Automotive Detailing Steps

​

Interior Automotive Detailing

​

 

Floor Mat Removal and Cleanse

​

The process is initiated by removing the floor mats from the vehicle. The mats are cleaned according to the material they are made of. Mats that are made of rubber are cleaned by a scrubbing method, while mats that are made of carpet are steam cleaned. 

​

Blow Out Nooks and Crannies

​

Forced air is used to reach debris that are stuck in the crevices of the seats and other hard to reach areas

 

Thorough Vacuuming

 

The vehicle carpets are vacuumed to remove visible and invisible contaminants. 

​

Seat Cleansing

​

Cloth seats receive an eco-friendly pre-treatment cleaner to remove stubborn stains and help prepare the seat for scrubbing and steam extraction. This process leaves cloth seats looking as good as new.

​

Leather seats are treated with a dedicated leather cleaner.  This cleaner helps to address the most nefarious culprits of premature wear and tear: dirt and dust. Seats are scrubbed and a leather conditioner is applied to soften the leather, lubricate the fibers and reduce friction.

​

Alcantara seats are cleaned by dabbing a microfiber towel containing a mild cleaner to remove dirt and debris. Other, more aggressive methods of seat cleaning may damage the Alcantara. 

​

Steam Detailing of All Plastics

​

Steam is used to clean the plastic surfaces, cup holders and door panels, followed by protection with a water-based dressing.

 

Streak-Free Window Cleanse

 

Windows are cleaned using a special detergent to ensure a streak-free finish. 

​

Proper Carpet Extraction

​

A pre-treatment is applied to the vehicle's carpet before it is scrubbed thoroughly. Steam extraction is used to remove contaminants stuck deep within the fibers of the vehicle's carpets.

​

Steam cleaning introduces less moisture into the vehicle than traditional carpet extractors.

 

Exterior Automotive Detailing

 

The exterior of your vehicle is the first thing people see and is generally what can make or break the sale of your investment. The environment abuses your vehicle's clear coat a lot more than you'd think. Having the exterior detailed regularly will ensure the finish stays like new. Here's our process when detailing the exterior of your investment.

 

Hand Wash

​

A thorough multi-step wash using a two bucket wash system to remove dirt and debris from your vehicle's exterior.

 

Decontamination

 

The vehicle is decontaminated using a clay bar, iron, tar, mineral deposit remover, wax and grease-removing chemicals to ensure the clear coat is as clean as it can be.

​

Wheel and Tire Detailing

​

The vehicle wheels are cleaned using dedicated cleaners. The wheels are pre-treated, scrubbed and rinsed with a pressure washer. The tires are dressed with an acrylic dressing to ensure they are durable and last longer.

​

Engine Bay Detailing

​

The engine bay receives a cleansing using our signature waterless wash and steam. All the plastic in the engine bay is hydrated with a water-based dressing.

​

 

Paint Correction

​

Paint correction is the removal of imperfections in the paint that can be caused by acid rain, water spotting, tree sap, improper washing and/or machine polishing. This is done using the least aggressive method so that the least amount of paint is removed. Many brand new vehicles are in need of defect removal, especially on high production vehicles. This is not a quick process, as we work your investment's paint in 12"x12" areas at a time. We need to see the vehicle to give an estimate on services that include paint correction.
