Prices above are guide prices by vehicle size, not fixed prices — the final price can vary depending on your vehicle’s condition (heavy soiling, pet hair, mould, or an especially intricate vehicle), and is always agreed with you before any work begins. See our Terms & Conditions for details.

This is a genuine 2-day process — cutting and finishing need real separation to get the best possible result. Rushing both into one day risks compromising the final clarity and finish, which is what makes 95%+ correction achievable properly.

Is This the Right Package for Your Car?

Who it's for

Stage 2 is for cars with genuine, visible swirling or scratching — marks you can see and feel under normal light, not just under a detailing lamp. It's also the right choice if you've had Stage 1 before and know your paint needs more, or if you simply want the best possible result and aren't in a rush.

When to choose something else

If your paint just looks a little tired or hazy without visible swirls or scratches, Gloss Enhancement gets a genuine result for less. If you have visible defects but want a faster, single-day option, Stage 1 corrects up to 70–90% in one visit.

What the visit looks like

A genuine 2-day process. Day 1 is decontamination, defect mapping and a heavy cutting pass. Day 2 is a finishing polish, 2-year ceramic coating, and a final inspection under lights.

What you're left with

The deepest correction we offer — a 95%+ reduction in swirls and scratches — with 2 years of ceramic protection locked in over a genuinely clarified finish.
