TAKE YOUR VEHICLE'S PAINTWORK TO THE NEXT LEVEL WITH RIGGS NW DETAIL
Professional Paint Restoration & Surface Refinement
Paint correction is the process of permanently removing swirl marks, light scratches, oxidation, and surface imperfections from your vehicle’s clear coat. Unlike a basic polish or wax, professional paint correction carefully levels defects to restore clarity, depth, and gloss.
At Riggs NW Detail, I perform paint correction with a focus on precision and surface integrity. Whether your vehicle requires a single-stage enhancement or a multi-step correction, the goal is not just shine — but true defect removal.
Paint correction is also the foundation of a proper ceramic coating installation. Coating over uncorrected paint locks in imperfections. That’s why every ceramic coating service begins with appropriate surface correction to ensure maximum gloss and long-term performance.
If you're looking for professional paint correction in Bend, Oregon, I provide tailored solutions based on your vehicle’s condition and your long-term goals.

Not sure which level your vehicle needs? I evaluate every vehicle in person to determine the appropriate correction level based on paint condition and long-term goals.
LEVEL 2 PAINT CORRECTION
(Compound & Polish – Multi-Step Correction)
Level 2 paint correction is designed for vehicles with moderate swirl marks, light scratches, and visible paint imperfections that cannot be resolved with a single-stage polish.
This multi-step process begins with compounding to remove deeper defects, followed by refining polish to restore clarity, depth, and gloss. The result is significant improvement in overall paint condition with approximately 60–75%+ defect removal, depending on paint hardness and condition.
This level of correction is commonly recommended prior to ceramic coating installation when the goal is long-term protection over properly corrected paint.
STARTING AT $1,000
Turnaround: 1–2 days depending on vehicle size and condition
THIS PACKAGE INCLUDES:
- Full decontamination wash process
- Iron removal & surface prep
- Multi-step machine compounding
- Refining polish stage
- Approx. 60–75%+ defect removal
- Paint protection sealant
- Trim & tire finishing
Final defect removal percentage depends on paint condition, previous damage, and clear coat thickness. A vehicle inspection is recommended to determine the appropriate correction level.

Our Paint Correction Process
Every paint correction service at Riggs NW Detail begins with a detailed inspection under proper lighting to accurately evaluate swirl marks, scratches, and overall paint condition. Paint correction is not guesswork — it is measured, controlled, and intentional.
Surface preparation includes thorough decontamination and defect assessment to ensure the polishing process removes imperfections safely while preserving clear coat integrity. Depending on your vehicle’s condition, I perform single-stage, multi-stage, or refinement polishing to achieve the appropriate level of defect removal.
Proper correction is especially critical prior to ceramic coating installation. Applying a ceramic coating over uncorrected paint permanently locks in imperfections. That’s why preparation and correction are never rushed.
Each vehicle is unique, and the approach is tailored accordingly. The goal is not temporary gloss — it is long-term improvement in clarity, depth, and surface condition.
If you're looking for professional paint correction in Bend, Oregon, I provide an honest evaluation and recommend the level of correction that aligns with your vehicle’s condition and long-term protection goals.

How to Decide if Your Vehicle Needs Paint Correction
We understand the challenge of determining whether your vehicle requires a paint correction service. To assist you in making this decision, we have compiled a set of questions that will help you evaluate if a paint correction service is suitable for your needs.
- Does your vehicle suffer from minor scratches, swirl marks, or other unsightly surface blemishes?
- Is your vehicle’s paint lacking its former luster and vitality?
- Has it been more than three years since your last paint correction service (or have you never had one before)?
- Are there hard water spots, acid rain stains, or overspray marring the exterior of your vehicle?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, Riggs NW Detail highly recommends that you schedule a paint correction service. Reach out to us at (541) 639-6542
