About Obsidian

Obsessed With the Last Ten Percent

Obsidian is a dedicated paint-correction and coating studio — not a wash bay. For twelve years we've specialized in the slow, exacting work most shops skip: measuring paint depth, refining under controlled lighting, and chasing the last ten percent of clarity that turns good paint into glass. Every car gets one technician, a documented process, and a finish you can see your reflection in.

  • Dedicated correction studio, not a wash bay
  • One technician per car
  • Paint-depth measured and documented
  • Refined under controlled lighting
Why It Matters

Most 'Detailing' Just Hides the Problem

Glaze and quick wax fill swirls for a week. Correction removes them for good.

We Diagnose First

Paint-depth readings and lighting inspection before a pad ever touches the car.

Correction, Not Concealment

Defects are leveled and removed — not filled to reappear after the next wash.

Then We Protect

Ceramic or film locks in the corrected finish so the work actually lasts.

Documented Results

Before-and-after under the same lights, so you see exactly what changed.

The Process

How We Build a Glass Finish

01

Decontaminate

Wash, clay, and chemically decontaminate so the surface is truly bare.

02

Measure & Test

Paint-depth readings and test spots set a safe, effective correction plan.

03

Correct in Stages

Compound and refine under lighting until defects are genuinely gone.

04

Coat & Protect

Ceramic or PPF seals the finish for years of easy-clean gloss.

The Obsidian Difference

Reflections So Sharp They Look Wet

Corrected paint doesn't just look cleaner — it looks deeper. When swirls and haze are truly removed, light bounces back undisturbed, and the color gains a clarity that photographs can barely capture. That mirror-sharp, almost-liquid reflection is the whole point of paint correction, and it's what every car leaves our studio with.

  • True defect removal, not filler
  • Mirror-sharp, wet-look clarity
  • Refined under controlled lighting
  • A finish that photographs can't fake
From Our Clients

Enthusiasts Who Don't Compromise

I brought in a black GT-R covered in swirls and holograms. Obsidian's multi-stage correction made it look wet — deeper than the day it left the factory. Genuinely flawless work.
Andre WhitlockBellevue
Had them ceramic coat my new Bronco before it ever saw rain. The water sheets off, washing takes minutes, and the gloss is unreal. The five-year warranty sealed it for me.
Reese DonovanBallard
PPF on the full front end of my Porsche — the install is invisible and the edges are wrapped perfectly. These are real craftspeople, not a quick-detail shop. Worth the wait.

Questions

Paint Correction & Coating, Explained

What's the difference between correction and a polish?

A quick polish or glaze often fills swirls temporarily — they return after a wash or two. Multi-stage correction actually levels and removes the defects, so the clarity is permanent until new damage occurs.

Do I need a ceramic coating after correction?

It's strongly recommended. Correction restores the finish; a ceramic coating or PPF protects that work, adds gloss, and makes the car far easier to keep clean. Otherwise swirls simply start over.

How long does the work take?

A single-stage correction with a coating is usually 1–2 days; multi-stage correction or full PPF can take longer. We give you an exact timeline at consultation — we never rush a finish.

How long does a ceramic coating last?

Our coatings carry up to a five-year warranty with proper maintenance. We'll show you a simple wash routine that keeps the hydrophobic, glossy finish performing for years.

Is paint protection film worth it?

For high-impact areas — bumpers, hoods, mirrors — absolutely. PPF absorbs rock chips and scratches that would otherwise reach your paint, and a quality install is virtually invisible.
