PAINT CORRECTION GOLD COAST – NEW CARS & USED VEHICLES
EVEN NEW CARS NEED CORRECTION
Think showroom-fresh vehicles have perfect paint? Before reaching you, new cars are moved, washed, and handled countless times, picking up swirls and imperfections that go unnoticed until viewed under proper lighting.
5-15 HOURS OF METICULOUS WORK
Our paint correction process transforms your car’s finish through methodical steps. This intensive detailing service can take anywhere from 5 to 15 hours, delivering stunning results that enhance both visual appeal and resale value.
PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT
With proper maintenance, you’ll preserve that showroom-worthy finish for years. However, improper washing can reintroduce swirls in just a few washes. That’s why we guide clients on proper care techniques to protect their investment.
Common issues we address: Swirl marks, transport scratches, dealership imperfections, environmental damage
MAXIMIZE YOUR INVESTMENT
Pair your paint correction with our ceramic coating service to lock in that flawless finish for 3-7 years. Protect your freshly corrected paint from UV damage, swirls, and environmental contaminants.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does paint correction cost on the Gold Coast?
+
Paint correction pricing varies based on vehicle size and paint condition. Small cars start from $660-1100, medium vehicles from $770-1200, and large vehicles from $880-1300. Final pricing depends on the level of correction needed after our vehicle inspection.
How long does the cut and polish process take?
+
Paint correction typically takes 5-15 hours depending on your vehicle’s paint condition. Single-stage polishing for minor imperfections takes 5-8 hours, while multi-stage correction for more challenging cases takes 10-15 hours. We’ll provide an accurate timeframe after inspecting your vehicle.
Will paint correction remove all scratches from my car?
+
Paint correction can remove 65-90% of paint defects including swirls, light scratches, and surface imperfections. However, deeper scratches that have penetrated through the clear coat may not be fully removable. We’ll assess your paint thickness during inspection to determine what’s achievable while maintaining paint integrity.
What’s the difference between single-stage and multi-stage paint correction?
+
Single-stage polishing removes minor imperfections like light swirls and surface marring in one polishing step. Multi-stage correction involves multiple polishing steps with different compounds and pads to tackle more severe defects, achieving higher defect removal rates and superior gloss. Your vehicle’s condition determines which approach is best.
How often should I get paint correction done?
+
Paint correction is not a regular maintenance service—it’s typically done once every few years or when paint condition deteriorates. To maintain results, we recommend proper washing techniques and pairing your correction with ceramic coating for long-term protection. This prevents swirls from returning and extends the time between corrections.
Do new cars need paint correction?
+
Yes! Even new vehicles often have transport swirls and dealer-induced scratches from washing and handling before delivery. Paint correction removes these imperfections before applying ceramic coating, ensuring you’re sealing in perfection rather than defects. Many new car owners are surprised by the improvement when viewing their paint under LED inspection lights.
Can I wash my car normally after paint correction?
+
After paint correction with wax application, wait 48 hours before washing. However, improper washing techniques can quickly reintroduce swirls. We provide guidance on proper care techniques including the two-bucket method and microfiber care. For maximum protection, consider ceramic coating which makes washing safer and easier while preserving your correction results.
