Does paint correction remove all scratches?
Not always. Polishing removes or reduces defects that sit in the clear coat. Scratches that go through it usually need paintwork instead. A good detailer inspects the paint first and tells you what to expect.
Should paint correction come before a ceramic coating?
Often, because a coating seals in whatever finish is under it. The scope can range from a light polish to several stages, so ask which one is quoted and what it includes.
