The Art of Paint Correction for Midtown, Houston Cars

Need someone to fix a scratch on your car's paint in Midtown, Houston? Paint correction for cars, trucks, and boats involves the careful removal of surface scratches and imperfections from autobody paintwork and returning it to as close to “like new” condition as possible. The process requires painstakingly the careful use of mild abrasives and machine polishers and other products.

How will you know when your car's paintwork has been properly repaired? A fully corrected paint job will feature only clear reflections and no swirl marks or scratches when viewed in direct sunlight.

 

Our Mobile Paint Correction Process for Midtown, Houston Vehicles

Some scratches in the paint of vehicles can be fixed simply by covering them up with filler and matching paint colors. However, most corrective procedures to repair scratches in the paint of a car in Midtown, Houston are much more labor-intensive.

• A small amount of the topcoat (clear coat or paint) is carefully removed with a mild abrasive
• The finish is removed down to the depth of the scratch if possible, but without removing too much paint
• The affected area is then cleaned and thoroughly dried to remove any loose paint chips or dirt
• The surface is then polished to a smooth finish
• The surface is cleaned again, with alcohol to remove any oils left behind from the polishing
• What's left is a clean sheen. We challenge you to find the original blemish!

 

Midtown, Houston Auto Paint Correction is a Specialized Process

Paint correction and repair services are usually not for the novice auto detailer in Midtown, Houston. Minor paint correction is a very labor-intensive process and takes quite a bit of time to do correctly. Amateurs should only attempt to correct the paintwork on their cars or trucks if they have the confidence and/or experience to carry it out safely or are not overly concerned with the result. The act of adding a filler to a scratch often will not last and will most likely fall out. For best results, true paint correction is only achieved by having a professional remove the blemish completely and then polish the surface.
