Oxidation happens to paintwork over a period of time. You've no doubt seen 'pink' dull paintwork on a car that used to be red. This is due to the 'bleaching' effect of UV rays in sunlight. This can be corrected by using a suitable paint cleaner and machine polisher to remove the oxidation and return the shine. The paintwork can then be sealed with products containing UV blockers to help preserve the shine.
Even the most badly oxidised of cars can be transformed. This Porsche 928 wasn't even pink it had turned white! After some careful machine polishing it was returned to its former glory at a loss of 6-8 microns in paint thickness out of a total of 130.
Cars with faded paint can be difficult to sell on and will be worth a fraction of their retail value compared to one with good paint. Colour correction can easily restore your car to its factory condition, adding value and making it much easier to sell on. Little touches like replacing worn or missing badges along with the colour correction can make dramatic differences.
Process: The process of colour correction will include a full wash of your car, a claying stage to remove bonded on contaminants and a two stage machine polish to remove oxidation and defects. Once colour corrected the paint will be sealed or waxed and details such as glass, exausts, wheels and tyres attended to.
