Precision Paint Correction. No Guesswork.
Every vehicle tells a story through its paint. We read it with gauges, correct it by hand, and protect it with Revivify. No shortcuts. No guesswork. All paint correction services are performed at our Detail Studio & Lab in Middletown, DE — drop-off only.
We assess first
We take the time to understand the vehicle's life — we learn its story, look into its past, and give it a bright new future. We use a paint gauge to measure the depth we have to work with and inspect the surface with microscopic tools.
We correct precisely
Every vehicle, every painted surface, and every person is different. Paint is like a fingerprint — unique to the vehicle it is on. We review all information to determine the ideal machine, pad, and product combination for the most beautiful outcome.
We protect permanently
Revivify coating seals the corrected surface. Your paint stays protected with self-healing technology. That's the Dynamite Difference.
Bare Metal
The foundation. Once damage reaches here, paint correction cannot help — a repaint is required.
Primer
Adhesion layer. Damage here cannot be corrected with polishing.
Base Coat
Your vehicle's color. Damage here can be improved but not fully eliminated through correction.
Clear Coat
The layer paint correction works on. Swirl marks, oxidation, and surface scratches are mostly contained here and can usually be removed.
Correction levels matched to damage
We match the correction to the damage, not the other way around. Three levels of precision.
1-Step Correction
Addresses minor swirls, marring, and light scratches. We do not offer a 1-step correction with a Revivify Coating. At minimum for Revivify, we do a 1-step correction followed by a polish (2-step).
2-Step Correction
Addresses moderate swirls, marring, and scratches. We will not perform a 2-step correction without installing a Revivify Protective Coating. We will not deliver a thinner clear coat without protecting it.
3-Step Correction
Addresses heavy scratches, swirls, and marring. Minimum 8 hours required. Estimate required.
Enhancement versus correction
Enhancement brings shine to good paint. Correction fixes damaged paint. One polishes. One restores.
Enhancement
Same as a 1-step correction, but uses a polish with minor abrasives and ceramic qualities that provides hydrophobic beading. Lasts up to 9 months. Also available with a Revivify Sealant for up to 1-year protection.
Correction
Removes swirls, scratches, and oxidation. Restores the surface underneath. No wax — only technology and science for maximum protection and paint shine.
How we repair scratches, step by step
Starting at $200 per panel. Minimum 8 hours required. Estimate required. Bring the vehicle in as soon as possible.
Assess
Paint depth gauge measures clear coat thickness and scratch penetration depth.
Prep
Wet sanding if necessary. Basecoat applied in multiple layers — each must fully dry before the next.
Apply
Clear coat application over the repaired area. Surface preparation removes contaminants and creates the ideal foundation.
Polish & Protect
Paint correction to smooth and blend the area. Revivify Coating or Sealant recommended over the repaired area for lasting protection.
Why Revivify after correction
Part of the Dynamite Difference is to research products, science, and technology to provide the best for our clients. During our research, we learned that ceramics have been watered down and white-labeled to a level that has diminished their benefits. Then we found Revivify. There is nothing else like their product technology. We are the only certified Revivify installers in the State of Delaware.
