What a cut and polish actually is

Not a correction. A genuine reset.

A controlled single-stage machine polish that improves the overall finish rather than chasing every defect. It restores gloss, reduces haze and mild oxidation, and makes tired paint look properly cared for again.

01
It's about the overall finishCleaner, brighter paint with stronger gloss and clarity, across every painted panel.
02
It isn't sold as defect removalLight marks typically improve 30 to 40 percent. Real swirls and scratches belong in paint correction.
03
We stop where the service should stopIf the paint needs more, we tell you, rather than pretending a lighter polish can do a correction's job.
What changes

Less tired. More depth. Proper gloss again.

Machine refinement · Corbould Park

Gloss is earned.

The polish is only one part of the result. Proper washing, decontamination and controlled machine work let the finish come back cleanly instead of simply masking the problem.

The process

Clean it. Refine it. Finish it properly.

01

Wash

A thorough exterior wash to remove loose dirt before any machine work.

02

Decontaminate

Iron fallout and bonded contamination removed. We never polish contaminated paint.

03

Machine polish

A single stage on a firm pad, under studio lighting, across every painted panel.

04

Protect

A sealant goes on before handover, protecting the fresh finish for several months.

Want it to last longer?

Refresh it now. Or protect it for years.

Cut & Polish finishes with a sealant that lasts months. For long-term protection, easier washing and stronger chemical resistance, step up to a Gtechniq ceramic package, which includes two-stage correction.

Cut & Polish questions

Straight answers.

Cut & Polish is a single-stage gloss enhancement that typically improves light surface marks by 30 to 40 percent. Paint Correction is built around defect removal: single stage typically achieves 50 to 65 percent and multi-stage 80 to 90 percent. If swirls or scratches are the main problem, correction is the right choice.

$399 for a standard car or sedan, $449 for SUVs, utes and 4WDs, and $499 for oversized vehicles such as the RAM and Silverado. Vans and commercial vehicles are quoted on inspection. Weekend bookings carry a surcharge.

Very light marks often improve, but scratch removal isn't the purpose of this service. Deeper swirls, scratches and stone chips won't be addressed. If those are the main issue, we'll recommend Paint Correction.

Around 5 hours for a standard car, 5.5 hours for SUVs, utes and 4WDs, and 6 hours for oversized vehicles, so most cars are dropped off and collected the same day.

Yes. A protective sealant is applied after polishing and lasts several months with proper care. For long-term protection, a Gtechniq ceramic coating package is the better option.

Yes, when done correctly. Any polishing removes a very small amount of clear coat, so we use a level of cut suited to the paint and the result being targeted, on decontaminated paint under controlled studio lighting.
