MAJOR PAINTWORK CORRECTION DETAIL
This service is designed to transform the appearance of a vehicle and can in some cases be comparable to a complete re-spray. To achieve this, the paintwork receives up to a total of 8 seperate stages of machine polishing. This process carefully removes the damaged layers of paint along with any heavy oxidation, swirl marks and micro scratches, leaving a finish as near to new or sometimes even better than new as possible. This process is very labour intensive which is reflected in the overall price but is still considerably cheaper in comparison to a complete re-spray, which can also have negative effect on a vehicles originality.
