The project

Years of automatic car washes and quick wipe-downs had left this daily driver's paint covered in swirl marks and light scratches. Under the sun the finish looked cloudy and flat — so we planned a multi-stage correction to cut through the damage and bring the color back to life.

After a full decontamination, we measured the paint and dialed in a compounding and polishing process to safely remove the defects. The difference is night and day: reflections are sharp, the color is deep, and the swirls are gone.

What we did

  • Wash & decontaminationFoam wash, iron removal and clay so we polished a truly clean surface.
  • Paint depth readingsMeasured clear coat to correct safely and preserve the factory finish.
  • Compound & polishCut out swirls and scratches, then refined to a high-clarity, swirl-free gloss.
  • Protect & inspectSealed the fresh finish and inspected every panel under corrective lighting.

Lose the swirls for good.
