The Paint Correction Playbook
$150.00
Machine polishing from the first test spot to final inspection — including when to stop.
Paint correction is controlled removal from a resource that does not refill. This is the longest module in the series, covering defect diagnosis, pad and compound pairing, pass structure, and the professional judgement that separates a corrected panel from a damaged one.
What is inside
- Reading defects: swirls, marring, oxidation, etching, holograms and clear coat failure
- Machines and pads — what each one actually changes, and which three you really need
- Using a paint depth gauge, with the readings that should stop you working
- The test spot method: finding the least aggressive combination that works on this paint
- Pass structure, speed, pressure and arm rate, stage by stage
- One-step, two-step and three-step corrections defined and priced honestly
- A full diagnostic table for hazing, stalling, dusting, streaking and holograms
- Filling versus correcting, and why the IPA wipe is non-negotiable
- Final inspection, documentation and the client aftercare conversation
Who it is for
Detailers moving from washing into paid correction work, and anyone who owns a polisher but is not yet confident quoting with it.
