When we started JR Automotive we had a similar car with us for a correction and protection package, so this project was a real throw back. Get ready, buckle up, as we rediscover the Chrysler 300C Hemi and why it still commands attention after all these years!

The Process of Paint Correction

To start the process of paint correction on the Chrysler 300C estate, with the impressive Hemi engine, we need to follow a few key steps. Firstly, to wash and dry the car thoroughly, removing any dirt or debris that may be on the surface. Next, we use a clay bar to remove any contaminants that are embedded in the paintwork. After that, we used cutting compound to remove swirl marks, scratches, or other imperfections in the paint. Once this correction step has been completed, we then use a finishing polishing compound to restore the shine and gloss to the paint. 

After the paint correction process is complete, we move into the stages to prepare the surface for the ceramic coating. This involves using a surface preparation solution to remove any remaining oils or contaminants from the paint. Once the surface is clean and dry, we can then apply the ceramic coating. We follow a strict process when applying the ceramic coating, to ensure maximum coverage and protection. Once the coating has been applied, it is cured indoors before being exposed to the elements. This is but one of the many crucial steps to ensure the coating provides the expect durability.
