Elite Auto Spa's Multi-Stage Paint Correction Process

The number 1 is in a black circle on a white background.

Step 1: Paint Decontamination

We start by thoroughly washing the vehicle’s exterior to eliminate surface contaminants like tar, tree sap, and industrial fallout. These various particles cling to the paint’s surface and end up causing issues during the correction process if not properly removed. This initial step is vital to ensuring that the subsequent paint correction stages are smooth and effective.

The number two is in a black circle on a white background.

Step 2: Clay Bar Treatment

After decontamination, we use a clay bar treatment to address any embedded particles that regular washing might have missed. The clay bar glides over the surface, picking up stubborn contaminants to leave the paint exceptionally clean. This process ensures that the polishing phase is performed on a smooth, uncontaminated surface for optimal results.

The number three is in a black circle on a white background.

Step 3: Wheel Cleaning

In addition to paint care, we extend our attention to your vehicle’s wheels as part of our comprehensive service. We thoroughly clean the wheels, removing dirt and grime buildup that may detract from your vehicle's overall appearance. This attention to detail ensures that every aspect of your vehicle looks pristine.

Step 4: Three-Step Polishing Process

The heart of our Multi-Stage paint correction service is a three-step process involving cutting, polishing, and jeweling. Each stage is carefully performed to gradually remove defects, refine the paint surface, and achieve a high level of gloss. This process can take up to 10 hours total, during which we aim to remove between 80% and 95% of imperfections depending on the condition of the vehicle’s paint.

Paint Correction FAQs and Answers

  • Can paint correction make my vehicle look newer?

    Yes, paint correction can significantly improve the appearance of your vehicle, making it look much newer. By removing defects from your clear coat, such as swirl marks, scratches, and surface oxidation, the surface of the paint on your vehicle is brought back to a smooth, reflective finish. Paint correction enhances your vehicle's appearance, giving it a fresh, glossy look that closely resembles a new paint job.

  • How do I know which paint correction service is right for my vehicle?

    The right paint correction service depends on the condition of your vehicle's paint. If your vehicle has light imperfections, such as surface-level swirl marks, our Quick Polish service is a great option. For more moderate defects, like minor scratches and oxidation, the Single Stage paint correction will provide more thorough results. If your vehicle has deeper imperfections or requires more intensive care, the Multi-Stage paint correction is ideal, targeting up to 95% of surface defects. Our experts can evaluate your vehicle and recommend the best service for your needs.

  • How do I preserve my freshly corrected paint?

    After paint correction, it is important to take steps to preserve the newly polished surface. One of the best ways to do this is by applying either a paint protection film or a ceramic coating. Additionally, regular maintenance such as hand washing using the two-bucket method and avoiding automatic car washes will help keep your vehicle's paint in top condition. At Elite Auto Spa, we recommend following a professional care regimen and considering periodic touch-up services to maintain your vehicle's pristine appearance.
