Not every car needs more cleaning.

Some need their finish restored.

Yourpaintmaynotneedrepainting.Itmayneedcorrecting.

Fine scratches, wash marks and haze scatter light across the clear coat. Proper correction refines that surface so the colour reads deeper, reflections look sharper and the finish regains its gloss.

  • Reduce visible swirl marks and wash marring
  • Restore clarity, depth and gloss
  • Refine tired or hazy clear coat
  • Prepare the finish for long-term protection

A few common questions about paint correction and mobile detailing before you request an assessment.

Paint correction is machine polishing carried out to reduce visible paint defects such as swirls, haze and light scratches while restoring clarity and gloss. The exact approach depends on the condition and thickness of the paint.

No. Some vehicles only need a lighter enhancement while others need more involved correction. We assess the paint first and recommend the level of work that makes sense for the finish and the result you want.

Yes. Protection is a natural next step after polishing because the surface has already been properly prepared. We can discuss suitable protection options as part of the assessment.

Yes. The Shinelab also offers exterior detailing, interior detailing, paint enhancement and headlight restoration. Paint correction is simply the specialist service we lead with.
