DETAILING

A proper reset, done by hand.

The paint, glass, wheels, and interior brought back the careful way — not run through a tunnel and blown dry. This is the clean the rest of our work sits on top of.

We hand-wash and decontaminate the paint — a proper multi-stage process, safe wash media, wheels included.

The grit that a quick wash grinds into your clear coat gets lifted off instead, so we're cleaning the car, not scratching it. It comes back genuinely clean — the finish looks deeper, the glass is clear, and the wheels are done, not just rinsed.

Inside gets the same hand attention: surfaces, glass, and the spots a rushed job skips — vents, seams, door pockets.

Dust, film, and the everyday grime that dulls a cabin get pulled out, not pushed around. It feels like your car on delivery day again — without the harsh dressings that leave everything greasy and smelling of chemicals.

The honest version

What a detail is — and isn't.

A detail makes the car clean and right; it isn't permanent protection. It won't stop the next round of swirls from a bad wash, and it won't fix deep scratches or etching — that's paint correction, a different job. If your paint needs correcting rather than cleaning, we'll tell you straight instead of selling you a detail that won't hold. Think of this as the honest starting point, not a coating.
