The Enhancement.
The Enhancement Detail is perfect for those looking to enhance their paintwork by removing micro marring, holograms and some swirls by machine polishing. If you've just acquired a brand new car, its most likely in need of an Enhancement Detail. This is the most popular option for a typical new car as most of the time it's not necessary to complete a full paint correction.
In Joe Huntley's 15+ years of wide ranging experience, he has only ever encountered two manufacturers that provide as close to 'perfect' paintwork as possible. Bugatti and Roll Royce. For the rest, The Enhancement Detail is ideal for bringing the paintwork back to its full potential .
Although it may seem like a wide range, this service aims to remove between 50-70% of in-surface defects. This will include micro marring from previous dual action polishers, holograms from rotary polishers and the dreaded swirl marks.
The reason it ranges between 50-70% is because no two paint jobs are the same. Clear coat hardness is a main dictator as well as previous repairs.
What can't be removed during The Enhancement Detail?
Heavier swirl marks in harder paint types, RIDS (random isolated deep scratches) and sanding marks. If your paintwork is suffering any of these then it's recommend you step up to the Correction Detail.
The Enhancement Detail is normally finished with a synthetic paint sealant or carnauba wax (customer/car dependant). However many opt to go one step further and add a ceramic coating.
