Why Choose Paint Correction for a Flawless Paintwork Finish?
Paint correction is essential if you want your vehicle to look its absolute best. Over time, your car’s paint naturally accumulates swirl marks, light scratches, oxidation, water spots, and other imperfections caused by washing, weather, and daily driving. These defects diminish the clarity and gloss of the paint, making even a newer car look tired or poorly maintained.
Professional paint correction safely removes these imperfections by carefully levelling the top layer of clear coat. This restores depth, clarity, and sharp reflections—bringing back that “better than showroom” finish. The result is a dramatically enhanced shine that standard polishing products simply cannot achieve.
Choosing paint correction not only improves your car’s appearance today, but also prepares the surface for long-term protection such as ceramic coatings or paint protection film. By starting with a flawless finish, these protective layers bond more effectively and deliver longer-lasting results.
If you want your vehicle to stand out with a rich, glossy, and truly flawless paintwork finish, paint correction is the foundation that makes it possible.
Restore The True Colour
Fine scratches, wash marring, and surface imperfections all take away from the true depth and vibrancy of your car’s paintwork. Once these defects are safely removed, the transformation is instantly noticeable — revealing a richer colour, sharper reflections, and a stunningly glossy finish you may not have realised your car was capable of.
Remove Swirls and Scratches
Swirl marks and scratches are unsightly and can significantly dull the finish of your paintwork. Over time, they accumulate, causing the colour to fade and appear greyed. Fortunately, through professional paint correction, we can safely remove these imperfections and restore your car’s vibrant, flawless finish.
Paint Texture - Reflections
‘Orange peel’ refers to the uneven texture of paint, with tiny peaks and valleys that resemble the surface of an orange. Through professional machine polishing, these high points are carefully leveled, creating a smoother, flatter surface that produces a deep, mirror-like reflection.

What Are The Types Of Paint Correction ?
New Car - Single Stage Paint Correction
If your car is new or already in average condition, this is the perfect choice. Single stage polishing will gently remove light scratches, swirl marks, and minor imperfections that may have appeared during delivery or the first few washes, restoring a flawless, showroom-quality finish.
Two Stage Paint Correction
A step up from single-stage polishing, this method tackles deeper imperfections that require extra attention. It begins with a cutting pass to remove defects, followed by a refining stage to enhance clarity, depth, and achieve a flawless, vibrant finish.
Multi Stage Paint Correction
For ultimate perfection, multiple machine polishing passes are performed until the paint achieves a flawless finish. This service is perfect for those seeking the highest level of paintwork enhancement, finished and protected with a premium ceramic coating, included with every detailing package.

How Is A Ceramic Coating Applied ?
Before applying a ceramic coating, our priority is to ensure your car’s paint is in the best possible condition. This is why we always perform a thorough polishing process prior to coating application. Polishing not only removes swirls, scratches, and other imperfections but also cleanses the surface, preparing the paint to bond effectively with the ceramic coating.
Once your paintwork has been polished to perfection, we use Panel Wipe, a blend of pure alcohols and solvents, to remove any remaining polish residues. This step is crucial as it maximizes the chemical bond between the ceramic coating and your car’s painted panels, ensuring long-lasting protection.
The coating is then carefully applied using a pipette to place the liquid onto the applicator pad. We apply it generously in a precise crosshatch pattern, guaranteeing even coverage across the entire surface. This meticulous process ensures that every panel receives the full protective and aesthetic benefits of the ceramic coating, leaving your car with a flawless, glossy finish that is durable, hydrophobic, and easy to maintain.
Paint Correction FAQs - Procar Detailing
Have questions about getting your car's paint looking its best? Procar Detailing has the answers! We've put together this list of frequently asked questions about our professional paint correction services in Denmead, Hampshire.
What exactly is paint correction?
A: Paint correction, at Procar Detailing, is the meticulous process of restoring your vehicle's paintwork by removing surface imperfections. This typically includes swirl marks, light scratches, oxidation, water spots, and holograms. It's a multi-stage polishing process that carefully levels the clear coat to reveal a smooth, defect-free, and highly reflective finish, bringing back your car's original luster and depth.
How is paint correction different from waxing or polishing?
A: While waxing and polishing can add shine, they typically only fill in or temporarily mask imperfections. Paint correction, offered by Procar Detailing, is a permanent solution that removes the defects by taking off a microscopic layer of your car's clear coat. It's a much more intensive and skilled process than a simple wax or over-the-counter polish, providing lasting results.
What kind of imperfections can paint correction fix?
A: Procar Detailing's paint correction services are highly effective at removing a wide range of common paint defects, including:
-
Swirl marks: Often caused by improper washing techniques or automatic car washes.
-
Light scratches: From minor abrasions, keying, or road debris.
-
Oxidation: Faded, dull paint due to sun exposure.
-
Water spots: Mineral deposits left by hard water.
-
Holograms/Buffer trails: Imperfections left by inexperienced machine polishing.
-
Bird etching/bug splatter stains: If not too deeply embedded.
How long does paint correction take at Procar Detailing?
A: The duration of paint correction depends on several factors: the size of the vehicle, the severity of the paint defects, and the desired level of correction (e.g., single-stage, two-stage, or multi-stage). A typical paint correction can take anywhere from one to three days for a full restoration at Procar Detailing, ensuring every detail is perfect.
Will paint correction remove all scratches?
A: Paint correction at Procar Detailing can remove a very high percentage of surface scratches. However, if a scratch has gone through the clear coat and into the base coat (colour layer) or even the primer/metal, it's considered a "deep scratch" and may require touch-up paint or re-spraying to fully resolve. We always assess your vehicle thoroughly to set realistic expectations.
Is paint correction safe for my car's paint?
A: Yes, when performed by experienced professionals like those at Procar Detailing, paint correction is completely safe. We use precision tools to measure paint thickness and employ advanced techniques to remove only the minimum amount of clear coat necessary to achieve a flawless finish, preserving your vehicle's integrity.
Do I need to protect my paint after correction?
A: Absolutely! After investing in paint correction from Procar Detailing, we highly recommend applying a high-quality paint sealant or, even better, a ceramic coating. This will protect your newly corrected paint from environmental contaminants, UV damage, and future minor scratches, making maintenance easier and extending the life of the flawless finish. We offer various protection options.
How much does paint correction cost at Procar Detailing?
A: The cost of paint correction varies depending on the size of your vehicle, the condition of the paint, and the level of correction required. We offer tailored solutions to meet your needs and budget. Please contact Procar Detailing today for a personalized quote after a thorough assessment of your vehicle's paintwork.
How often should I get paint correction?
A: With proper maintenance and protection (like a ceramic coating), the results of paint correction from Procar Detailing can last for several years. You generally won't need to have a full paint correction again for a long time. However, regular maintenance washes and occasional light polishing can keep your paint looking its best.
