Exclusive guide to paint correction and its importance in detailing!

Before we start talking about paint correction, you must know what it is actually. To restore the paintwork and bring back the original shine of your car, experienced detailers employ certain means to remove swirl marks, scratches, buffer trails, etc. These imperfections spoil the car paint and prevent a clear reflection. So, paint correction is basically the method of restoration of the painted surface of an automobile.

 

How do professional detailers like us do it?

At first you must give the vehicle a detailed wash to clean out all the contaminants that collect on the surface. The paintwork is thoroughly washed and cleaned and only after the dirt particles are removed that a specialised clay bar can be applied. This clay coating ensures complete removal of the accumulate debris.

The elimination of these pollutants is mandatory before you start with the paint protection procedure. This is because once they get stuck on the pad of the polishing machine, they will be transferred onto the car surface again and the aimed purpose will be ruined. Claying the paintwork gives a clear assessment of the condition of the surface.

Different kinds of polish are used to clear out the fine particles as well as the evidently visible ones. During this prolonged process, a paint depth gauge is often employed by top-level detailers.

The paint depth gauge measures the thickness of the paint on the metal panel and is used during and after the process to give an exact calculation of how much material has been removed. It is mainly to stop excess removal, which may fade out the painted surface or make a mark on it, to cause severe damage to your car. Authorised paint detailing techniques also include the use of specialised halogen or LED lamps to produce a similar glow as that of sunlight, which allows an effective checking of the condition of the paint coating as well as the removal of the fine scratches and swirl marks.

 

Removal of deep scratches

The ridding of very deep scratches always poses a risk of removing excess paint during the correction procedure. To avoid this, the severe imperfections are reduced to size. You can use machine polisher or polish products that round off the edges of the irritating scratch marks and make them appear much less distinct under direct light.

The panels are then wiped down with an isopropyl alcohol to remove extra residual oils, left behind from the polish. Thus, the actual finish of the car comes to light and also reveals any missed area. Once the paint correction is complete, a glossy painted surface will uncover and produce a dazzling reflection.

Now that you know that these scratches and swirl marks are the main scatterers of light rays, you can understand how important it is to remove them. Along with other exterior detailing measures, paint correction is an essential step to protect your car’s painted surface from cracking up or fading away. A clean and protected surface naturally shines and makes the car’s visual appeal all the more spectacular.
