WHAT IS AUTO
PAINT PROTECTION?
An auto paint correction is a careful process aimed at restoring a car’s paint to its original beauty. It removes imperfections like scratches, stains, and paint problems that can affect the look of your vehicle's exterior. Using skillful techniques and attention to detail, paint correction also addresses issues with the bodywork and paint contamination, resulting in a flawless, showroom-ready finish.
In Chicago, harsh weather can take a toll on your car’s paint, making proper protection essential. That’s why we apply a long-lasting sealant to protect your paint for 3 to 6 months. If you want even more shine and durability, our Ceramic Coating Services are the perfect choice.
The auto paint correction process is all about reviving your vehicle’s appearance, ensuring it radiates brilliance and looks its best on the road. Trust us to help your car shine like new with our expert paint correction services in Chicago.

AUTO PAINT CORRECTION IN CHICAGO FAQs
Do you offer ceramic coatings?
We sure do! This is a fantastic option to protect your paint from the weather. You can read more about our Ceramic Coatings here. You can also stay with the more traditional wax or sealant at no additional price.
How long do the results lasts?
After the paint is corrected, the next phase is maintenance. It’s just like training your pet to sit on command. You don’t just teach them once and think they’ll know it forever.
You have to continually train and repeat the commands. It’s the same with paint correction. You have to properly (and routinely) wash and dry your vehicle moving forward to maintain the swirl-free finish of your paint. If not, you’re back to square one.
What tools and products do you use?
A wide arrange of machines, pads, polishes, compounds, cleaners, towels, and lights will be used to work on your car. Every car will be different and will yield different methods and tools.
What's the difference between wax and paint correction?
A wax does not remove any swirls or scratches from your paint. It only hides the very light swirls and can be completed in a few hours. Paint correction actually removes the swirls in your paint. This is what makes the paint shine like crazy. It also takes a substantial amount of time and energy to complete. Usually one or two full days (depending on size, condition, and desired results..)
