Paint correction, ceramic coating and detailing

For cars, exotics and boats in South Florida, by appointment. Every job starts with an inspection and a paint-depth reading, and you get a written quote before we touch the car.

Car detailing

Daily drivers, family SUVs and the car you only take out on Sundays get the same process. What changes is how far we go.

01

Hand wash and decontamination

A pH-neutral hand wash, wheels and tires cleaned separately, then an iron remover and clay to lift the fallout and grit that washing leaves bonded to the paint.

02

Interior

Cleaned by hand, with the right product for each material.

  • Carpets and fabric seats shampooed and extracted
  • Leather cleaned and conditioned
  • Vents, seams, door jambs and glass
03

Paint correction

Swirls, wash marring and light scratches leveled out by machine polishing, after a paint-depth reading on each panel. How correction works

04

Ceramic coating

A thin, hard layer bonded to the clear coat after correction. Water and dirt let go more easily, and light wash marks land in the coating instead of the paint.

05

Paint protection film

Clear urethane film on the parts that take the hits: front bumper, hood, mirrors, rocker panels. The protection for rock chips, which no coating stops.

06

Wheels and engine bay

Brake dust removed from the barrels, not just the faces, tires dressed, and the engine bay cleaned with care around electrics.

Under the inspection light

Swirl marks hide in daylight and show up under a single bright light. Drag the light across the hood: the left side is paint before correction, the right side after.

High-end and exotic

Matte paint, wraps and carbon fiber can be ruined by the wrong product. We use matte-safe products and never polish a matte finish.

Matte and satin finishes

Matte paint and wraps can't be polished or waxed: it would leave shiny patches. They're washed and protected with products made for matte.

—

Film before the first chip

On a new car, paint protection film on the front end, or the whole body, goes on before the paint picks up chips.

Readings on record

We note the paint reading on every panel before and after correction, so you know what's left.

How a detail works

  1. Send us the car

    Use the request form: what it is, how it's used, what bothers you about it, and a few photos.

  2. Inspection

    We look at it in good light, take paint readings, and test a small area before deciding how far correction should go.

  3. A written plan

    What we'll do and why, what it costs and how long it takes. You agree to it before we start.

  4. The detail and the handover

    We walk you round the car, show you the readings, and explain how to wash it so the result lasts.

Questions

Do I need paint correction before a ceramic coating?

Usually, yes. A coating is clear and locks in whatever is underneath it, swirls included, so the paint should look the way you want it before it goes on.

Ceramic coating or paint protection film?

They do different jobs. A coating is a very thin hard layer that keeps paint easier to clean and takes light wash marks. Film is many times thicker and is what stops rock chips. Many cars get film on the front and a coating everywhere else.

Can every scratch be polished out?

No. Polishing levels the clear coat, so it removes marks that sit in the clear. A scratch through to the color or primer needs paint. A good test: if your fingernail catches in it, polishing alone probably won't remove it.

Do you detail boats as well as cars?

Yes. Boats get a different process for gelcoat: washing, stain removal, compounding and polishing, then wax. How we restore gelcoat.
