1-Step Correction
A single machine polish that takes out light swirls, wash marks and haze, and brings the gloss back.
- Hand wash, clay bar and iron decon first
- One polishing stage, panel by panel
- Best for newer or well-kept paint
Car-wash swirls, haze and light scratches machine-polished out of the clear coat, not filled in with wax that washes away. 1-Step and 2-Step correction come to your driveway across South Colorado Springs and the Broadmoor area. Inspected under the light first, so you only pay for the level your paint needs.
Swirls and haze polished out, not covered up. 1-Step and 2-Step done in your driveway. From $399.

Every job starts with your paint under direct light. We show you the swirls, then recommend the level that fixes them, not the most expensive one by default. No deposit, and you pay after.
A single machine polish that takes out light swirls, wash marks and haze, and brings the gloss back.
A compound pass, then a finishing polish. Takes out moderate swirls and light scratches for deeper gloss.
Heavy compound, refining and finishing passes for the most gloss you can get without repainting.
Not sure which level? Send a photo of a panel in direct sun and we’ll tell you, even when the answer is the cheaper one.
Most swirls live in the top of the clear coat, put there by car washes, dirty mitts and dry towels. Correction removes them instead of hiding them under glaze.

The spider-web scratches you see in the sun. Half this hood is corrected, half isn’t.

Black trucks show every wash mark. Same door, before and after.


Correction brings depth back to reds, blacks and stripes.


Whatever is on the paint gets locked under a coating, so it comes out first.

F-150s, Silverados, Rams, Tacomas and 4Runners. Big panels, same careful process.
One honest limit: a scratch that goes through the clear coat can’t be polished out at any level. We’ll tell you before we start, not after.
The same process on a Tacoma as on a Porsche. The prep is where most of the result comes from.

Every panel under direct light, so we see the damage you’re seeing and pick the right level.

Hand wash, clay bar and iron decontamination, so nothing gets ground into the paint.

1, 2 or 3 polishing stages, worked panel by panel and checked between passes.

A last look under the light with you, then protection so it stays that way.


1-Step and 2-Step correction are done in your driveway, with our own water, power and lighting. The Advanced 3-Step is usually better in controlled light, where sun and wind can’t work against the polish, and we’ll tell you when that’s the case.
Dana and his team ST6 Detailer’s are wonderful! They did an excellent job on my tundra with paint correction and ceramic coating. I highly recommend them to anyone needing detailing!
I decided to protect my new car’s paint with a ceramic coating and did a lot of research before choosing ST6.
I was hesitant to spend money on detailing for my older daily driver, but WOW, was it worth it. The team at ST6 Auto Detailers did what I thought was impossible.
ST6 Detailers did an amazing job on my F250! Their mobile auto detailing service was super convenient — they came right to my location and made my truck look brand new.
Highly recommend ST6! Dana is your man if you want your vehicle detailed right and in a timely manner. Skip the others and go with this company. Got the full interior/exterior detail and I’m beyond satisfied.
I recently had my Mini Cooper detailed by ST6 Detailers, and I couldn’t be more impressed! Their mobile auto detail service was incredibly convenient — they came right to my home and got to work with professionalism and attention to detail.
Said a nine-year-old family SUV with kids and a large dog looked and smelled new again.
Solid work from these guys! They’ve done quite a few vehicles for me and my work and have had zero complaints or issues. Easy to work with, great communication, awesome pricing, and overall good dudes!
Reported a dramatic recovery after years of toddler and dog messes inside the Jeep.
Loved the transformation from a dog-hair-covered interior back into a car they enjoyed driving.
Dana is legit. I had a raccoon make a home in my boat. Needless to say it wreaked havoc. I took it to Dana, despite the nests it made, the garbage, urine, and awful smell, he turned this boat into something new.
Absolutely thrilled with the service at ST6 Auto Detailers! From start to finish, the team was professional, friendly, and incredibly detail-oriented.

Had your paint corrected by us? A Google review is the most useful thing you can send.

A ceramic coating locks in whatever is on the paint, swirls included. That’s why every Gtechniq coating we install starts with correction, and the correction is built into the coating price. If you’re coating the car, you don’t book correction separately.

3yrCorrection included. The smart first coating for a daily driver.
5yrBest valueCorrection included. For the car you plan to keep.
9yrIn-shop onlyCorrection included. Gtechniq’s installer-only flagship.
Coating the car? Every tier, every detail and the full Gtechniq lineup are on our ceramic coating page. Same crew, same phone number, correction already in the price.
A shot of a panel in direct sun shows us almost everything. Add the vehicle and your address, and we’ll reply with the level it needs, the real price and an open time.
Still unsure about your paint? Call (719) 517-7220 and talk to the people who’ll do the work.
In South Colorado Springs a 1-Step Correction starts at $399, a 2-Step at $599 and an Advanced 3-Step at $899. The level is set by what your paint needs, which we show you under direct light before any work starts.
Each level is more polishing stages and more time. A 1-Step is one machine polish for light swirls and haze. A 2-Step adds a compound pass before the finishing polish, for moderate swirls and light scratches. The Advanced 3-Step uses heavy compounding, refining and finishing passes for deeper scratches and heavy swirling.
Yes. 1-Step and 2-Step correction are done mobile, with our own water, power and inspection lighting. The Advanced 3-Step is usually recommended in controlled light, because sun and wind work against the polish, and we’ll tell you when that applies.
It removes swirls, haze, wash marks and light scratches that sit in the clear coat. A scratch deep enough to go through the clear coat can’t be polished out at any level, and we’ll point those out before we start.
If the swirls bother you every time the sun hits it, usually yes. Black and dark trucks show wash marks the most, and a 1-Step or 2-Step brings back the gloss without the price of a repaint. If you plan to sell soon, a detail may be all it needs, and we’ll say so.
Yes, and it’s already included. A coating locks in whatever is on the paint, so every Gtechniq coating we install starts with correction, built into the coating price. You don’t book it separately.
Platinum Exterior ($349) is an exterior detail that includes a light 1-step pass along with the wash, clay and a Gtechniq sealer. Paint with heavier swirling or oxidation needs the dedicated correction service, which spends the time each panel needs.
Most swirls are put there by washing. A safe hand wash like our $89 VIP Hand Wash, a monthly plan from $99, or a Gtechniq coating keeps corrected paint looking that way.
Pick a detail. No deposit, and you pay after the work is done.
