Expert Paint Correction in Houston TX

The Paint Correction EXPERTS of Houston, TX

Introduction

Masters in the Craft of Paint Correction

Remember how good your car’s finish looked when you first saw it on the showroom floor? Sure your car still shines, but shine means nothing without the depth and clarity that comes from proper machine polishing performed by an advanced paint correction specialist, like American Detail in Houston. Paint correction and restoration (swirl removal), is a labor-intensive process utilizing nano-technology abrasives (compounds and polishes). The art of safe buffing techniques is what separates the true professional detailers from all the rest, and it is a skill-set that is mastered by very few. We often have customers bring us their cars after having sub-standard corrections done by other shops. American Detail has a reputation for putting out nothing less than perfection, which is why you can trust us when it comes to paint correction.

Our Process

Attention to Detail

Our paint correction and restoration specialists in Houston have a thorough understanding of the science behind the work. We begin by utilizing a digital paint depth gauge to see the thickness of each panel’s clear coat. This is to make sure that there is enough clear coat left to be polished. This is a crucial step as the process of paint correction involves “shaving-off” a thin, microscopic top layer of paint in order to level-out scratches and imperfections.

Each vehicle’s paint has unique qualities that require us to approach paint corrections differently on every job. We find out which combination of compounds and polishes are necessary to achieve the level of perfection we aim for. Once this is established, all of the exterior trim is taped off to prevent damage or staining from the compounds and polishes. At our shop in Houston, paint correction or restoration will vary from one car to the next, with some vehicles taking in excess of 30 hours to complete. The length of time is entirely dependent upon several factors including paint hardness, clear-coat thickness, color, and depth of imperfections.

WHAT IS PAINT CORRECTION?

Paint correction is the process of removing imperfections from a vehicle’s clear coat through the use of machine buffers and polishers paired with a unique combination of compounds and polishes. Our Paint Correction experts in Houston have mastered the techniques involved in this, and have broken it down to a science.

WHERE DO THESE IMPERFECTIONS COME FROM?

  • It’s hard to narrow down the reason for each vehicle. But, here are a few possible reasons:
  • Improper hand wash methods
  • Automatic car washes
  • “Car Dusters” or rags
  • Bird droppings
  • Sprinklers or hard water
  • Bug guts
  • Acid rain
