Paint Enhancement (One-Step Polish)
Paint enhancement is a one-step machine polish for paint that has lost its shine. It removes light swirl marks, haze and mild oxidation, so your paint looks deeper and glossier. It's exterior-only, so it pairs well with an interior detail or a ceramic coating.

Paint Enhancement FAQ
What's the difference between paint enhancement and paint correction?
Paint enhancement is a single polishing step that removes most light defects and maximizes gloss. Multi-step correction uses heavier cutting to remove deeper defects and takes much longer. For most daily drivers, a one-step polish gives the biggest visual improvement for the cost.
Will polishing remove all scratches?
It removes light swirls and haze. Scratches deep enough to catch a fingernail can be reduced but usually not removed completely.
Is polishing safe for my paint?
Yes, when done correctly. A one-step polish removes only a very thin layer of clear coat, and Vinny is trained in machine polishing.
