My Process: From Hand Wash to Enhanced Protection 

Not Your Average Hand Wash 

This service is designed to give your vehicle a meticulous hand wash that goes far beyond what you'd find at a traditional car wash. Here’s the step-by-step process: 

  • Stripping off old tire shine to prep the tires for a new tire dressing sealant 

  • Cleaning the wheel wells to remove dirt and debris 

  • Thoroughly cleaning the wheel face and barrels to remove brake dust 

  • Pre-washing the vehicle with foam to lift and loosen contaminants, reducing the chances of introducing swirl marks 

  • Hand washing using a car shampoo that leaves your paint glossy and free of grime 

  • Applying short-term protection to safeguard your paint from bird droppings and road debris 

  • Cleaning all glass surfaces for a streak-free finish

Wash and Protect 

A step up from Not Your Average Hand Wash, Wash and Protect includes all the steps above, plus additional measures to ensure long-lasting protection and shine: 

  • Utilizing chemical and mechanical decontamination to remove iron particles from the paint 

  • Applying a 1-year graphene sealant for superior paint protection against contaminants and road debris 

  • This sealant also helps maintain a glossy finish for longer, making it easier to keep your vehicle clean 

With these processes, your vehicle will be fully prepped for everyday driving, ensuring both cleanliness and protection.

Exterior detailing isn’t just about making your car look good for a day. It’s about protecting your investment and ensuring that it stays in the best condition possible for years to come. Regular detailing can help maintain the value of your vehicle by protecting it from the long-term effects of exposure to the elements. 

Why Choose Exterior Detailing? Debunking Myths & Adding Value

While many believe a good wash is enough, a professional detail service like mine offers more than just surface-level cleaning. It gets deep into every crevice, removing contaminants that can damage your car’s paint over time. By opting for a detail, you’re not only improving the look of your car but also adding layers of protection that will keep your paint, tires, and wheels in great condition.

However, it’s important to recognize that no detailing service is a one-time, permanent solution. Just like ceramic coatings, regular exterior detailing needs to be maintained to continue offering protection. Neglecting to maintain your vehicle will allow contaminants to build up and reduce the efficacy of your previous detail.
