Paint Correction
McKinney, TX
Multi-stage machine polishing that removes swirl marks, scratches, and oxidation — restoring your paint to a mirror-like finish that reflects light perfectly.
What Is Paint Correction?
Paint correction is the process of permanently removing surface imperfections from your vehicle's clear coat through machine polishing. Unlike "scratch removers" or "swirl mark fillers" that temporarily mask defects, paint correction physically levels the clear coat surface to eliminate imperfections.
Every vehicle on the road has some level of paint damage — from automatic car washes, improper hand washing, environmental contaminants, or simply age. These imperfections scatter light instead of reflecting it evenly, which is why damaged paint looks dull and hazy compared to a freshly corrected finish.
At AquaLux, Landon uses professional-grade dual-action and rotary polishers with carefully selected compound and polish combinations. Paint depth is measured before, during, and after correction to ensure safe material removal while achieving maximum defect removal.
