When paintwork has lost gloss or clarity, washing alone may no longer deliver the finish you want. The appropriate correction route depends on the paint’s condition and the improvement you’re looking for.
(01) — Who it is for
For owners whose vehicle looks dull or marked even when clean, and who want the paintwork improved before protection and ongoing care.
(02) — What it addresses
Swirl marks, wash marring, haze and reduced gloss can leave paintwork looking tired. Correction focuses on these visible defects, with the level of work matched to the vehicle.
(03) — What to expect
Depending on the paint’s condition and the correction level chosen, the aim is improved gloss, greater clarity and fewer visible defects, creating a better starting point for protection and maintenance.
What determines the right correction route?
- The paintwork’s current condition
- The level of improvement you want
- The preparation and finishing time required
- How the vehicle will be maintained afterwards

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need full correction?
Not always. Some vehicles only need a lighter route to achieve the right improvement. The recommendation depends on the paint’s actual condition and the result you want to achieve.
Can pricing be confirmed from photos?
Photos can help give an initial view, especially in good light, but some vehicles may still need inspection before final pricing is confirmed.
Should ceramic protection follow correction?
In many cases, yes. Once the paint is corrected to the right baseline, protection helps preserve the finish and makes future upkeep easier.
How long will the result last?
That depends on how the vehicle is used and maintained afterwards. Good maintenance helps keep the finish from slipping backwards unnecessarily.
Why does pricing vary?
Because the time, preparation and scope vary with vehicle size, condition and previous history.
