What Is Paint Correction?

Paint correction is a machine polishing process that removes surface defects from your car’s clear coat — including swirl marks, fine scratches, oxidation and water spots — restoring genuine gloss and clarity to your paintwork. Unlike a wash or wax, it permanently eliminates the damage rather than masking it.

Paint Correction vs. a Regular Detail

A regular detail cleans and protects your paint. Paint correction goes further — it uses a machine polisher and cutting compounds to level the clear coat, removing defects at a microscopic level. The result is paintwork that looks better than it has in years, deep gloss and all.

Swirl Marks & Scratches — Safely eliminated using a DA machine polisher with correct cutting compounds. No hand-cutting, no shortcuts.

Works on All Paint Types — Safe for clear coat, single-stage, and ceramic-coated vehicles. We assess paint thickness and defect depth before selecting the right correction stage.

Book Online or Call
Choose your correction stage, pick a date and your home or office location. Takes 2 minutes to book online.
02
Paint Assessment
We inspect your paint under lighting, measure clear coat thickness, and assess defect depth — then select the right pads and compounds for your car.

Panel by panel, we machine polish your paintwork with a DA polisher — cutting out swirl marks, fine scratches and oxidation from the clear coat.

Absolutely thrilled with the results! Daniel provided an exceptional car cleaning service from start to finish. He was very professional, easy to communicate with, and attentive to detail. He put a lot of effort into cleaning my car, regularly checking in with me throughout the process to make sure I was happy with the progress. The results were excellent and totally worth the money. I’ll definitely use his services again and would highly recommend him to others!

Had my car detailed by Daniel from Wax and Wipe on Saturday and OMG – it looks insane! He was super thorough, careful with every part of the car, and even checked in with me on a few things to make sure I was happy with the approach. He arrived on time, paid attention to every detail, and clearly takes pride in his work. Highly recommend if you're looking for a professional, high-quality clean. Thanks again, Daniel!

Really impressed with Dan's work. Not only did he clean the mould from the car interior, but got the interior cleaner than I've ever seen it before. Friendly guy who was punctual and easy to communicate with.

Could not recommend Wax & Wipe enough!! I was away for 2 months when my housemate discovered my car had moulded. I reached out to Daniel and he was absolutely awesome - super quick to reply and really easy to deal with, even while I was still overseas. Daniel came around yesterday now that I’m home and did a full deep clean and mould treatment on the car, and it honestly looks brand new. It even smells great! He also moved the car into a better spot to clean it while it was still mouldy, which saved me having to deal with it. Thanks so much Daniel!

Highly recommend Daniel! I was away for over a month during a particularly wet period in Sydney. Unfortunately, a leak in my car led to mould developing throughout the interior. Daniel managed to fit the job in over the weekend and did an excellent job. He was very meticulous in cleaning every area. Hopefully, I won’t have this issue again, but if I do, I’ll definitely be getting Daniel back.
