Paint Correction FAQs
How much does paint correction cost in Phoenix?
Multi-stage paint correction typically runs $700–$1,200, while show-level correction starts around $1,500. Pricing depends on paint condition, vehicle size and defect severity.
How long does paint correction take?
Multi-stage paint correction usually takes 1–3 days. Show-level correction can take 3–5 days depending on paint condition.
Will paint correction remove all scratches?
Anything you can catch a fingernail in is too deep for polishing — those need touch-up or repaint. Swirls, water spots, buffer trails and light scratches almost always come out.
Do I need paint correction before ceramic coating?
Absolutely. Ceramic coating locks in the paint condition underneath. Skipping correction means sealing swirls and defects in for years.
Is paint correction safe for my clear coat?
In trained hands, yes. We measure paint thickness before starting and use the least-aggressive pad and compound combination that gets the job done.
