Do boats really get damaged enough for paint correction?

Truth be told, boats and all types of marine vehicles see some of the harshest, most abrasive contamination when in use. From bird droppings and UV ray damage intensified by the reflections from the water’s surface to saltwater corroding paintwork, nearly all surfaces of a boat or jet ski are completely consumed by defect-causing hazards that can be eliminated by our paint correction process.

Are paint swirls really obvious to the naked eye?

It depends on the severity. Many paint swirls are quite subtle, as much like everything else that can be remedied with paint correction packages like ours here at Lifestiles, these defects only live in the clear coat. We inspect your vehicle’s surface under a powerful LED light before performing your correction package.

Do you wash and decontaminate my paintwork before correction?

We have a full exterior detailing package here at our Athens, Tennessee detailing shop; however, we do NOT include it in our paint correction packages. Visit our exterior vehicle detailing page to learn more about the package we provide and how it helps us in better identifying what surface defects are afflicting your finish.

How about new boats and cars? Can paint correction improve newer paint?

For all new vehicle owners, we HIGHLY encourage you to explore bringing your car, truck, or SUV to our Athens, Tennessee detailing shop. Paint correction does not just eliminate micro-scratches and swirls that dealerships may have unknowingly inflicted on your new ride, it can actually add new value to your vehicle that was not there prior!

Elevate Your Vehicle’s Brilliance With Lifestiles!

All vehicle owners have the hope of driving around in a vehicle they can truly be proud of. Here at Lifestiles, we open this door for all cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, and more with our restorative paint correction packages! But what exactly IS vehicle paint correction, and how can it help improve your vehicle’s value and give it a glimmer worth preserving?

Paint correction is a process of abrasion that eliminates surface defects constrained to the vehicle’s clear coat. This can include the likes of swirl marks or spider webbing, oxidation, holograms, light scratches, marring, and more. As the process removes minor surface defects from painted surfaces, your ride again appears to be brand new or in many cases, better than it ever was before!

And because we strive to serve all types of vehicle owners, we have an additional boat buffing package designed to eliminate some of the exterior stains and damage caused to a marine vehicle over time. For more information about these truly restorative paint surface improvement packages, call us today or fill out our contact form to get in touch with a paint correction professional.

A Look Into The Investment of Vehicle Paint Correction

Eliminates Exterior Defects

Instead of having to ignore a minor scratch, paint chip, or perhaps the look of swirls and oxidation occurring across your finish on a sunny Tennessee day, our paint correction packages here at Lifestiles completely eliminates them. This leaves your ride looking brand new all over again!

Stops Unwanted Visual Degradation

Aside from monetary value, there is an intrinsic aesthetic value that all vehicle owners subconsciously or consciously take tally of. Paint correction removes unsightly paint defects that pester you every time you go to drive your car or ride your motorcycle.

Prepares Paint For Protection

We at Lifestiles of Athens, Tennessee have a handful of different, helpful paint protection packages for all types of automobiles and marine vehicles; however, we will NOT coat or cover swirled and scratched paintwork. Our paint correction packages will adequately prep your finish for protection by removing those defects and helping your finish look even more remarkable when coated or sealed.

Improves Overall Vehicle Value

Paint defects degrade your vehicle’s value - it is plain and simple. When the time comes to trade in and trade up, a dealership will put your ride under a microscope. Having your paint touched up and then protected by our team here at Lifestiles, you will not have to worry about lost value come trade in time.
