How do I know if my car needs paint correction?
The most obvious sign is swirl marks under direct sunlight: fine circular scratches that make the paint look dull and hazy instead of deep and glossy. They come from automated car washes, incorrect hand washing technique and general use. If the paint looks flat compared to when the car was new, correction is almost certainly the right step. We are happy to take a look at the car and give you an honest assessment.
