A 1-step paint correction is a machine polishing service designed to enhance gloss, depth, and clarity while safely removing light to moderate defects in a single polishing stage. Using a professional polish combination, this service typically removes 50-60% of swirl marks, light scratches, oxidation, and haze, greatly improving the overall appearance without the time or cost of a multi-stage correction. It is recommended for daily-driven vehicles, newer vehicles needing a glass boost, lease returns, or vehicles being prepped for protection like a sealant or ceramic coating. Vehicles with heavier defects or deeper scratches may require a multi-step correction for higher-level results.
A 2-step paint correction is designed to significantly improve your vehicle’s finish. Step one compounds to reduce deeper swirls and defects, while step two refines and restores gloss and clarity. This service typically removes 70-80% of visible imperfections, depending on paint conditions and thickness. Ideal for vehicles with moderate swirl marks, oxidation, and noticeable wear.
