#1 Team of Paint Correction & Polishing Professionals

We Are Trained to Help Fix Defects and Restore Paint Gloss

Miss those days where you gazed upon your car, truck, or SUV and liked what you saw? If that feeling of pride has diminished just as quickly as the new car sparkle you remember from day one of owning it, you may want to consider our vehicle paint correction and restoration service here at Fresh Start Detail! 


Paint shine is stifled too often by a myriad of surface defects, such as swirl marks from abrasive washing techniques, scratches left behind by belt buckles and other hazards, stains caused by acidic bird droppings and bug splatters, or etching from acid rain that pours down on Beaverton. If your paintwork has been left generally unbothered by these hazards, it is no secret that factory clear coats are not leading the charge in gloss. All this and more is remedied by paint correction!

Fresh Start Detail - Paint Correction Process

Starting with Exterior Detailing

We begin the paint correction process here at Fresh Start Detail with a full exterior detailing effort. This will get your vehicle to a profoundly clean level, right down to the molecule as we first wash all areas with a  hand wash method. Following the removal of surface dirt and grime, we then add a clay bar application to thoroughly decontaminate your finish by agitating residual particles of dust in order to lift them without adding to any clear coat defects.

Inspection of Paintwork Condition

As you can imagine, a fully decontaminated car, truck, or SUV shows the TRUE condition of its clear coat. What our team reveals will be noted and from those observations, we will determine the level of paint correction your vehicle needs. Some more well-maintained rides only may require light swirl-free paint polishing efforts while others will end up requiring more in-depth abrasion, such as wet sanding or cutting with compounds.

Wet Sanding the Clear Coat

Even if it is to correct surface discrepancies and for the benefit of your automobile, every vehicle owner likely cringes a little bit when they think of using abrasion on their automobile’s finish. That’s okay! We at Fresh Start Detail understand that your vehicle is more than just an investment to you - It is part of your legacy. Our wet sanding process levels your clear coat and thus removes swirls, nicks, scratches, etching, and marring to ensure that those areas end up flawless.

Buffing and Polishing to Remove Haze

Buffing and polishing automotive clear coats is the final stage of paint correction before we apply a paint sealant, glossy ceramic coating, or self-healing paint protection film. These two integral steps clear away any remaining compound used to remove defects, haze from cutting, and simultaneously brings out a crystal clear appearance and high-gloss glamor on your finish.

Did You Buy a New Automobile Recently? It NEEDS Correction!

Congratulations, you just bought a new car! The look, feel, interior smell - Everything is perfect, until you realize that the paintwork is NOT flawless. Why not? It has never been driven by any previous owner, so the paint SHOULD be perfect, correct? Truthfully, no, and there are a variety of reasons why this is an issue on cars, trucks, SUVs, and any variety of other newer automobiles sold here in Beaverton, Oregon.


Surface defects, stains, UV degradation, and other discrepancies in a vehicle’s clear coat can and does often occur well before anyone owns it. From when your new ride rolls off the manufacturing floor, gets transported from one dealership to another, and even when the dealership you purchase it from washes it in their car wash or using their own methodologies, swirls, scratches, and issues mount. No new automobile is ever completely free of paint discrepancies, so having our paint correction service here at Fresh Start Detail performed on it will actually give it a fresh start!


Increasing the value of your vehicle from the get go! Contact us today to get a FREE quick quote or call us directly at (503) 641-3285 to get more information about our paint correction process. We work with new vehicles, older classics, modern luxury automobiles, and more, implementing unique techniques to adequately remove a wide variety of defects and discrepancies that cloud vehicle paint.
