Brisbane’s Mobile Paint Correction Specialist
Restore your paint’s shine by removing the imperfections
What is paint correction?
Automotive Paint Correction (often referred to as a ‘Cut and Polish’) is a meticulous process designed to eliminate imperfections, such as swirl marks, scratches, water spots, oxidation, and other defects that marr the appearance of your vehicle's paint.
Over time, exposure to the elements and improper washing (automatic car washes are a big culprit) can take a toll on your car's exterior, leaving it seeming dull and worn.
A machine polisher is used in conjunction with various compounds and pad combinations to permanently remove these blemishes, restoring clarity and shine.
Some scratches and imperfections will be too deep to remove. As professionals we will make the correct judgement call on what can be safely removed without risking damage to your paint.
We can spend 15 hours or 5 hours polishing your paint. It’s all just based on what you'd like to achieve.

Stage 1 Paint Correction Results
Paint correction is a commitment you’re making to the vehicle. To ensure your paint is kept in great condition you will have to properly maintain the vehicle following the service. If you take your car to the automatic car wash or $10 car wash, the improper washing and drying will put those swirls and scratches straight back into your paint.
I have a new car. Do I need Paint Correction?
In short, yes. Although your car may be new to you. It has likely gone through several stages of transportation and washing before even arriving at the dealership. This often leads to new cars being delivered with paint full of contamination and swirls.
At Woody’s Direct Detailing we offer three ‘levels’ of polishing depending on your needs and budget:
Paint Enhancement, Stage 1 Paint Correction, Stage 2 Paint Correction.
Paint Enhancement
Is a service tailored for vehicles with minor paint imperfections. Paint enhancement does not address deep scratches or swirls like paint correction does. Instead the focus is on enhancing gloss, shine and initial appearance of the paint. It involves a single polishing step that removes light swirls, scratches and minor oxidation to make the existing paintwork look its best.
