What we correct

Common paint damage we see.

Scratches

The most common damage on any vehicle — usually a foreign object making contact with the paintwork. Correction buffs out most light scratches, though deeper ones may need specialized services or body work.

Oxidation

The clear coat deteriorates from extreme temperatures and environmental exposure, leaving dull, discolored patches that flatten the whole finish.

Swirl marks

Small lines left behind by improper washing — a towel or material not designed for auto detailing. They create a streaky look that’s difficult to remove without professional help.

Spider webbing

Tiny scratches radiating from an abrasion or impact, usually the result of poor washing or detailing technique.

Water spots

Common on vehicles exposed to humidity or rain. The droplets leave dull, discolored marks that get harder to remove the longer they sit.

Haze from a bad polish

A previous poor polish job leaves holograms and haze in the clear coat. Correction clears it and reveals what your paint actually looks like.

Don’t stop at corrected

Lock the finish in with a coating.

Once your paintwork is pristine again, protect it. A ceramic coating shields the paint from dirt, dust, UV rays and oxidation while adding gloss and depth of color — so the shine you just paid for lasts years instead of months.

Common misconceptions

Paint correction, answered.

What does paint correction fix?

Paint correction removes swirl marks, light scratches, water spots and oxidation. At X-Treme Detailing in Fargo, ND, we restore your vehicle’s shine and prepare it for ceramic coating.

How long does paint correction take?

Most paint correction services take between 4 and 8 hours depending on your vehicle’s size and condition. Our team makes sure every detail is perfected for the best finish.

Is paint correction safe for my car’s clear coat?

Yes. Our process is safe when performed by professionals. We carefully remove a minimal layer of clear coat to restore gloss without damaging your paint.

Do I need ceramic coating after paint correction?

We strongly recommend it. Coating locks in the flawless finish and provides years of protection against UV rays, dirt and road salt.

What’s the difference between single-stage and multi-stage correction?

Single-stage correction removes minor imperfections and enhances gloss. Multi-stage correction targets deeper scratches and defects for a showroom-quality finish. We’ll recommend the right option for your vehicle.
