DETAILING
Auto detailing in Farmington Hills — 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.
The decon wash
What the decon wash actually does.
A regular wash takes off what's sitting on the paint. A decon wash goes after what's bonded to it — the tar, rail dust, and hard water that start bonding the moment a car hits the road.
It's two steps past the wash: a clay bar lifts the bonded grit off the clear coat instead of grinding it in, and an iron decon goes after the contaminants stuck in the paint.
The difference is a finish that looks deeper because nothing is sitting in it — clean paint, not just a clean-looking car. It's also the state the rest of our work needs the paint in: this is the clean a correction or a coating sits on top of.
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.
Common questions
Detailing, asked straight.
What's included in a full interior detail?
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, without the harsh dressings that leave everything greasy and smelling of chemicals. It's $300 for a coupe, $325 for a sedan, $350 for an SUV or truck.
What's included in the exterior detail?
The exterior detail is the decon wash — clay bar + iron decon, $250. The paint, glass, and wheels come back genuinely clean: the finish looks deeper, the glass is clear, and the wheels are done, not just rinsed.
What is a decon wash?
A wash that removes what's bonded to the paint, not just what's sitting on it. The clay bar lifts the bonded grit off the clear coat; the iron decon goes after the contaminants stuck in the paint — what an ordinary wash leaves behind.
Should I get a detail before a ceramic coating or paint correction?
That's the order we work in — this is the clean the rest of our work sits on top of. A coating only bonds properly to the freshest, smoothest surface, so the paint gets decontaminated — and corrected, if it needs it — before anything goes over it. Start at ceramic coating or paint correction and we'll tell you what the car actually needs.
Will a detail remove swirls or scratches?
No — a detail makes the car clean and right; it isn't paint repair. Deep scratches, etching, and the haze of old swirls are paint correction, a different job: one stage for light swirls and oxidation, two for heavier scratches. If that's what your paint needs, we'll tell you straight instead of selling you a detail that won't hold.
