WHAT IS A PAINT CORRECTION? - CHICAGO'S TRUSTED SOLUTION

Paint correction in Chicago is a process that removes scratches, swirl marks, oxidation, and water spots from your car’s paint, making it look brand new. Over time, sun damage, road debris, and automatic car washes can cause your car’s paint to lose its shine. Paint correction restores the glossy finish by carefully polishing the surface and removing imperfections.
Our professional paint correction service removes deep scratches, scuffs, and faded spots, helping your car look like it just came from the dealership. This process is perfect before applying ceramic coating, which adds a protective layer to keep your paint looking flawless for years.
