RSK's paint correction in Klang is billed as part of a combined Polish & Ceramic Coating service starting from RM399, and takes 2 to 4 hours, depending on paint condition — machine polishing that removes swirl marks, light scratches, and oxidation haze using progressively finer stages. How much correction a car needs depends entirely on the current state of the paint.
Car paint correction and polishing removes swirl marks, light scratches, and oxidation haze from a vehicle's clear coat using progressively finer machine-polishing stages — a corrective process, not a coat of product, which is what separates it from a simple wax or spray polish. How much correction a car needs depends entirely on the current state of the paint.
Paint correction at RSK is offered as part of a combined Polish & Ceramic Coating service, starting from RM399 — the exact price depends on the level of correction needed and the vehicle's size.
What's Included
- One-step correction — a single polishing pass suited to light swirl marks and minor dullness.
- Two-step correction — a cutting compound removes medium scratches and swirls, then a finer polish restores the gloss.
- Three-step correction — the most intensive option, for deep scratches, etching, or heavy oxidation.
- Paint depth checks where needed, since correction removes a microscopic layer of clear coat each pass.
- Full decontamination (clay bar) before any polishing, so nothing gets dragged across the paint.
- Final inspection under proper lighting to confirm the correction level achieved.
Why Choose RSK
Correction is assessed per car, not sold as a single fixed package — a car with light swirls doesn't need the same aggressive process as one with deep scratches, and pushing every car through the same heavy correction wastes clear coat that can't be put back. [CONFIRM WITH RSK: specific compounds/pads used, years of experience] The correction stage needed depends more on the paint's actual condition than the vehicle type, but larger vehicles like SUVs, MPVs, and especially pickup trucks and lorries simply have more surface area to cover, extending the time required. [CONFIRM WITH RSK: exact pricing/timing by vehicle size]
FAQ
What's the difference between polishing and paint correction?
"Polishing" is often used loosely to mean any machine buffing, but true paint correction specifically targets and removes defects — swirls, scratches, oxidation — rather than just adding temporary shine on top of them.
Will paint correction remove all my car's scratches?
It removes swirl marks, light-to-medium scratches, and oxidation within the clear coat. Deep scratches through the clear coat into the base colour usually need touch-up paint, not correction alone.
Should I wax or ceramic coat after paint correction?
Yes — correction removes defects but doesn't protect the paint on its own. Wax or, for longer-lasting protection, ceramic coating should go on right after.
How do I know if my car needs one-step, two-step, or three-step correction?
An in-person assessment is the only reliable way to tell — guessing from a photo often under- or over-estimates what's actually needed.
