Detaily.ca worth it over doing full paint correction myself?
I’ve got a black 2021 Golf R with the usual wash scratches and some deeper ones from the dealer. I have a Rupes polisher and pads, but honestly getting scared of burning edges or holograms.
Their full paint correction + ceramic starts at like $950–1100 depending on size.
Anyone gone to Detaily instead of DIYing and glad you did?

I was in the same boat with my black STI — every tiny scratch showed, and I was too nervous to chase the deeper ones with my own polisher. In the end I booked a full correction because I didn’t want to risk edges, trim staining, or holograms. Price was similar to what you mentioned, but the finish was leagues better than anything I’d managed at home. If you’re debating it, checking out detaily is worth it; I was genuinely relieved I didn’t DIY this time. Anyone else feel the same?
