Our Paint Correction & Polishing Packages
LEVEL 1
Gloss Enhancement Polish PACKAGE
TURNAROUND: 1 DAY
What Is A Gloss Enhancement Polish?
This is our most popular polishing option. It is more thorough and transformative than a typical maintenance detail, but less labor-intensive (and therefore more cost-effective) than our Level 2 or Level 3 Multi-Step paint correction options. It’s perfect for clients seeking noticeable results in a shorter turnaround time and often is all that is needed on a new car, as long as it is free of any major defects.
LEVEL 2
Paint Correction PACKAGE
What Is A Level 2 Paint Correction?
Our level 2 paint correction package is ideal for vehicles that are still in great shape, but need slightly more than our gloss enhancement polish. This package is designed to cut through surface haze caused by chemicals in automated car washes or the use of improper chemicals on the vehicles painted surfaces. This is where a large majority of the vehicles transformation takes place, by increasing the gloss and depth of the paint significantly. Sometimes our clients never even knew they had metallic flake in their paint until we deliver it back to them!

We often say this level of paint correction will provide about 80% correction rate, removing or minimizing light surface blemishes and light scratching from improper wash processes. We also sometimes recommend this package for some new vehicles that arrive with light defects from either the factory or being handled in transportation before it gets to the dealership and delivered to our clients.
LEVEL 3
PAINT CORRECTION PACKAGE
What Is A Level 3 Paint Correction?
Our level 3 paint correction package is for vehicles that you can clearly see wash scratches, swirling and other various paint defects under different light sources, whether it be your garage, the gas station or just sunlight. In our level 3, we step out of a process driven technique and begin by finding the best possible process for your specific vehicle, to give you the best possible finish. A huge driver that separates Presidential Detailing from our competitors is that our passion for detailing started with polishing and high level paint correction first. Ceramic coatings were then offered later on to help preserve those finishes and help our customers maintain the finish that we left them with.
Rather than ceramic coatings driving us to learn how to polish, we have mastered the art of working with and preserving the paint finish of all different types of vehicles. Our technicians have many years of experience and high level trainings by world class teachers. This allows us to extract the absolute best paint finish from your vehicle, all while taking into account precautions to avoid damaging your clear coat. This is what separates our paint correction services from others without experience who may possibly damage your vehicle by chasing a defect too far. Once your vehicles clear coat is compromised, it will require that panel to be repainted. Before selecting this package, one of our team members will go over your vehicle with you in person and make sure to explain exactly what you can expect and if we think this level of paint correction is appropriate and advisable for your vehicle’s usage.
Trust Our Highly Regarded Paint Correction & Polishing Process
Vehicle Intake and Exterior Detail
The first thing we do when you bring your vehicle to us, is a in person walk around to identify any problem areas that you may have a high focus on repairing. Once we have agreed upon the level of service to be completed, we will begin with a complete exterior detail. Using a two bucket wash and multi step decontamination process, we are able to remove any dirt or bonded contaminants and reveals to us every defect that will need to be corrected in the following steps.
Full Paint Inspection
After the first prep stage, we will comb through your entire vehicle with a trained eye to identify any major problem areas and the overall condition of the paint in its purist form. Using high powered lights on every square inch of paint on your exterior, we then can provide you with our recommended polishing or paint correction level to get the vehicle to a finish that you will be happy with and provide an exact final quote. At this time you can also choose to add on other services, such as a wheels off ceramic coating package, interior coating package or exterior glass coating package.
Cutting with Compounds
Swirls, light scratches and etchings from bugs or acid rain require professional machine polishing to remove properly. Through the process of machine polishing, we are actually removing a very minimal layer of your clear coat to level out these imperfections. Using speciality compounds, an assortment of pads and coupled with the industry’s highest quality equipment and tools, we can gently and safely remove or minimize the microscopic grooves created by any light scratch, swirl mark or etching, and leave a completely smooth, ultra glossy and clear surface.
Buffing, Polishing, and Jeweling
Finally, after the surface is even and level once again, we then implement the finish work on your ride via various polishing combinations that we have determined will give the best finish to your vehicles paint work and provide that extra deep color, slick surface and crystal clear appearance as if should! Also incorporating jeweling, where we dial back the abrasion and reinstate a diamond-like shine to your paintwork, we make it so your vehicle appears to be even more flawless than the day you purchased it from your local Tampa dealership!
