How is exotic car detailing different from a regular detail?
Exotic car detailing starts with inspection and paint measurement, uses the least aggressive correction that works, and adapts to delicate surfaces like matte paint, exposed carbon, and Alcantara. A regular detail often applies the same package to every car.
Can matte paint be polished?
No. Polishing matte or satin paint creates shiny spots that can't be reversed. Matte finishes need dedicated cleaners and careful washing, and damage usually means a panel repaint or replacement film.
How often should a supercar have paint correction?
Rarely, ideally once or twice in the car's life. Each correction removes clear coat, so the better approach is a careful correction followed by protection and safe washing to keep defects from returning.
