Level One Paint Correction

Swirls out.Gloss back.

This is a real 50/50 from one of our trucks. Drag across it. One side is the panel as it came in, the other is after a single stage of correction, before the ceramic Si02 sealant goes on to lock it in.

1What are we detailing?
2Choose your package
3Anything extra?

Ceramic protection

Protection thatoutlasts the weather.

Sun, humidity, road film and lovebug season are hard on paint down here. Ceramic protection gives it a slick, glossy layer that water beads off, so it stays cleaner for longer and washes up faster.

Deluxe Decon & Protection 4 to 6 months

Included with every exterior package.

Ceramic Si02 sealant Up to 8 months

Goes on after paint correction to lock the gloss in.

Ceramic coating Years

Our longest lasting protection, quoted per vehicle.

01 · DECON

Paint decontamination

Embedded fallout and grime lifted off the paint so the surface is smooth to the touch before anything is applied.

02 · CORRECT

Level One correction

One machine stage that removes up to 75% of swirls, hazing and scratches, so the protection seals in gloss, not damage.

03 · PROTECT

Ceramic layer

A hydrophobic, UV resistant layer that keeps the shine for months, or years with a full coating.

How we work

Six steps.Zero shortcuts.

The same process on a 200,000 mile work truck as on a brand new luxury SUV. Scroll through it.

White Ford F-150 in for an assessment01

Assessment

We walk around the vehicle with you, point out what we see in the paint and the interior, and recommend the package that fits. Nothing starts until you agree.

SUV covered in snow foam02

Wash & decon

A safe foam wash, then a full decontamination to pull out the grime a normal wash leaves behind.

Machine polisher correcting a black hood03

Correct

Machine polishing takes out swirls, micro scratches and hazing so the paint looks smooth and deep again.

Water beading on a ceramic protected surface04

Protect

A ceramic Si02 sealant or full coating locks in the gloss and keeps water, UV and grime off the paint.

Clean black and orange GMC interior05

Interior reset

Pressurized air, deep vacuum, steam and carpet shampoo. Every crack, cup holder and crevice, scrubbed and conditioned.

Black Ford Super Duty after a full detail06

Final walk-around

We check every panel with you before you go, so you drive away in a ride you're proud of.

    What sets us apart

    The crosshatchmethod.

    Most detailers wipe wax on in one direction and call it done. One pass leaves thin lines and missed spots you can't see until the shine fades early. We put every paste wax and sealant on twice: one pass side to side, then a second pass top to bottom. The passes cross, fill each other's gaps and build a thicker, even layer, which is then buffed off by hand.

    • Thicker, even protection with no thin spots
    • Lasts longer between details
    • A deeper, wetter looking shine
