Myths and Facts About Paint Correction

Myth 1: Paint correction temporarily covers up scratches 

Myth 1: Paint correction temporarily covers up scratches Myth 1: Paint correction temporarily covers up scratches

Paint correction does not mask scratches. This process removes them by carefully leveling your clear coat. At Opaque Auto Works, our paint correction process uses quality compounds to eliminate surface defects. Unlike glazes or fillers that wash away over time, our paint correction services provide a permanent improvement.

Myth 2: Paint correction can "restore" old, worn paint 

Myth 2: Paint correction can "restore" old, worn paint

While paint correction can greatly enhance a vehicle’s finish, it cannot restore paint that is rusted, peeling, or heavily damaged. At Opaque Auto Works, we always assess the condition of a vehicle’s paint to ensure it’s healthy enough for paint correction. We will always provide an honest and transparent assessment so you know what to expect.

Myth 3: A one-size-fits-all approach to paint correction is good enough 

Myth 3: A one-size-fits-all approach to paint correction is good enough

No two vehicles have the same paint condition. A cookie-cutter approach to paint correction doesn't work. At Opaque Auto Works, we tailor our paint correction process to the vehicle’s paint type, defect severity, and our customer’s expectations. Whether it's a single-stage polish or a 2-step correction, we customize your service down to the detail to get the best results possible.

Myth 4: Paint correction will remove all defects 

Myth 4: Paint correction will remove all defects

Although paint correction can dramatically improve a vehicle’s finish, it doesn’t remove every single surface imperfection. Some deeper scratches, nicks, or scrapes are too severe to correct without risking damage to the clear coat. Our team sets realistic expectations from the start, focusing on safely improving your vehicle’s appearance as much as possible.

Our Paint Correction Process

A Look at Our Paint Correction Process

We handle paint correction the professional way. We offer a single or multi-step process that is tailored to the condition of your vehicle’s clear coat. The severity of your clear coat imperfections helps determine the level of correction it requires. We utilize careful cutting, buffing, and polishing steps, abrading away a microscopic layer of clear coat where common defects exist. Each paint correction service may include:


  • Thorough surface inspection and defect mapping
  • Controlled abrasion using professional-grade equipment and techniques
  • Finishing polish for depth, clarity, and enhanced gloss
  • Optional headlight restoration for improved clarity


These steps work together to refresh your vehicle’s finish and bring out its full potential.

Leading Benefits 

Leading Benefits of Paint Correction

  • Elevated Clarity of Your Clear Coat

    Opaque Auto Works has a paint correction process that revives the clarity of your vehicle's clear coat. We remove surface defects and oxidation with cutting, buffing, and polishing processes. When your vehicle’s clear coat is corrected, the true color and depth of your paintwork are revealed beneath. This elevated clarity gives your vehicle a fresh, mirror-like finish that looks as good as new, if not better.

  • Eliminates Chalky Oxidation

    Sun exposure and general neglect can lead to a dull, chalky appearance on the paint’s surface. This is oxidation, and our paint correction team at Opaque Auto Works specializes in removing it safely. Our paint correction process revives the paint and gives it a more vibrant look. Paint correction is one of the fastest ways to make your vehicle look dramatically better and prevent compounding issues with its paint.

  • Removes Swirl Marks and Scratches

    Swirl marks and light scratches are some of the most common issues with your clear coat. These make your paint look tired, even if it’s clean. Our expert team at Opaque Auto Works uses advanced paint correction techniques to level out these surface defects. In turn, we significantly improve your finish without harming the actual paint. The result is a smooth, swirl-free appearance that enhances your vehicle’s look from every angle.

  • Improves Vehicle Value

    Paint correction can play a big role in boosting the resale or trade-in value of your vehicle. A well-maintained exterior signals to buyers that the vehicle has been properly cared for. At Opaque Auto Works, we help vehicle owners maximize their vehicle’s value with a finish that stands out.
