Professional Car Paint Protection, Polishing, and Correction
Restore. Protect. Elevate.
Paint correction is the science and art of removing imperfections to reveal flawless depth, clarity, and gloss. At Aphrodite Detailing, we perform this process exclusively in a controlled garage environment, ensuring your vehicle is shielded from wind, dust, and airborne contaminants — something mobile detailing outdoors cannot guarantee.
All paint correction packages are designed for vehicles with access to a garage, and we require the car to remain indoors while coatings set, to achieve the best, long-lasting results.
When booking, select your desired polishing stage and ceramic coating protection (1–7 years with guarantee), creating a tailored package for their vehicle.
The Four Stages of Paint Correction
Aphrodite Detailing – Where Science Meets Surface Perfection
Each stage refines the paint further, using state-of-the-art machinery, specialist lighting, and paint depth analysis tools to achieve precision at every level.
◆ Stage 1 – Preparation and Decontamination
Before any correction begins, your vehicle undergoes a thorough cleansing ritual to ensure a flawless foundation.
Includes:
◇ Snow foam pre-wash and two-bucket hand wash using SpotlessWater
◇ Iron and tar removal to eliminate bonded contaminants
◇ Clay bar treatment for an ultra-smooth surface
◇ Paint thickness readings to assess safe correction levels
◇ Interior hoovered and wiped clean
This stage ensures the paintwork is surgically clean, allowing for accurate polishing without hidden debris or contamination.
◆ Stage 2 – Cutting (Defect Removal)
The correction process begins with precision cutting — removing oxidation, swirl marks, and light to moderate scratches.
Includes:
◇ Machine polishing with professional-grade compounds and cutting pads
◇ Measured, controlled material removal guided by paint depth readings
◇ Specialist lighting to reveal imperfections invisible in natural light
This stage restores the clarity and purity of the paint, eliminating years of surface damage.
◆ Stage 3 – Refining (Gloss Restoration)
Once imperfections are removed, refinement restores the lustre and depth.
Includes:
◇ Finishing polish with ultra-fine abrasives
◇ Enhances reflectivity, colour depth, and gloss intensity
◇ Final inspection under specialist LED lighting to ensure uniform finish
The result: a mirror-like finish that captures light beautifully and reveals the vehicle’s true character.
◆ Stage 4 – Protection and Coating Application
Perfection deserves preservation. The final stage seals the corrected surface with your chosen protection system.
Includes:
◇ Autoglym Ultra High Definition Wax
◇ Application of a ceramic coating (1–7 years, chosen at booking)
◇ Curing in a controlled garage environment to prevent contamination
◇ Final surface wipe-down and inspection under studio lighting
Unlike mobile applications performed outdoors, Aphrodite’s indoor coating ensures a flawless cure — no dust, no wind, no compromise.
