The Platinum Mobile Detailing Way: Our Paint Correction Process 

  • 1. Detailed Inspection and Prep

    Every paint correction service starts with a close look at your vehicle’s paint under professional lighting. We note swirl marks, light scratches, oxidation, and water spots, then hand-wash and decontaminate the surface to remove road film and embedded grime. This clean, bare canvas lets us plan the perfect approach for your car’s condition. 

  • 2. Precision Test Panel

    Before correcting the entire vehicle, we start with a small section of the paint to find the ideal polish, pad, and machine speed. This step fine-tunes the process, ensuring maximum clarity with minimal clear-coat removal. We’ll customize the process for your paint type and age. 

  • 3. 2-Stage Correction

    Using carefully selected compounds, equipment, and polishes, we perform a focused cutting stage to eliminate defects, followed by a refining stage to bring out deep color and a flawless, mirror-like gloss. We move panel by panel, checking our work from every angle as we go. 

  • 4. Optional Ceramic Upgrade

    Once the finish is perfected, we wipe the surface clean and inspect it in natural and artificial light for uniform depth and clarity. For drivers who want that pristine look to last, we recommend upgrading to a 2-year ceramic coating, which helps to lock in the newly refreshed look and makes future washes effortless.

Restores a Showroom Finish

As any Albuquerque driver already knows, Central New Mexico weather and road conditions can be tough on your vehicle. Years of exposure to sun and sand leave fine scratches and swirl marks that dull your paint. Our 2-stage paint correction safely removes those imperfections, revealing the deep, glass-like gloss hiding underneath. The transformation is dramatic. Your vehicle regains the rich color and crisp reflections it had the day you first drove it home.

Perfect Prep for Ceramic Coating

Ceramic coating bonds best to a flawless surface. By polishing away defects first, paint correction creates the ideal foundation for a long-lasting coating. This ensures the ceramic layer adheres evenly, maximizes its durability, and locks in a perfectly smooth, glossy finish for years.

Maintains Value and Pride of Ownership

A freshly corrected exterior doesn’t just look incredible. It makes a difference when it’s time to sell or trade in. Buyers notice the clarity and depth of a well-maintained finish and are willing to pay more for it. Even if you’re keeping the car, driving a vehicle that gleams like new every day adds an extra spark of pride and enjoyment every time you hit the road.

Busting Common Paint Correction Myths 

  • Myth 1: Paint Correction Is Only for Severe Damage

    In reality, everyday wear like light swirl marks, minor scuffs, and sun fading can quickly rob even a newer car of its shine. Paint correction targets these common flaws and polishes away microscopic imperfections to reveal a vibrant finish. It’s as valuable for a 2-year-old daily driver as it is for a vintage show car. 

  • Myth 2: It Will Thin or Damage the Paint

    When performed by trained technicians, paint correction will not damage your exterior. However, it’s important that you choose an experienced detailer who uses precise and controlled techniques. At Platinum Mobile Detailing, we measure paint depth and use professional compounds and pads to remove only the tiniest amount needed to level the surface. Your factory clear coat remains intact and in good condition. 

  • Myth 3: One Session Keeps Paint Perfect Forever

    Our professional paint correction process delivers a dramatic, long-lasting upgrade to your ride. However, it isn’t a lifetime fix. Normal driving, UV exposure, and regular washing will eventually introduce new micro-scratches and light swirls. The finish can stay stunning for years with proper maintenance and gentle washing, but ongoing care is still essential to keep it looking its best. 

  • Myth 4: Any Detailer or DIY Kit Can Do It

    Trust a professional for the job if you want the best paint correction results. Paint correction requires complex equipment, comprehensive paint-depth knowledge, and an expert eye. DIY kits or inexperienced detailers can leave haze, uneven results, or even burn through the clear coat. Choosing a trained specialist ensures the job is done safely and that the clarity and gloss meet professional standards.
