Masters in the Craft of Paint Correction
Remember how great your car looked when you first saw it on the showroom floor? While your vehicle still shines, that shine means little without the depth and clarity gained from proper machine polishing by an expert paint correction specialist like DetailingPRO in Dublin. Paint correction and restoration, including swirl removal, is a labor-intensive process that utilizes advanced nano-technology abrasives (compounds and polishes). The art of safe buffing techniques sets true professional detailers apart from the rest, and this skill is mastered by only a few. We often see customers who have had subpar corrections performed at other shops. DetailingPRO is known for delivering perfection, which is why you can trust us with your paint correction needs.

Attention to detail
Our paint correction and restoration specialists in Dublin possess a deep understanding of the science behind their work. We start by using a digital paint depth gauge to measure the thickness of each panel’s clear coat. This step is essential to ensure that there is enough clear coat remaining for polishing. The paint correction process involves delicately removing a thin, microscopic layer of paint to level out scratches and imperfections.
Every vehicle’s paint has unique characteristics that necessitate a customized approach to paint correction for each job. We assess the optimal combination of compounds and polishes required to reach our desired level of perfection. Once this is determined, we tape off all the exterior trim to avoid any damage or staining from the compounds and polishes.
At our shop in Dublin, paint correction or restoration varies from one car to another. Some vehicles may require over 30 hours to complete the process. The time needed depends on several factors, including paint hardness, clear-coat thickness, color, and the extent of imperfections.
WHAT IS PAINT CORRECTION?
Paint correction is the process of eliminating imperfections from a vehicle’s clear coat using machine buffers and polishers, combined with a special blend of compounds and polishes. Our paint correction experts in Dublin have perfected these techniques and have turned the process into a science.
WHERE DO THESE IMPERFECTIONS COME FROM?
It’s hard to narrow down the reason for each vehicle. But, here are a few possible reasons:
- Improper hand wash methods
- Automatic car washes
- “Car Dusters” or rags
- Bird droppings
- Sprinklers or hard water
- Bug guts
- Acid rain
