Swirl Mark Removal
Those spider-web scratches from automatic car washes ruin your gloss. We gently level your clear coat to permanently remove them, not just fill them in with temporary oils.
1
Oxidation & Fading Repair
Is your paint looking chalky or dull? We remove the dead, oxidized layer of clear coat to reveal the deep, vibrant color hidden underneath. Perfect for older vehicles.
1
Deep Scratch Repair
Heavier scratches (like fingernail marks around door handles) require precision. We safely round off the edges of deeper defects to make them virtually invisible without compromising your paint.
1
Lock In The Shine
Once your paint is corrected, it's naked. We seal that perfection with a professional ceramic coating or sealant to prevent future fading and make washing effortless.

Our Multi-Stage Paint Correction Process

Step 1: Decontamination
Before we touch a polisher, we strip the paint. We use iron removers and clay bars to extract embedded brake dust and road tar, ensuring the surface is surgically clean.
Step 2: The Correction Phase
We use a dual-action polisher and microfiber cutting pads to physically level the clear coat. This removes the deep scratches and oxidation that standard detailing can't touch.
Step 3: The Jeweling Polish
This is where the depth comes from. We switch to a soft foam pad and ultra-fine polish to refine the finish, eliminating any micro-haze and creating that wet, mirror-like reflection.

Benefits of Restoring Your Paint vs. Repainting

Don’t Repaint It. Restore It.

Many drivers in Kankakee assume that scratches mean they need a new paint job. In reality, we can restore your original factory paint for a fraction of the cost—saving you thousands.

  • Cost Effective:

    A quality repaint costs $5,000+. Our correction packages restore your finish for 80% less.

  • Maintain Resale Value:

    Original factory paint is always worth more at trade-in than a repainted vehicle. Keep your car original.

  • Faster Turnaround:

    Body shops keep your car for weeks. We complete most corrections in just 24-48 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. We use electronic paint depth gauges to measure your clear coat before we start. We only remove a microscopic amount (typically less than 1-3 microns) to level the defects, ensuring your paint remains healthy and thick enough for future polishing.

No. Unlike cheap “glazes” used by dealerships that just fill in scratches with oil, our process permanently removes the defects from the clear coat. Unless you re-scratch the car with improper washing, the swirl marks are gone for good.

Highly Recommended. Once we correct your paint, it is “naked” and perfectly clean. This is the absolute best time to apply a Ceramic Coating to lock in that perfection and prevent new swirl marks from forming.

No. Paint correction only works on the clear coat layer. If you can catch your fingernail deep in the scratch (or see white primer/metal), it likely requires touch-up paint or a body shop. We can, however, round off the edges to make it much less noticeable.
