What to expect

Improve what can be safely polished while setting the right expectation for deeper damage.

Results depend on the depth and type of defect. Deep scratches that have penetrated the paint may require touch-up paint or refinishing rather than polishing alone.

Condition first

Correction begins with the condition of the paint.

Light swirls and surface marks can often be improved through polishing. Deeper damage may need a different repair path, so photos and condition notes are helpful when requesting a quote.
