Paint Correction · Haumoana
Salt, sand and sun leave Haumoana paint hazy and swirled. Niah and Ben inspect your car in person and give you an honest quote, then machine polish the paint on your driveway.
The Package
No two paint jobs need the same amount of work, so correction is quoted on your vehicle. Send a few photos with your enquiry and Niah or Ben will tell you what is realistic.
Machine polishing that takes the swirls and dullness out of your paint, rather than filling them for a week.
Custom Quote
Set by your paint, quoted by Niah or Ben.
Related Add-Ons
Correction pairs best with protection. Niah or Ben can quote both together.
What’s Included
The paint is looked over before anything starts, so you know what can and cannot come out.
Swirls, haze and wash marks cut back with a machine polisher, a little at a time.
The finish is refined so it reflects cleanly instead of looking hazy in the sun.
Corrected paint is the right base for a ceramic coating, if you want to keep it that way.
Why Bay For Paint Correction
Haumoana is about as coastal as it gets, with homes sitting along the gravel beach. Salt and fine sand get rubbed across the panels every time the car is wiped, and that leaves the swirls and haze you see in direct sun. Niah and Ben look at the paint with you, explain honestly what machine polishing can achieve, and quote it for that car. Then they do the work on your driveway.
Many Haumoana cars live outside within reach of the sea for years, and paint like that often carries layers of swirls, haze and dull patches. Before anything is polished, Niah and Ben go over the paint with you and tell you what correction will genuinely improve. The quote is for that car, and if you want it coated after, corrected paint is the right base.
How Haumoana Is Served
Niah and Ben come to your home in Haumoana, whether you are close to the beach or a few streets back from it. They work in your driveway, and you hear back from Niah or Ben first to arrange a time that suits you.
Living On The Cape Coast
Gravel from the beach comes in on shoes and gear, and small stones end up under the seats and in the door pockets. Fine sand follows, working into the carpet where it wears the fibres.
Onshore wind lifts salt spray off the beach and over the houses behind it. It dries on paint, glass and chrome as a dull film, and the Hawke's Bay sun bakes it on.
This shoreline has been retreating for decades, and in big storms the sea has reached homes along the beach crest. After rough weather, salt coats everything nearby and is worth washing off promptly.
01
Niah or Ben tells you what correction can realistically achieve on your car before it is booked, not after.
02
No need to leave the car anywhere. The work happens on your driveway or at your workplace.
03
Around five years of detailing experience each, and two people on the job.
04
Bay also applies professional ceramic coatings, so freshly corrected paint can be protected at the same visit.
How Correction Works
Drag the slider to machine polish the panel. Correction removes a fine layer of clear coat so the swirls go with it.
Swirls and wash marks are tiny valleys in the clear coat. They scatter light, which is why the paint looks dull even when it is clean.
Illustration, not to scale. Scratches that go through the clear coat cannot be polished out, and Niah or Ben checks the paint before any correction is quoted.
