Division — Paint, reflection and precision
Automotive
Paint correction, ceramic coatings and wheel restoration for every vehicle, from daily drivers to exotics.
Overview
Automotive is where Altus Finishes started, in the Nanaimo shop. The same measured process applies whether it's a daily driver, a family SUV or a collector exotic — what a vehicle is worth doesn't change how it's treated once it's in the shop.
Services
What Automotive covers
Scopes are built per project. These are the categories of work the studio is set up to perform.
Paint reconditioning & correction
Scratches, chips, swirl marks, oxidation and etching addressed through buffing, polishing and staged machine correction guided by paint-depth readings.
Learn moreCeramic coatings
A full paint correction to prepare the surface, then a ceramic coating for lasting protection and shine. The system we use carries a manufacturer rating of up to ten years under proper care — a product rating, not an unconditional Altus warranty.
Learn moreWheel & rim restoration
Curb rash, poor previous paint and other cosmetic wheel damage restored to a clean, finished look. Cosmetic restoration, not structural wheel repair.
