Myths and Facts About Paint Correction

The number 1 is in a circle on a white background.
Myth 1: All scratches can be completely removed with paint correction

Not all scratches are the same. Paint correction is highly effective at removing or minimizing light to moderate defects in the clear coat. However, if a scratch has gone through to the base coat or primer, no amount of polishing will make it disappear completely. At Autoworx Pro Detailing, we assess the depth of defects and set the right expectations before beginning any work on your vehicle.

Myth 2: DIY polishers can achieve the same results as professional paint correction

There is a big difference between using a consumer-grade polisher and having trained technicians perform multi-stage paint correction using professional tools, compounds, and lighting. At Autoworx Pro Detailing, we have the experience to know which polish and pad combinations to use as well as how much clear coat to safely remove. Our years of experience allows us to deliver consistent, swirl-free results without causing any damage.

The number three is in a black circle on a white background.
Myth 3: One paint correction service fixes everything in one pass

Paint correction is not a one-pass, one-size-fits-all process. Some vehicles may need only a single polishing step, while others may require two or even three stages of paint correction to achieve optimal results. At Autoworx Pro Detailing, we customize every paint correction process we perform based on your vehicle’s condition and desired outcome.

Frequently Asked Questions About Paint Correction Services

  • Can paint correction be done on matte or satin finishes?

    Traditional paint correction is not recommended for matte or satin finishes because the polishing process can alter the uniform look and sheen. At Autoworx Pro Detailing, we evaluate the condition of matte surfaces and recommend alternative solutions to safely maintain them.

  • Does paint correction remove my clear coat?

    Paint correction removes a microscopic layer of your vehicle’s clear coat. It is just enough to level out scratches, swirl marks, and other imperfections. We measure paint depth and use safe, expertly controlled correction techniques to level the clear coat. This ensures the integrity of your clear coat is preserved while still delivering outstanding results.

  • Can paint correction fix water spots and etching?

    Yes, in most cases. Water spots and acid rain often leave behind etching that creates minor defects in your vehicle’s clear coat. Depending on the severity, paint correction can significantly reduce or eliminate the visibility of these spots. In deeper cases, wet sanding or a more advanced correction process may be necessary—and we will always walk you through your options.
