Wash and wax; Add shine and protection to your paint

Exterior auto detailing is a meticulous and comprehensive process designed to enhance and preserve the appearance of a vehicle’s exterior. This process involves several steps and specialized techniques to clean, restore, and protect the vehicle's paint, trim, wheels, windows, and other exterior components. Here’s an overview of what an exterior wash and wax service typically includes:

• Pre-rinse: The detailer begins by rinsing the car to remove loose dirt and debris.
• Hand wash: Using a high-quality car shampoo and microfiber wash mitts, the vehicle is carefully washed to avoid scratches. Special attention is given to areas like the wheel wells, door jambs, and underbody.

• Clay bar treatment: A clay bar is used to remove bonded contaminants such as tree sap, tar, and industrial fallout from the paint surface, leaving it smooth.
• Iron remover: This chemical treatment targets and dissolves embedded iron particles that can cause rust and paint damage.

• Sealant or wax application: A high-quality paint sealant or wax is applied to protect the paint from UV rays, contaminants, and oxidation. This layer also enhances the shine and hydrophobic properties of the paint.
• Ceramic coating (optional): For long-lasting protection, a ceramic coating can be applied. This provides a durable, high-gloss finish that can last several years.

• Cleaning: All exterior plastic and rubber trim are cleaned to remove any dirt or oxidation.
• Conditioning: A specialized product is applied to restore the color and protect against UV damage.

• Wheel cleaning: Wheels are cleaned using a dedicated wheel cleaner and brushes to remove brake dust and grime.
• Tire cleaning: Tires are scrubbed to remove old dressing and dirt.
• Tire dressing: A tire dressing is applied to enhance the appearance and protect the rubber from cracking and UV damage.
• Wheel protection: A wheel sealant can be applied to protect the finish and make future cleaning easier.

• Glass cleaning: All windows and mirrors are cleaned with a streak-free glass cleaner.
• Chrome polishing: Chrome surfaces are polished to remove oxidation and restore shine.

• Inspection: The vehicle is inspected to ensure all areas have been addressed and the finish is flawless.
• Touch-ups: Any missed spots or minor imperfections are corrected.

• Enhanced appearance: Detailing restores the vehicle’s exterior to a like-new condition, improving its overall look.
• Protection: Proper detailing protects the paint and other exterior components from environmental damage.

Exterior auto detailing is an investment in your vehicle's appearance and longevity, ensuring it remains in top condition for years to come.
