About our paint correction service

At Definition Detailing, we offer a fully mobile paint correction service designed to restore your vehicle’s paintwork to perfection. Whether your car is suffering from swirl marks, oxidation, light scratches, or general dullness, our expert team brings professional-grade correction directly to your location, eliminating the need for a workshop visit. Using industry-leading dual-action and rotary polishers, premium compounds, and advanced techniques, we meticulously remove imperfections and refine the paint to achieve an ultra-glossy, mirror-like finish.

Paint correction is more than just polishing—it’s a detailed process that carefully eliminates surface defects rather than simply masking them. Our process begins with a thorough wash and decontamination to remove dirt, tar, and bonded contaminants, ensuring the cleanest possible surface. We then carry out a comprehensive inspection under specialist lighting to identify imperfections before using precision machine polishing techniques to cut, refine, and enhance the finish. Every vehicle is assessed individually to determine the correct level of correction, from a single-stage enhancement to a full multi-stage correction for deeper imperfections.

Our mobile service offers the ultimate convenience, allowing you to have your vehicle professionally corrected at home, work, or any location that suits you. We tailor the process to the unique characteristics of your vehicle’s paint, ensuring maximum correction while preserving the integrity of the clear coat. For long-term protection and durability, we also offer optional ceramic coatings and high-end sealants to lock in the flawless finish.

This service is ideal for car enthusiasts, collectors, daily drivers, or anyone looking to rejuvenate their paintwork. Whether you’re preparing a vehicle for sale, maintaining a cherished classic, or correcting dealership-induced swirl marks on a new car, our expertise ensures that your paintwork is refined to the highest standard.

Experience the Definition Detailing difference, where precision and convenience come together to deliver outstanding results. Book your mobile paint correction today and let us transform your vehicle’s appearance with professional-grade expertise.

Our process

how we achieve award winning results
01

Inspection and Paint Assessment

We begin with a thorough inspection under specialist lighting to assess the condition of the paint. Using a paint depth gauge, we measure the thickness of the clear coat to ensure safe correction while identifying defects such as swirl marks, oxidation, and deeper scratches.

02

Safe Wash and Decontamination

Before any machine polishing, we deep clean the vehicle to remove surface contaminants. This includes a snow foam pre-wash, a safe two-bucket hand wash, and a full chemical and mechanical decontamination using tar removers, iron fallout removers, and a clay bar to ensure a completely smooth surface.

03

Masking and Preparation

To protect sensitive areas such as trims, badges, and rubber seals, we mask off edges and high-risk sections. This ensures that polishing is focused solely on the paintwork, preventing unwanted damage to surrounding materials.

04

Machine Polishing and Paint Refinement

Using a combination of rotary and dual-action polishers, we begin a multi-stage polishing process to remove defects and refine the surface. This can involve:

Cutting stage – Using aggressive compounds and pads to remove deeper defects.

Refining stage – A finer polish is used to restore clarity, depth, and gloss, ensuring a mirror-like finish.

The number of polishing stages depends on the level of correction required, ranging from a single-stage enhancement to a multi-stage correction for heavily marked paintwork.

05

Panel Wipe and Inspection

Once polishing is complete, we use a panel wipe solution to remove any polishing oils, ensuring the true condition of the paint is visible. This prevents any temporary fillers from masking defects and allows us to check that the correction is permanent.

06

Protection Application

To preserve the newly corrected finish, we apply a high-quality protection layer. This can be a ceramic coating, paint sealant, or premium wax, depending on the client’s preference. This not only enhances the gloss but also provides long-term protection against contaminants, UV damage, and wash-induced marring.

07

Final Quality Control and Handover

Before handing the vehicle back, we perform a final quality control check under specialist lighting to ensure every panel meets our high standards. We then provide aftercare advice to help maintain the finish and keep the paintwork looking its best for as long as possible.

Our paint correction service is tailored to each vehicle, ensuring that we achieve the best possible finish while preserving the integrity of the paint. Whether you’re looking to enhance your car’s gloss or completely restore its appearance, our expert process ensures outstanding results every time.
