That’s the same way I started about three months ago. I did a few paint enhancements and once I got comfortable with my polisher I experimented with paint correction. I did jobs at ridiculously low prices just to get my hands on cars that I could “experiment” on. They already had trashed exteriors so I couldn’t make it any worse. I just took a detailers class on paint correction and ceramic coatings and finished my first professional coating this past weekend. Keep at it and in no time you’ll be ready for paint correction and coatings.

Let’s go brother! I only include a “paint enhancement” when I do ceramic coatings, since it’s already included in my process. 95% of my clientele are after paint correction and wet sanding cheap paint jobs or shot out paint that need it. If I did charge for a paint enhancement it would be additional $200-$250 to my normal detail price. Paint enhancement for myself can take an easy 1-2 hours. My go to 1 step correction is orange LC HDO or URO Fiber with a combo of IGL 1 & 2 or combo of 3D 510 & 520. I would encourage you to spend the $200 to get a NEX paint reader. It’ll be super handy and it’ll make you look more professional to your clients when you can tell them how thick their paint is and how far you can correct.

With a quality DA polisher and foam pads, paint correction isn't hard and it's really difficult to screw it up I think. If you use wool pads that takes more skill. That being said, if you're nervous about doing it you might try doing it on your own vehicle or a car that someone doesn't care about as much. Maybe an older car with faded paint that can really only improve if you get it done right, but won't really change much how it looks if you screw it up. First time I did it was my own vehicle and it turned out great. If you screw up your own vehicle it sucks, but it's better than learning on a customer's car that matters. When I have time I'm going to paint correct my old 2001 pickup. Not because I really care about the paint on it, but more to demonstrate my abilities and add to my portfolio.

Go bro keep up. Let me send you some advice. 1. Be careful what advices you receive on comments try to filter them...even mine. 2. In polishing continue what you are doing have patience step by step you will build your skills and confidence by time, first some enchantments and AIOs .....later 1 steps...later 2 steps...later coatings .... Don't try to sell something you are not familiar yet ... step by step you will do it. 3. Essence is great ,but.. expensive and has protection already . If you want to top it with other wax don't use ipa wipe down because you wasting time by removing the protection you already add it before you top it. You will save much time and product. If you want bare Paint to add protection dont use products with build in protection, but true polishes or compounds ...then use ipa to remove residue and apply your protection of choice. 4. Dont buy in the future very expensive tools, specially polishers expecting better results. Free to ask anything i can help

Well, I’m still learning. But for the glass enhancement that I did. Which does not do any form of correcting. Are used speed 4. And I only used the white pads by CarPro. So I’m using the least aggressive pads. And to my knowledge you can use whatever pad you want with compound. Hope this helps. Please do some of your own research.

Hey Ralph, happy to help. It’s painters tape. It’s just a lightweight tape. Any color, 1 inch. Tape off badges tape off rubber plastic trim, you can tape off the lights. The mirrors. Anything that is not paint and they could possibly get touched or overlapped when you were doing a polish

Regarding equipment, towels, applicators,and product. Buy the best you can afford. Starting out money is tight, but as you get more business, invest some $ into upgrading your stuff. A cheap towel can ruin your hard work. A cheap polish will do the same. I would recommend you watch Pan the Organizer channel. He tests a lot of products and is very professional and knows what he’s doing, and what he talks about. Give the customer quality work, don’t half ass anything and your business will grow.

I went from charging 150 to 200 a car to now 500 to 1000 per car. Don't be afraid to charge Lastly do what you say you are going to do and communicate with your customers. The skill of detailing will follow with time. Cheers from connecticut

Well "Paint Enhancement" has several levels due to the paint defects, vehicle color and clear coat type ( soft, normal, hard). I offer 3 levels of Paint Enhancement for Black Vehicles because Black Vehicles are a double edge sword. My Level 1 Paint Polishing starts at $750 which is not Paint Correction but it's just to Enhance the Paint. Using a "Decon Iron Remover" is a waste of time and money 90% of the time if you are going to Clay it anyways. I'm just north of you in Washington State btw.
