What is Paint Correction?
Paint correction is a professional machine polishing process that removes defects from the vehicle’s clear coat rather than masking them.
This includes the safe removal of:
- Swirl marks
- Wash marring
- Light scratches
- Oxidation
- Haze and dullness
Unlike quick polish” or valeting services, paint correction physically refines the paint surface to restore a deep, crisp finish.
Alex recently carried out a multiple stage paint correction and ceramic coating on my Porsche. The paint was looking tired with lots of scratches so I thought it needed a re-spray! Alex advised a thorough machine polish instead and the finish now looks like new again! What a great service. I highly recommended!

When is Paint Correction most effective?
Below are some key uses for paint correction. Our Paint Correction service Completed in our GYEON certified Dorset-based, high-end workshop by professional machine polishers.

Paint correction is a critical step before applying a ceramic coating – this stops the following:
- Locking in swirl marks
- Trapping scratches beneath the coating
- Reducing overall gloss and finish quality
New Car Paint Correction & Dealer Defect Removal
Even brand-new vehicles often require paint correction. Common issues include:
- Dealer wash swirls
