CM3 Detailing Studio & Ceramic Coating - Our Paint Correction Process

Exterior Surface Detailing

We do not want any easily removed environmental or human made contamination to be covering up what should be remedied about your paintwork. The starting point of our paint correction service here at CM3 Detailing Studio & Ceramic Coating is ALWAYS a professional exterior detailing, which involves a two-bucket hand wash and claying to completely rid your exterior of any residual messes.

Inspecting All Paint Defects

Now that all of your vehicle’s contamination has been removed, our paint correction team can really evaluate the true condition of your car, truck, or SUV’s finish. We have extensive experience in what defects, discrepancies, and paint stains require what type of attention to detail during the cutting process and likewise, how much buffing, polishing, or jeweling a certain finish may require.

Cutting Clear Coat with Compounds

It may sound aggressive, but our cutting process here at CM3 Detailing Studio & Ceramic Coating only uses enough abrasion to adequately level any surface defects. By using industry-grade compounds and light abrasion, your vehicle’s finish will be more smooth and even than ever before, allowing us to then move to our final stages where we amplify gloss and increase color richness.

Buffing, Polishing, and Jeweling Processes

While the buffing, polishing, and jeweling stages involved in our unique auto paint correction service may provide the finishing touches to your ride, they can also help remedy any remaining light defects or discrepancies in the process. As these steps create a high-level clarity and shine on your paint, you will want to consider protecting your ride thereafter with a PPF or ceramic coating.

Auto Paint Correction Service Myths and Answers

Myth 1: If you own a new vehicle, paint correction is irrelevant

This is not true and quite frankly, it has never been true. When a new car, truck, or SUV sits on a dealership lot, it has already been exposed to a variety of dangers out in the world. From potential stains caused by Elgin, Illinois precipitation to light scrapes from passersby in the lot, every one of these issues will be eliminated with light paint correction.

Myth 2: You do not need to detail your vehicle before paint correction

Without having your ride detailed by our professional exterior auto detailers, our paint correction team could never fully identify what is a defect and what might merely be just a cloud of environmental grime. After a full two-bucket hand wash and clay bar decontamination process, your automobile is completely clear, revealing only surface discrepancies that need correcting.

Myth 3: Following paint correction, a ceramic coating is unnecessary

A ceramic coating will not only protect your car, truck, or SUV from future corrosion or surface stains, it will actually increase the gloss that we have brought to its paintwork. Ceramic coatings and even our paint protection films act as both a sacrificial layer and a big magnifying glass, showcasing your paint’s detail, depth, and color extremely well!
