Who it is for
When the paint needs clarity, not heavy correction
Some cars have lost their crisp gloss through daily washing and exposure, but the defects are not severe enough to justify a 2-stage correction. The Enhancement Detail gives that paint a measured machine polish, removes the contamination that washing leaves behind and seals the improved finish.
Light wash marks that do not justify full correction
A car being prepared for sale or an important occasion
Owners moving up from a valet to their first machine polish
Paint that needs a gloss reset before regular maintenance
What is included
Inside the Enhancement Detail
The package is more than a quick pass with a polishing machine. Paint and wheels are decontaminated first so bonded dirt is not dragged across the finish. A single polishing stage restores gloss, then a sealant protects the result.

- 09Interior cleaned with a mild wipe-down
- 10Engine given a mild wipe-down
The process
Care at every stage
The work starts with a clean surface and a clear expectation. One polishing stage can improve gloss and light marks, but it is not sold as a substitute for correction where defects are deeper. We will tell you when the car needs the next package rather than overpromise the result.
- 01
Inspect and quote
The paint is checked to confirm that a 1-stage enhancement matches the condition and the finish you want.
- 02
Wash and prepare
A safe hand wash and detailed cleaning around emblems, grilles and trims remove loose dirt before decontamination.
- 03
Decontaminate
Clay plus bug, tar and iron removal leave the paint and wheels clean enough for controlled machine polishing.
- 04
Polish and seal
One machine stage restores gloss, then sealant is applied before the interior and engine wipe-downs are completed.
Good to know
Enhancement or paint correction?
Choose enhancement when the main problem is dullness, light wash marring or a finish that needs more depth. Choose 2-stage correction when direct sun reveals heavier swirls, buffer trails or scratches that need more cutting and refinement. Photos help with the first recommendation, but the paint still needs to be seen before the final quote.
- Enhancement uses one polishing stage and starts at R4,000.
- Paint Correction uses two stages and starts at R5,500.
- Both usually take 6-8 hours, depending on condition.
- The safer choice is based on the paint, not only the budget.
