Paint correction removes the damage. A ceramic coating stops it coming back. This service does both — and the order matters, because a coating locks in whatever finish is underneath it. Correct first, then coat.
What’s included
After a full wash and complete decontamination (iron fallout, tar, embedded grit), the paintwork is machine polished to remove swirl marks, light scratches, oxidation and etching. This is real correction — defects are removed, not filled and hidden.
The corrected paint is then prepped and a professional 3-5 year ceramic coating is applied. As a FEYNLAB certified detailer, I’m trained and approved to install FEYNLAB’s professional-grade coatings — chemistry you can’t buy off the shelf.
Why a ceramic coating
A cured ceramic coating chemically bonds to your paint and outlasts any wax by years, not months. Water beads off, road grime and winter salt struggle to stick, UV fading is slowed, and washing the car becomes dramatically easier — dirt releases with a snow foam and gentle wash instead of scrubbing. On Scottish roads, through Scottish winters, it’s the single best investment in keeping a car looking new.
Who it’s for
Newer cars you want to protect from day one. Cars whose paint has picked up swirls and needs a reset. Anyone tired of waxing every couple of months for protection that vanishes by the next season.
Takes approximately 2–3 days, carried out in the secure garage. Drop-off only, based in Whitburn, West Lothian.
From £780. Message me on WhatsApp or call 07510 141510 — a couple of photos of your paint gets you an honest assessment of what your car needs.
Correction and coating work is done at the Whitburn unit, with cars travelling in from across West Lothian and from Edinburgh, Glasgow, Falkirk and Stirling. The prices page shows how this compares with multi-stage correction, and the FAQs cover curing time and aftercare.
Common questions
What does paint correction and ceramic coating involve?
Machine polishing to physically level the clear coat and take the defects out, then sealing that finish with a FEYNLAB ceramic coating. It runs from £780 and takes two to three days.
Is ceramic coating worth it?
It is worth it once the paint underneath is right. A coating locks in the finish it is applied over, so correcting first and coating second is the order that matters.
Where is the work carried out?
At the unit in Whitburn. Correction work needs controlled lighting and temperature, so it is not something I do mobile.
