Paint buffing is the ultimate bodywork treatment! We start by first removing swirl marks and scratches, "cut" the paint using professional grade tools and supplies, and then buff it all to a nice, smooth finish. In addition, your detailer will apply a glaze to protect the clear coat for a long time and make it super shiny!
Single-stage paint buffing is a component of the Ultimate package and is also available as an add-on to Deluxe packages only, as the car needs to be thoroughly cleaned and treated with clay first.
"How much time is needed to perform single-stage paint buffing?"
It really depends on the condition of your car, as well as the color and type of paint. It would take approximately an additional 2 hours for our technician to perform such a service. The more scratches and swirl marks you have embedded in your paint, the more steps this procedure will require; if this is the case, you may need to upgrade to Multi-Stage Paint Buffing to truly see the desired results.
"How long does the finished product last?"
When doing a full detail with paint buffing, your bodywork will remain spotless for 4 to 6 months. However, you do need to perform maintenance washes every now and then in order to maintain the wax of the car, prevent dirt from scratching your car, and deter the presence of hard water spots staining your bodywork.
"Is it worth doing if I plan on selling my car?"
It most definitely is! Bad paint conditions, scratches, swirl marks, etc will considerably lower the value of your car; the more expensive your car is, the more expensive the paint job can be. The many imperfections of your bodywork will distract potential buyers from the real value of your vehicle; by investing in paint buffing, you are enhancing its worth.
