is a lighter process focused on improving the overall shine and finish of the paintwork. While it removes fewer defects, it significantly boosts gloss and colour depth, making it a great option for vehicles in better condition or those looking for a noticeable visual upgrade.
