PAINT
CORRECTION.
Multi-stage machine polishing. We remove the damage — not bury it under wax.
Your car's exterior endures a lot from Minnesota's challenging weather — dirt, snow, heat, and cold all wear down the paint over time. At Yelo Autosports, we specialize in paint correction and buffing to restore your vehicle's finish to a near-showroom shine.
The process begins with a thorough wash and clay bar treatment to remove all contaminants like dirt, iron, and tar. We then use advanced buffing techniques to eliminate swirl marks and light scratches, ensuring a smooth, glossy surface that enhances your car's visual appeal.
We always recommend bringing the vehicle in for a paint inspection before deciding on a stage. Lighting is everything — what looks fine in a garage can show major defects under direct sun.

THE PROTECTION YOU'RE PAYING FOR.
REMOVES THE DAMAGE
Wax hides swirls. Polish removes them. Real paint correction levels the clear coat to remove the imperfection — the right way.
RESTORES DEPTH & GLOSS
A corrected finish reflects light cleanly instead of scattering it. The colors come back. Black looks black, red looks red.
MANDATORY BEFORE COATING
If you ceramic-coat over swirls, you lock them in for years. We always recommend at least a Stage 1 before any coating job.
SHOW-READY FINISH
Stage 3 is what cars looked like off the showroom floor — minus the dealership swirl marks they put on during prep.
