What Does a Complete Detail Include?

A complete detail is effectively both Exterior and Interior Details in one, but at a lower price as a thank-you for getting both.

Deep Vacuum

A Complete Detail starts on the interior with a good, thorough vacuum. Compressed air and brushes are also used to dislodge trapped dirt from underneath carpet fibers.

Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning

Stains or anything stuck onto the fabric surfaces such as liquid spills or gum are targeted next with steam, chemicals, brushes, extraction, or whatever is necessary to remove them. Depending on the age and nature of the stain and the affected surface, stains may not come out entirely. However, even the ones that don't will usually significantly improve in appearance. This step also includes the seatbelts.

Cleaning and Protection of Plastics, Vinyl, Leather, Trim, Etc.

This includes the dashboard, instrument panel, console, steering wheel, compartments, door panels, and any other plastic, rubber, or leather surfaces. They are all cleaned and dressed to extend the life by protecting against drying and UV damage. Leather is always treated with a separate product designed specifically to recondition it and ensure maximum life.

Finishing Touches & Inspection

Finally, the windows are cleaned to a streak-free finish (don't worry, we clean the top edge that gets rolled up, too). Rearview and visor mirrors aren't forgotten, either. A final vacuum is done across the whole car to pick up any dust that settled while working. Lastly, a final inspection is done and touch-ups are made to areas that were missed or where improvement is still possible.

Pre-Wash

The wash starts with a foaming soap sprayed on the car and rinsed off. This breaks down dirt and removes it from the paint before anything even touches it, minimizing swirling and scratching.

Hand Wash

Now that the car is 90% clean already, it's much safer to proceed with a contact wash. This removes any remaining loose dirt along with cleaning the wheels and tires, door jambs, and any bugs, tar, or sap on the paint.

Decontamination

Even after a thorough wash, there are some particles that remain. These are usually iron or dirt that embed themselves into the paint with normal driving and use of the vehicle. Decontamination involves using an iron remover to dissolve any specks of rust in the paint, then using a form of soft polymer known as "clay" to remove all contaminates. The result? Extremely smooth paint that's ready for a coating.

Ceramic Sealant

Thanks to the decontamination step, any final protection applied to the paint will last significantly longer. This sealant will make your car very hydrophobic. This gives the car self-cleaning properties, makes it much faster and easier to wash, and adds fantastic gloss that lasts for months.

Prices depend on the condition of the vehicle.
