Paint Protection helps to protect your car’s paint from minor
This Ferrari 458 came into our O’Connor workshop for paint protection to enhance gloss and preserve the finish.
While the original video from this job is no longer available, the focus here is on the process and final result — which is what ultimately matters.
High-performance vehicles like Ferrari require proper preparation before any protection is applied, especially under Perth driving conditions.
This is especially important for vehicles across Perth where regular washing and driving conditions can quickly introduce defects.
Paint correction creates the gloss by refining the surface.
Coatings can slightly enhance the finish and add a deeper, wetter look, but their main role is to preserve the result rather than create it.
Without correcting the surface first, any paint protection applied will only lock in defects. This is why proper preparation is critical to achieving a true high-gloss finish.
At the time, this vehicle received a professional-grade coating system. While coating technology has evolved since then, the core principle remains the same — preparation is everything.
AutoFX WA is based in O’Connor within the City of Fremantle, with customers travelling from across Perth for ceramic coating, paint correction and paint protection film.
