Paint enhancement is a process of restoring and improving the appearance of a vehicle's paintwork by removing imperfections such as swirl marks, scratches, and oxidation. It involves using a polishing compound to gently abrade the surface of the paint, removing a thin layer of clear coat to eliminate these imperfections, up to 70% improvements.

The process begins with a thorough cleaning of the vehicle's exterior to remove any dirt, debris, and contaminants. Then, a medium cutting compound is applied to the surface and worked in using a polisher. This compound helps to level out the surface by removing a small amount of clear coat and smoothing out imperfections.

A paint enhancement is a less aggressive process compared to multi-stage paint correction, as it does not involve the use of multiple polishing steps and different grades of abrasive compounds. It is suitable for vehicles with minor to moderate paint imperfections and can significantly improve the overall appearance of the paintwork.

What is Paint Correction & Enhancement?

A paint correction plus enhancement is a more intensive process compared to paint enhancement involving multiple steps and different levels of abrasive compounds to restore and enhance the appearance of a vehicle's paintwork, up to 98% improvements.

The first stage of the process involves using a heavy cutting compound with a more aggressive abrasive to remove deeper scratches, swirl marks, and other imperfections from the paint surface. This step will effectively level out the paint and remove a larger amount of clear coat.

After the initial cutting stage, the next step is a refining or polishing stage. This involves using a finer abrasive polish to further refine the surface, remove any remaining imperfections, and enhance the gloss and clarity of the paint. This step is essential for achieving a deep, mirror-like finish and restoring the paint to its original lustre.

Paint correction and enhancement is suitable for vehicles with more severe paint imperfections, heavy swirl marks, and deep scratches. It is a more comprehensive and time-consuming process, but it can achieve dramatic improvements in the overall appearance of the vehicle's paintwork, resulting in a showroom-quality finish.
