Paint Correction · Clive
Road grime, salt and rushed washes leave Clive paint swirled and hazy. Niah and Ben assess your car at home and give you an honest quote, then machine polish the paint on your driveway.
The Package
No two paint jobs need the same amount of work, so correction is quoted on your vehicle. Send a few photos with your enquiry and Niah or Ben will tell you what is realistic.
Machine polishing that takes the swirls and dullness out of your paint, rather than filling them for a week.
Custom Quote
Set by your paint, quoted by Niah or Ben.
Related Add-Ons
Correction pairs best with protection. Niah or Ben can quote both together.
What’s Included
The paint is looked over before anything starts, so you know what can and cannot come out.
Swirls, haze and wash marks cut back with a machine polisher, a little at a time.
The finish is refined so it reflects cleanly instead of looking hazy in the sun.
Corrected paint is the right base for a ceramic coating, if you want to keep it that way.
Why Bay For Paint Correction
Clive drivers split their time between Napier and Hastings, and the paint picks up road grime, salt and dust off the plains along the way. Paint correction is machine polishing that takes the resulting swirls and haze out, panel by panel, on your driveway. Niah and Ben assess the car first and quote it honestly, so you know what will improve before any work starts. Corrected paint is also the right base for a coating.
A clean car can still look flat, because the problem is in the clear coat rather than on it. Swirls, haze and wash marks scatter the light, so the colour never looks as deep as it should. Niah and Ben inspect your paint at home, tell you honestly how far machine polishing can take it, and quote the correction for that car.
How Clive Is Served
Niah and Ben come to you anywhere in Clive, from the streets along the Clive River to the homes out toward the coast. They set up on your driveway, and you hear back from Niah or Ben to arrange the day before anything is booked.
Between The Rivers And The Coast Road
The Coastal Route carries a lot of traffic between Napier and Hastings. Road grime builds up on the lower panels and wheels, and it gets tracked inside on every trip.
Hawke's Bay gets long, bright summers, and New Zealand UV is strong. Dark paint parked in it every day fades and loses its depth faster than paint kept under cover.
When the car is in use every day, washing tends to be quick: a brush wash on the way home or a wipe with whatever is in the boot. Both leave swirls that only machine polishing removes.
01
Niah or Ben tells you what correction can realistically achieve on your car before it is booked, not after.
02
No need to leave the car anywhere. The work happens on your driveway or at your workplace.
03
Around five years of detailing experience each, and two people on the job.
04
Bay also applies professional ceramic coatings, so freshly corrected paint can be protected at the same visit.
How Correction Works
Drag the slider to machine polish the panel. Correction removes a fine layer of clear coat so the swirls go with it.
Swirls and wash marks are tiny valleys in the clear coat. They scatter light, which is why the paint looks dull even when it is clean.
Illustration, not to scale. Scratches that go through the clear coat cannot be polished out, and Niah or Ben checks the paint before any correction is quoted.
