Used VOLKSWAGENPaint Correction & Polish
Swirl marks, scratches and dull, oxidised paint corrected by hand and machine restoring true gloss and depth to your vehicle's finish.
Why Correct Instead of Just Wax?
Everyday washing, weather and general use leave behind fine swirl marks, light scratches and a build-up of oxidation that a wax or quick polish simply sits on top of rather than removes.
Paint correction physically levels the clear coat to remove these imperfections, revealing the true colour and depth underneath then protects it so it stays that way.
- Removes swirl marks, scratches and holograms
- Corrects oxidation and faded, dull paint
- Multi-stage machine polishing for a mirror finish
- Optional ceramic coating for long-term protection

Paint Correction FAQs
How long does paint correction take?
▾
A single-stage polish can be done in a few hours, while a full multi-stage correction on a heavily marked vehicle can take 1-2 days to complete properly.
Will it remove all scratches?
▾
Most swirl marks and light-to-moderate scratches can be removed. Deeper scratches that have gone through the clear coat may be reduced but not fully removed, and we'll advise honestly during assessment.
Is paint correction safe for my car's paint?
▾
Yes, when done correctly. We measure paint depth before starting to make sure there's enough clear coat to safely correct without risking damage.
How often should I get it done?
▾
A full correction typically isn't needed more than once every couple of years if followed by regular maintenance washes and a protective coating or sealant.
