All paintwork correction processes are personally undertaken by Paul Dalton, founder and owner of Miracle Detail.

Instead of getting your car expensively resprayed, which may even affect its originality and resale value, why not ask about Miracle's paintwork correction service? Paul can decontaminate the paintwork, remove scratches, bird stains, water marks, swirl marks, machine buffer marks, holograms, cobwebbing and micro-marring and restore the paintwork back to its original colour if it has faded.

Have a look at the 'before and after' photographs of various cars in the gallery, or see below under the Paintwork Correction Process section, to see what we have been able to do for previous customers.

This service is provided on a one-to-one basis, to help you decide the level of application your car requires or to assess the standard of your car's paintwork. New cars, for example, can be inspected for paint defects before collection.

On arrival, the following schedule will apply:

1. Digital Paintwork Readings

   Paint levels will be measured in microns and then Paul will confirm what will be required to remove any paint defects. At this stage, you can find out if panels have been resprayed.

2. Panel Test

   As part of the Miracle Detail demonstration, a panel of the car, usually one wing or half of the bonnet, will be systematically prepared.

3. In-depth Consultation

   An explanation of paintwork preparation, rejuvenation and protection techniques, with a review of further treatments such as interior care. A guide to cleaning your vehicle(s) correctly will follow, to ensure that you do not introduce light scratches or swirl marks once the paintwork has been corrected.

This removes the minimum amount of paint (1 or 2 microns out of, say, 120-140) but to the maximum effect. In most cases, scratches, swirl marks, buffer marks, micro-marring, cobwebbing and hologram effects can be totally removed from all types of paintwork, including scratch-resistant ceramic clear coats (otherwise known as nano-particle clearcoat).

Firstly, the paintwork is measured for thickness using digital paint depth gauges, which are capable of reading down to 1 micron. Depending on the paint thickness, it is then carefully re-levelled by 1 or 2 microns, so that any minor scratches, swirl marks, buffer marks, holograms or micro-marring in the paint's clearcoat are totally removed. This also restores dull or faded paintwork to its original glory, as light can be perfectly reflected from this newly un-oxidised and re-levelled surface, before any polishes, cleansers and waxes are applied. Customers who have experienced this service often compare its effect to a full respray – at a fraction of the cost and inconvenience. And some have even said that the paintwork looks better than when it was new, thanks to Paul's extensive finishing techniques.
