Common questions about our exterior detailing service
A complete exterior detailing typically takes 3-5 hours depending on the size of your vehicle and its condition. For vehicles with significant paint correction needs, it may take longer. We prioritize quality over speed to ensure the best results.
For optimal protection and appearance, we recommend exterior detailing every 3-4 months. However, this can vary based on your driving conditions, where you park your vehicle, and your local climate. Vehicles frequently exposed to harsh elements may benefit from more regular detailing.
A car wash simply removes surface dirt and provides basic cleaning. Exterior detailing is a comprehensive process that includes deep cleaning, contaminant removal, paint correction, and protection. Detailing addresses issues below the surface and provides lasting results that a regular car wash cannot achieve.
Standard exterior detailing can remove light scratches, swirl marks, and minor imperfections. However, deep scratches that penetrate through the clear coat may require more intensive paint correction services or professional repainting. During our initial assessment, we'll let you know what results you can expect.
The results of exterior detailing typically last 2-3 months, depending on the products used and how you maintain your vehicle. Premium waxes and sealants can provide protection for up to 6 months. For longer-lasting protection, consider our ceramic coating services, which can last 1-5 years.
