⭐ Paint Correction – 1 Stage, 2 Stage & 3 Stage

Paint correction is the process of safely removing defects from your vehicle’s clear coat to restore clarity, gloss and depth.
Whether you need a light enhancement or a full restoration, Obsidian offers three correction levels tailored to the condition of your paint.

All correction is carried out in a private indoor workspace with proper lighting, controlled environment and professional rotary/DA machines.

🔶 Stage 1 – Paint Enhancement (Single Stage)

Ideal for newer cars or vehicles with light swirl marks.

What it does:

• Removes light swirling & hazing

• Improves gloss and sharpness

• Restores clarity without heavy cutting

Perfect for:

• New cars

• Well-maintained vehicles

• Cars needing a gloss boost

• Pre-ceramic preparation

Result:

Noticeably glossier paint, improved reflections and a cleaner, clearer finish.

🔶 Stage 2 – Medium Correction (Two Stage)

For cars with moderate defects or visible swirling under good lighting.

What it does:

Stage 1: Cutting pass to remove moderate scratches, swirls and marring
Stage 2: Refining polish to remove haze from the cutting stage and restore high gloss

Perfect for:

• Cars with obvious swirl marks

• Light scratches

• Dull or tired paint

• Dark colours showing defects

Result:

Deep gloss, clean reflections and a dramatic improvement in overall finish.

🔶 Stage 3 – Heavy Correction / Full Restoration (Three Stage)

The highest level of correction. Designed for heavily marked, aged or high-value paintwork.

What it does:

Stage 1 – Heavy Cutting: Removes deeper scratches, heavier swirling, oxidation and sanding marks
Stage 2 – Refinement: Eliminates haze from the cutting stage
Stage 3 – Jewelling Polish: Ultra-fine burnishing to maximise clarity and produce a show-car finish

Perfect for:

• Heavily swirled or scratched paint

• Older vehicles needing full restoration

• Perfectionists

• Show cars

• Dark colours requiring flawless finish

Result:

Maximum clarity, mirror-like reflections and the deepest gloss possible.

🔰 After Correction – Ceramic Protection Recommended

Once defects are removed, paint is at its most vulnerable.
Applying a ceramic coating protects your corrected finish and locks in the gloss for years.
