Processes we take to fix/maintain your vehicle
Cape Town’s combination of strong UV, coastal salt air, and regular driving takes a toll on vehicle paint and interiors.
At The Lott we specialise in mobile detailing that addresses these exact challenges.
All work is performed at your location. You don’t need to drop the car off or wait at a workshop. We arrive fully equipped and leave your vehicle looking and feeling significantly better than when we arrived.

Multi-Stage Paint Correction
Machine polishing that safely removes swirl marks, scratches and dullness to restore clarity, depth and gloss.
What problems it solves
How we solve it
Why choose this package?
-
Swirls & Wash Marring: Micro-scratches and spiderwebbing caused by automatic car washes and improper washing techniques
-
Loss of Depth & Gloss: Dull, flat, and lifeless paintwork that has lost its original factory clarity and shine
-
Holograms & Surface Defects: Light-to-moderate scratches, buffer trails, and glare distortions visible in direct sunlight
-
UV Oxidation & Etching: Embedded mineral water spots, clear coat hazing, and damage from Cape Town’s coastal salt air
-
Persistent Surface Wear: Tired, weathered paint that remains flat and unpresentable even after a thorough hand wash
Swirl & Scratch Removal: Multi-stage machine polishing to safely eliminate wash marring and fine scratch lines
Gloss & Clarity Restoration: Precision polishing that restores rich color depth, mirror-like reflection, and intense shine
Defect & Hologram Correction: Careful clear coat refinement to erase buffer trails, light scratches, and optical distortion
Oxidation & Etching Treatment: Specialized compounds that level out embedded UV damage, salt air haze, and mineral etching
Permanent Finish Transformation: True paint correction that physically removes defects rather than temporarily masking them, restoring a genuine showroom finish
Paint correction is the single most effective way to make older or neglected paint look dramatically better. It is also the essential preparation step before ceramic coating, applying a coating over uncorrected paint simply locks in the existing defects. If your car looks swirled or flat in sunlight, this is the service that will transform it.
Paint correction starts from R1 950 depending on the stage required and vehicle size.
Ceramic Coating Packages
A durable, hydrophobic protective layer that bonds to your paint and keeps it looking better for longer.
What problems it solves
How we solve it
Why choose this package?
UV Fading & Paint Oxidation: Accelerated clear coat degradation and color fading caused by Cape Town’s intense sunlight and heat
Coastal Salt Air Contamination: Airborne sea salt, moisture, and coastal fallout that steadily corrode unsealed paint surfaces over time
Chemical & Etching Damage: Permanent paint etching and stubborn staining from bird droppings, tree sap, and mineral-heavy water spots
Rapid Dirt Accumulation: Surface grime and road film quickly clinging to unprotected panels, causing the car to look dirty shortly after washing
Frequent Maintenance Burden: Constant need for traditional waxing, sealing, and re-polishing just to maintain basic gloss and minimal protection
Extreme UV & Thermal Defense: Advanced ceramic barrier that blocks harmful ultraviolet radiation to permanently prevent clear coat fading and oxidation
Corrosion & Salt Air Shield: Hardened hydrophobic coat that isolates your paintwork from aggressive coastal salt mist and environmental fallout
High Chemical & Etching Resistance: Tough surface barrier that neutralizes acidic bird droppings, tree sap, and mineral deposits before they etch the clear coat
Self-Cleaning Hydrophobic Finish: Ultra-slick nano-technology that repels water, mud, and road grime so your car stays clean for significantly longer periods
Multi-Year Durable Protection: Long-lasting liquid quartz coating that eliminates the need for temporary waxes, providing years of deep gloss and defense
Ceramic coating is the best long-term investment for maintaining your vehicle’s appearance in Cape Town conditions. It delivers superior gloss, stronger protection and lower maintenance compared to traditional wax or sealant. Available in different durability levels so you can choose the protection that matches how long you plan to keep the vehicle.
Ceramic Coating Packages start from R2 450 depending on the durability option and vehicle size.
