Paint Correction Myths - Solved by the Experts at Dayton Detailing

Myth 1: Waxing is enough to fix paint imperfections

While a good wax job can make your vehicle look shiny and new, it does not and WILL NOT actually correct the paint. Waxing provides a temporary layer of coverage over the paint, but it does absolutely nothing to remove scratches, swirl marks, or any evident paint oxidation. Paint correction involves carefully removing a minuscule layer of clear coat with abrasion pads and cutting compounds to eliminate these imperfections and restore the paint to its original glory.

Myth 2: All levels of paint correction do the same work

Not all paint correction services are the same because not all vehicles need the same level of work. Hazards are unpredictable, and the results from them vary tremendously. The packages here at Dayton Detailing vary based on the condition of your vehicle. Our expertise comes with analyzing the paintwork, determining the exact tools that need to be used, and even the finish work that gives you a great gloss.

Myth 3: Corrected paintwork stays perfect

Dayton Detailing's professional paint correction services will always deliver remarkable results to your ride, but you have to remember that comes from various investments in protection. This service will NOT permanently fix your finish without any additional effort, as you know that your vehicle's exterior will still be exposed to the Dayton elements. The only way to sustain paint correction results is to get regular maintenance detailing with our team and to consider a PPF or even a ceramic coating for more enhancement.

Myth 4: Paint correction is a fix-all solution for damaged vehicles

This is another misconception, as there are some types of damage that it cannot fix. For example, if a scratch has penetrated through the clear coat and has actually cut through the paint itself, paint correction alone will not be useful in repairing it. We at Dayton Detailing actually work with moderate to mildly defective rides, old and new!

Want to Know More About the Steps Involved in Our Paint Correction Process?

Inspection of Your Vehicle

The inspection process is meticulous and often involves the use of specialized lighting to accurately assess the condition of the vehicle's paintwork. This comprehensive examination allows the technician to identify and record any scratches, swirl marks, bird etchings, and other defects in the paint. By understanding the extent and nature of the damage, we can formulate a precise plan of action for the future stages of the car paint correction process.

Correcting the Clear Coat

The compounding process is a critical step in paint correction, where a specialized abrasive compound is applied to the vehicle's surface. This process essentially involves a machine polisher that carefully works the compound into the paint to remove defects. The compound acts like a very fine sandpaper, grinding down the top layer of damaged clear coat, which contains the scratches or swirl marks. However, it should be performed carefully and skillfully as improper handling can potentially inflict more harm than good to the car's paintwork

The Finishing Touches of the Job

The finishing touches of a paint correction service truly bring out the luster and shine in a vehicle's paintwork. After the meticulous process of compounding and polishing, the vehicle is often treated with a layer of high-quality sealant. This not only enhances the visual appeal, gloss, and depth of the paint but also forms a protective barrier against environmental elements such as UV rays, rain, and road grime.
