Exterior Detailing FAQ’S
How long does an exterior detail take?
1
Most exterior details take between 1.5 to 3 hours depending on the vehicle’s size and condition. Heavily contaminated paint or larger vehicles may take longer.
What’s the difference between a wash & wax and a wash, clay, and ceramic service?
2
A wash & wax provides a quick shine and short-term protection (typically a few weeks.) A wash, clay, ceramic service removes embedded contaminants and adds a longer-lasting ceramic sealant that protects your paint for 6-9 months.
Will exterior detailing remove scratches or swirl marks?
3
Basic exterior detailing will improve the appearance of your paint, but it does not remove deeper scratches or swirl marks. Paint correction is required for permanent removal.
How often should I get my car exterior detailing?
4
For best results, we recommend a wash and wax every 1-2 months and a ceramic sealant service every 6-9 months to keep your vehicle protected and looking its best. It really all depends on what service you are getting and how long the protection will last. If you get our premium lifetime ceramic coating, you will never need your car fully detailing again. You will just need a yearly maintenance wash to decontaminate the coating.
