Paint correction refers to the correction of your paint using a high speed or orbital polishing machine to buff out swirls and scratches from the clear coat. Different pads and compounds are used, and often multiple stages of polishing occur in order for a flawless finish.

In order to remove swirls and scratches from the clear coat, a polishing machine is used to slowly buff away a thin surface layer to reveal a scratch free clear coat underneath. A thick wax or ceramic coating is applied afterwards for extra protection. Overtime, excessive polishing can cause the machine to burn right through the clear coat. That is why you should always stick to professionals, so they can properly gauge the thickness of your paint and prevent damages.

At Washmaster we use only industry leading pads, compounds and polishers. Our highly trained technicians handle every ride with care, using refined techniques to ensure a flawless finish. Our paint gauge ensures we protect your clear coat and prevent any damages.
