At Coastal Details of Charleston, we offer professional paint correction and ceramic coating services to help protect and enhance the appearance of your vehicle. Paint correction involves the careful removal of imperfections such as swirl marks, scratches, and oxidation from the paint surface, restoring a deep, glossy finish. Our skilled technicians utilize advanced techniques and premium products to achieve outstanding results. Following paint correction, we recommend applying a ceramic coating to create a durable, hydrophobic layer that provides long-lasting protection against environmental contaminants, UV rays, and minor scratches. This innovative coating not only adds depth and clarity to the paint but also makes maintenance easier for the long term. Our team is dedicated to delivering exceptional quality and customer satisfaction with every detailing service.
