The best way to see the severity of the paint is to stop by your local detail shop and have them show you the defects under special color-matching LED lights.

There are different levels of paint correction. Depending on the amount of defects you want removed, you can choose a polish only, a cut and polish, or a cut, polish & finish. We call these “steps” or “stages” of paint correction.

Yes, you can polish your car on your own but if you don’t have experience or the right tools, you take a very high risk of leaving holograms or burning the clear coat.
