Paint Correction & Ceramic Coating
Why Paint Correction is important BEFORE applying ceramic coating
What is Paint Correction?
Paint Correction is the process of removing minor scratches and imperfections found in the vehicles clear coat. This can require multiple processes depending on the condition of the clear coat.
Where does the scratches , swirl marks and imperfections come from?
Scratches and swirl marks can come from day to day use, tree branches, automatic car washes, you name it. Your vehicles clear coat is meant to protect the actual paint from damage. However that doesn’t mean the clear coat needs to stay with imperfections. That’s where paint correction comes in. Want to keep your clear coat from being damaged? Now that’s where Ceramic Coating takes place.
What is Ceramic Coating?
Ceramic Coating creates an inseparable bond on a molecular level with your paintwork to get a hard glossy shell that cannot be washed off like a wax or a sealant.
The new clear coating is glossier, chemical resistant, and harder than the original clear coat. This incredible barrier of protection against minor scratches, swirl marks, acid rain, bird droppings, and harmful UV rays that would otherwise etch into the paints surface.

Why is Paint Correction Important BEFORE applying a ceramic coating?
The paint correction process prepares your vehicles clear coat or single stage paint for another layer of protection. This ensure that the ceramic coating bonds to the paint properly. Without this step the ceramic coating may not adhere properly and will not have the correct effectiveness that it should.
