What it is

What car retouching covers.

Our editors work on background replacement or removal, lot clutter and reflection cleanup, glare reduction on paint and glass, sky replacement for exterior shots, tyre and wheel shine, license plate removal (for privacy), color correction, and full paint-panel retouching for catalog-grade imagery.

We understand that car paint is one of the most reflective and challenging surfaces to edit — our team has dedicated automotive editing experience, not just general Photoshop skills.

Our process

How Car Retouch editing works.

The same four steps for a 2-image trial or a 5,000-image seasonal batch.

01

Send your raw images

Upload through the order form or share a Drive/Dropbox link — no software or account needed on your end.

02

We assess each image

An editor reviews every photo individually and applies the right technique — not a one-size-fits-all batch filter.

03

Manual car retouch editing

Every edit is done by hand by a trained editor — the same standard whether it's your first trial image or your thousandth order.

04

Review & download

Get your edited files back in 24–48h, in the format you need, with one revision round included.

FAQ

Questions about Car Retouch.

Can you process high volumes for a dealership?+

Yes — we work with dealerships sending 50–500 vehicle images per week. Contact us for a volume rate.

What sky replacement options do you offer?+

We have a library of sky options — blue sky and cloud, golden hour, overcast for even lighting, or dramatic dusk. You can specify or leave it to us.

Do you remove reflections of the photographer?+

Yes — photographer reflections in windows and panels are a standard part of the retouching pass.

Can you change the car color?+

We offer color change as a separate service — see the Color Change service page. It's more complex on metallic paint and is priced separately.
