Two-Stage Paint Correction
Compound to cut, polish to refine. For dark paint that shows everything, or paint that has been through a few tunnel washes too many.
from $1,200typically about 14 h, over two days. Quoted from photos.

What's included
- Everything in the one-stage correction
- A cutting compound pass before the refining polish
- Edge and trim masking
- Two route days, usually back to back
What it doesn't cover
- Wet sanding
- Repainting or touch-up of stone chips
What I need on the day
- A parking spot with room to open all four doors, and the gate code if there is one.
- A hose spigot within reach saves my tank for the rinse; if there isn’t one, I bring the water.
- An outdoor outlet if you have one. If not, I run a generator.
- Shade or a garage. Direct sun ruins machine work, and I won’t do it in the sun.
- Two route days, usually back to back.
