Paint Correction (Cut & Polish) Adelaide

Bring your car’s paint back to life with professional machine polishing

Why Choose Paint Correction?

Over time, paint losses its gloss from swirl marks, oxidation, and light scratches. Many people call this process “cut & polish”, but the modern world calls it paint correction

At GMC Detailing, we offer three levels depending on your goals and budget:

  • Paint Enhancement - A light polish for extra gloss.

  • Cut & Polish (2-Step Correction) - The traditional “cut & polish”, designed to remove deeper marks and restore clarity.

  • Paint Correction (Multi-Stage) - A premium, showroom-quality finish for enthusiasts and long-term protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What’s the difference between a cut & polish and paint correction?

They’re essentially the same thing. A “cut & polish” is the old-school name, while “paint correction” is the modern detailing term., The difference comes down to hoe advanced the product and techniques are today.

Results can last 12-24 months depending on maintenance. For the best protection, we recommend adding a ceramic coating.

Q: Will it remove all scratches?

Paint correction removes swirls, oxidation, and most scratches, but very deep scratches (through the clear coat) cannot be fully corrected without respray.
