A CLOSER LOOK INTO THE ART OF PAINT CORRECTION

Paint correction is the art of refining the condition of paint to enhance its overall clarity, gloss, and depth. It is utilized as a way to remove defects from the surface of the paint and restore it to a like new finish.


Paint correction is an art form that isn’t able to be learned overnight, over a weekend, or even a week. It takes years of practice, product testing, and the need to understand how various paint systems work. Not all paint (clear coat) is the same. It varies from model to model, make to make. What works on one car may not work on another. Finding a detailer who understands this and is able to adapt to the conditions at hand is key in the overall result of your vehicle’s looks. It is also necessary to understand that if done incorrectly you can leave the surface worse than when you started. Burning edges, removing too much clear coat, and even inducing marring can be a result of an inexperienced detailer.


It is very important when choosing your detailer that you recognize that not all are the same. Anyone can buy polishers, pads, and chemicals. It’s how those tools are used is what defines true detailers from the ones trying to capitalize on an ever expanding market. Do your research, ask questions, look at their work and get a gauge of the quality work the shop produces.


Devil is in the Detail specializes in paint correction and ceramic coatings. We are trained, certified, and are constantly evolving our craft to ensure the highest level of workmanship possible. By working with top names in the industry we are able to provide you with a truly enhanced finish.

WHY SHOULD YOU BOOK PAINT CORRECTION?

WE WORK WITH YOUR VEHICLE’S NEEDS 

We Work with Your Vehicle’s Needs

One of the greatest advantages of paint correction at Devil is in the Detail is that this service is fully customizable to the needs of your vehicle. No two vehicles are ever the same, especially with regard to what affects their finish. At Devil is in the Detail, we assess the condition of each vehicle individually following thorough detailing services. Whether your vehicle has minor swirl marks or deeper surface scratches, we tailor the paint correction process to ensure that the right level of care is applied.

AN AIM TO REMOVE MILD DEFECTS 

An Aim to Remove Mild Defects

Swirl marks and scratches are common clear coat defects that can significantly dull your vehicle’s finish. These imperfections result from improper washing, such as automatic car washes, environmental factors, or mishandling of your paint. (wiping a dirty surface with your hand, leaning on your vehicle, etc.) With our professional paint correction services, we effectively remove these marks from your clear coat, revitalizing your vehicle's paint shine and making it look as good as new. We help your vehicle regain its original gloss and clarity, giving it a rejuvenated appearance that stands out for the better.

INCREASE YOUR VEHICLE’S PAINT LONGEVITY 

Increase Your Vehicle’s Paint Longevity

Paint correction not only improves the appearance of your vehicle but also increases the longevity of its paint. In turn, this increases its value as well. Removing surface defects helps reduce the risk of further surface degradation, including issues like oxidation which is known to cause premature surface wear and tear. When combined with a ceramic coating following paint correction, your vehicle’s paint will be better kept from exposure to future contaminants and UV exposure. All told paint correction is a quality investment, especially when paired with a ceramic coating.  A perfect example of this is farm equipment, which lacks a clear coat, will oxidize and fade quickly. Polishing will restore the gloss and depth of the paint, while the coating will act as a clear coat of sorts.

THE MOST COMMON MYTHS ABOUT PAINT CORRECTION

  • Myth 1: NEW CARS DON'T NEED PAINT CORRECTION

    Some vehicle owners mistakenly believe that paint correction is unnecessary on a brand new vehicle. This couldn't be further from the truth! Your vehicle is handled by many parties before it ends up in your possession. Each stage of its process can run the risk for potential defects. Swirls, marring, light scratches, left over sanding marks are extremely common and we see them on nearly ever vehicle that comes to our shop. This is true for all makes and models. When we say we will make your vehicle "better than new" we really mean it! Once done, we deliver a truly improved vehicle to you - as it should have from the start. Many owners would be shocked or at times appalled, by what our trained eyes will find once your vehicle is in our shop.

  • Myth 2: A more aggressive approach is always the answer

    It is a common misconception that more aggressive paint correction techniques always yield better results. Many vehicles, even those with prominent defects, do not need intense, aggressive approaches to paint correction. At Devil is in the Detail, we emphasize precision and care over brute force. We use a methodical approach to ensure that only the necessary level of correction is applied, avoiding unnecessary removal of excessive clear coat. Overly aggressive techniques can ultimately cause damage to your vehicle’s paint by reducing the thickness of the clear coat.


    This is where our years of practice and expertise come into play. We know how to correct paint without damaging the surface. Sometimes, with experience, you know when to call it good.

  • Myth 3: Only show vehicles need paint correction services

    Paint correction is not just for show vehicles, high-end models, or vehicles designed to be in a car show. It is a service that benefits any vehicle, whether you drive a daily driver or a weekend cruiser. Everyday wear and tear, exposure to the elements, and even regular improper washing techniques can cause defects like swirl marks, scratches, and surface oxidation. Paint correction brings back the clarity and gloss of your vehicle’s paint, making it look new again. At Devil is in the Detail, we believe that every vehicle deserves to look its best by providing excellent paint correction.
