Michigan roads are tough on your paint. Road salt, automatic car washes, tree sap, and everyday driving all team up to leave behind swirls, light scratches, and dull, tired paint. If your vehicle doesn’t quite “glow” like it used to, the Milnes Ford Body Shop in Lapeer has a simple, upfront way to bring that shine back.

We’ve created clear body shop pricing so you know exactly what to expect before you hand over the keys.


Upfront Pricing for Paint Correction

All services are “starting at” prices and may vary based on your vehicle size and paint condition, but here’s the core menu you can count on:

  • Touch Up Spot Correction – Starting at $75
    Perfect when you have a few small chips, nicks, or isolated scratches that need attention without a full correction service.
  • Full Correction – Small Vehicle – Starting at $300 ★ Best Value
    Ideal for compact cars and smaller coupes or sedans that need an overall refresh.
  • Full Correction – Mid-Size Vehicle – Starting at $400 ★ Best Value
    A great option for most sedans, crossovers, and small SUVs that see daily use and regular automatic washes.
  • Full Correction – Truck / Large SUV – Starting at $450+ ★ Best Value
    Designed for full-size trucks and larger SUVs with more surface area and more exposure to the elements.
  • Full Clay Bar Treatment (Spot Removal Only – Orange Specks) – Starting at $150
    Targets stubborn contaminants like orange specks and bonded fallout that washing alone can’t remove.

*See dealer for details. Expires 2/28/2026


What Does “Full Correction” Include?

When you choose a Full Correction service at Milnes Ford, you’re getting more than a quick polish. Our team focuses on restoring the look of your paint and improving the overall appearance of your vehicle.

Full Correction Includes:

  • ✔ Swirl mark reduction
  • ✔ Light scratch correction
  • ✔ Paint touch-ups in problem areas
  • ✔ Treatment for dull or faded paint

The result is a deeper gloss, better reflections, and a finish that looks closer to the way it did when your vehicle was new.


When Is a Clay Bar Treatment the Right Choice?

Sometimes your paint feels rough even after a wash, or you see tiny orange specks on light-colored vehicles. That’s usually embedded contamination—things like rail dust, industrial fallout, or stubborn road debris.

Our Full Clay Bar Treatment is designed for spot removal of orange specks and bonded contaminants. It’s a smart choice when:

  • Washing no longer leaves the paint feeling smooth
  • You’re preparing for waxing, ceramic coating, or selling your vehicle
  • You want to improve gloss and smoothness without a full correction

Clay bar work helps create a cleaner surface so any additional detailing steps are more effective.


Why Choose Milnes Ford for Paint & Body Work?

At Milnes Ford in Lapeer, we understand that your vehicle is both transportation and a personal investment. When you trust our body shop with your paint correction work, you get:

  • clear pricing structure with services starting at the amounts listed above
  • A team that works on Ford vehicles every day (and can handle many other makes and models as well)
  • Honest recommendations on whether you need simple touch-up work, a full correction, or a clay bar treatment
  • The option to get a custom estimate if your vehicle needs something more tailored

We road test and clean our vehicles for sales customers, and we bring that same pride and attention to detail to our body shop work.


How to Get a Custom Estimate

Because every vehicle’s paint tells a different story, final pricing can vary based on:

  • Vehicle size
  • Overall paint condition
  • Number and severity of scratches or problem areas

The easiest next step is to let our body shop take a look in person.

Visit or Contact Us:

Milnes Ford, Inc.

Lapeer, MI 48446
Sales & Body Shop: 810-667-5000

Stop by, call to schedule a visit, or contact us through the website to request a custom paint correction estimate. We’ll walk around your vehicle with you, explain your options in plain language, and help you choose the level of service that makes the most sense for your budget and your goals.


If your vehicle’s finish is starting to look tired, you don’t have to live with dull, swirled paint. The Milnes Ford Body Shop Pricing menu makes it simple to pick a service, restore your shine, and feel good about your vehicle again.
