Professional Paint Correction in Okeechobee, FL

Say goodbye to swirl marks, scratches, and dull paint — Nunez Auto Services brings your vehicle’s finish back to life with expert correction.

What Is Paint Correction?

Paint correction is the process of removing imperfections in your vehicle’s clear coat—things like swirl marks, oxidation, water spots, buffer trails, and fine scratches. Unlike waxing or polishing that temporarily masks defects, paint correction actually restores your vehicle’s paintwork to a deep, glossy finish.
At Nunez Auto Services, we provide professional multi-stage paint correction services that make your car look better than new—whether you drive a daily commuter, a classic showpiece, or a luxury vehicle.

What Paint Correction Fixes

Paint correction is ideal if you’re dealing with:

Swirl Marks

Commonly caused by automatic car washes or improper hand washing.

Micro-Scratches

Small but visible scratches from towels, bushes, or clothing.

Oxidation

Fading or chalky paint from sun exposure.

Water Spots

Hard water deposits that etch into the clear coat.

Holograms & Buffer Trails

Left behind by poor machine polishing techniques.

Etching

Caused by bug splatter, bird droppings, or tree sap.

These defects rob your car of its shine and make the surface appear dull or hazy. Our correction process safely removes these blemishes without damaging the clear coat, restoring that deep mirror-like gloss.

Our Paint Correction Process

At Nunez Auto Services, we use a multi-stage machine polishing system based on your paint type and defect severity. Here’s how we do it:

Step 1: Decontamination

We start by washing the vehicle thoroughly and applying a clay bar treatment to remove embedded contaminants like tar, iron, and overspray.

Step 2: Paint Evaluation

Using professional-grade lights and inspection tools, we identify imperfections and measure paint thickness to determine the appropriate correction method.

Step 3: Compounding

This stage uses an abrasive polish to remove up to 90% of visible defects. Deeper scratches are reduced or leveled without cutting too deeply into the clear coat.

Step 4: Polishing

We refine the finish with a lighter polish to eliminate haze and restore gloss. This stage reveals the true potential of your paint.

Step 5: Paint Protection (Optional but Recommended)

Once corrected, we protect your results with your choice of wax, sealant, or ceramic coating to maintain that finish for months or years.

One-Step vs. Two-Step Correction

Not all cars require multi-stage correction. We offer:
One-Step Paint Enhancement

Removes 50–70% of defects. Great for newer cars or light imperfections.

Two-Step Full Correction

Removes up to 95% of defects. Recommended for older vehicles, heavily scratched surfaces, or preparing for ceramic coating.

We’ll assess your vehicle and recommend the right level of correction to meet your goals and budget.
