1. A surface treatment system comprising:
a storage configured to store reference images of a surface of a treatment target member, the reference images capturing a plurality of different final target treatment states of the surface of the treatment target member;
a surface treater configured to perform a surface treatment on the surface of the treatment target member based on a selection instruction received from a user, the selection instruction indicating a selected final target treatment state from the plurality of different final target treatment states;
an image recorder configured to capture an image of the surface of the treatment target member being treated by the surface treater;
a comparer configured to obtain a correlation coefficient between the reference image for the selected final target treatment state stored in the storage and the image captured by the image recorder; and
a controller configured to stop the surface treatment performed by the surface treater in response to the correlation coefficient obtained by the comparer reaching a set value.
