Breakdown of Service

  1. Pre-treat & rinse: The process begins with a chemical spray and rinse to loosen and remove surface dirt and contaminants, ensuring the paint is ready for a safe agitation wash.

  2. Touch wash (agitation wash): A gentle touch wash follows, using a high-quality detail sponge, brush, and microfiber. And, safe washing techniques to cleanse the exterior without causing scratches or swirl marks.

  3. Tire/Wheel cleaning and dressing: Wheels and tires also receive delicate cleaning, targeting brake dust and road grime. The tires are then dressed with a non greasy conditioner that maintains a deep clean look and hydrates the rubber up to several weeks. The dressing also contains UV inhibitors to further protect the tires from damage caused by sun exposure.

  4. Gas cap area cleaning:The gas cap area is thoroughly cleaned, an often-overlooked spot where dirt and debris can accumulate.

  5. Paint decontamination: A perforated synthetic decontamination towel is used to safely remove embedded contaminants, leaving the paint ultra-smooth and ready for protection. The removal of such contaminates will also ensure a polish will not severely scratch the surface of the vehicle.

  6. Hand dry: The vehicle is then carefully hand dried with ultra soft Korean 70/30 microfiber towels to prevent water spots, streaks, and micro marring.

  7. Ceramic sealant on paint: A ceramic sealant is applied to the paint, providing a durable, glossy layer of protection that enhances shine and repels water and contaminants for 3-6 months.

  8. Door and Trunk Jamb cleaning: Door and trunk jambs are cleaned to remove grease, dirt, and buildup, ensuring every visible and hidden surface is spotless.

  9. Glass cleaning: All glass surfaces are meticulously cleaned and decontaminated for a streak-free finish, including special attention to windshield wipers to ensure dirt isn’t spread around when in use.
