Boulder Paint Correction
Paint correction is the process of removing minor scratches and imperfections found in the vehicles clear coat. Using an electric polisher, a microfiber buffing pad, and a special "cutting" compound (extremely fine abrasive), the detailer will "cut" into the clear coat of a vehicle’s paint till the scratches are leveled or removed.
Paint Correction, also referred to as Polishing, involves using a series of very fine abrasive compounds to remove minor scratches and imperfections in your cars clear coat.
These fine scratches in your paints clear coat are responsible for the notorious "swirls" you see when sunlight reflects off your vehicle. These "swirls" are not actually circular scratches, but rather, they are just random scratches that appear as almost holographic swirls when reflecting a point source of light such as the sun, or as seen here, the shop lights.
This process also naturally removes all of the oxidation on the surface of your clear coat that dulls the exterior of your vehicle. Depending on the degree of damage, we may have to start with a more aggressive compound to "cut" deeper into the clear coat (sometimes even using fine sand paper), and follow up with another one of two finer "cuts" to restore the gloss of your clear coat.
The result is a gloss and shine that in many cases exceeds the one you remember when your vehicle came off the factory floor (see the before and after pictures below). In fact, many of our customers bring their brand-new vehicles in for a Polish to remove any minor imperfections from the factory prior to receiving a ceramic coating. If you are considering a ceramic coating for your older vehicle, it is wise to consider a paint correction prior to doing so.
Managed to get an appointment for a wash and wax on short notice (same day). Drove our Mustang cross country and picked up tons of bugs along the way. In one hour, Leo and his crew did an amazing job! I'd highly recommend them and will make sure to bring it back whenever it needs another bath and polish.
I am not the kind to leave reviews, but The Works did an amazing job with my Subaru. I took my car in yesterday and Quincy is absolutely amazing. You can tell the level of care that they put into your vehicle. There were stains that they were able to point out when they first inspect the car that I had never noticed. Detailing at other places I...
Was absolutely amazed by the quality of work. I had a full interior detail and minor paint correction with a cermaic coating. My car is a 2007 so it was quite dirty on the inside and the paint had many swirls. The interior detail turned out better than I imagined. They got all the stains removed, which some of the stains I thought were...
