About Paint Correction

Paint correction is the controlled removal of a microscopic layer of clear coat to level surface defects. Apollo Detailing offers single-stage and multi-stage correction in Marlborough, MA, paired with full decontamination and finished with a sealant or ceramic coating.

Best for: Daily drivers with swirl marks, used vehicles, lease-return prep, and anyone planning to add a ceramic coating.

Our Process

Step 1

Paint reading

We measure clear-coat thickness and test a panel to choose the right combo.

Step 2

Wash + decontaminate

Foam bath, iron remover, clay-bar — a clean canvas before polishing.

Step 3

Cut

Compounding stage removes deeper defects without burning paint.

Step 4

Polish

Refining stage brings back true gloss and removes any compound haze.

Step 5

Protect

Finished with a paint sealant or prepped for ceramic coating.

FAQs — Paint Correction

Will paint correction remove every scratch?

Light to moderate scratches yes. Deep scratches that go past the clear coat can't be polished out safely.

How long does it take?

Single-stage typically takes a full day; multi-stage correction can run 1–2 days depending on vehicle size.

Should I get a coating afterwards?

Strongly recommended. Correcting paint and not protecting it means the swirls return faster.
