Polishing & paint restoration
Polishing removes surface imperfections such as oxidation, swirl marks, and fine scratches. This process refines the paint to restore depth, clarity, and a smooth, reflective finish.

Our approach
Different vehicles need different levels of correction
Newer vehicles typically require a single-step polish to enhance gloss and prepare the surface for coating.
Older or neglected finishes may need a multi-step correction to fully restore clarity and remove deeper imperfections. These services are quoted individually after inspection.
Not sure if your vehicle needs full correction or just a light polish? We’ll inspect the paint and recommend the right level of service so you only pay for what you actually need.
Polish & paint details
Included protection
Every polishing service includes a short-term sealant or ceramic booster that provides protection for approximately 6–12 months.
This helps preserve the restored finish and is especially useful for seasonal maintenance or pre-winter protection.
Why environment matters
Polishing and correction work require the right conditions for best results. All major corrections are performed in a controlled shop environment to protect your paint from heat and contamination. Working outdoors in direct summer sun can cause damage to the clear coat and reduce overall finish quality.
Ceramic coatings
Ceramic coatings add a hardened glass-like layer to your paint, protecting it from UV damage, road salt, and chemical stains while keeping it easier to clean.

Ceramic coating details
Maintenance
All ceramic coatings require ongoing care to maintain performance. Annual inspections and periodic maintenance washes help preserve their protection and keep your vehicle looking freshly detailed year-round.
Why environment matters
High-quality ceramic coatings must cure indoors under controlled conditions. Applying coatings outdoors or in uncontrolled environments can shorten their lifespan and affect overall performance. This is one of the main reasons Summit’s results last longer than typical mobile applications.
