Exterior Detailing
Exterior detailing that actually protects the paint.
Hand wash, decontamination and a real sealant — because a wash that isn't sealed doesn't last a week in this climate.
Washed by hand, sealed for the sun
Exterior detailing protects and enhances your paintwork — deep cleaning, decontamination, clay treatment and a spray sealant. Every vehicle is washed by hand and dried with towels and air, never a tunnel.
It all happens at your home or office. You supply water and power; we bring the foam, the pressure washer and everything else.
Why it matters here
What this does for your car
Love-bug season
Love-bug remains are acidic and in Florida heat they start etching clear coat within a day or two. Dedicated bug removal is on every package here.
Salt air off the harbor
This close to Charlotte Harbor, airborne salt settles on paint and trim constantly. A sealed surface gives it far less to hold onto.
UV and oxidation
Constant sun is what dulls and chalks paint over time — reds and blacks first. Sealant is the barrier that slows it, so every package finishes with protection.
Water spots and sprinklers
Hard irrigation water dries into mineral deposits that bond to the clear coat. Caught early they polish out; left through a summer they etch in.
Hand wash, not a tunnel
Automatic washes drag recycled grit across your paint — that's where most swirl marks come from. Everything here is washed by hand.
First impressions
Oxidized, swirled paint reads as a neglected car regardless of mileage. Keeping the finish maintained is far cheaper than correcting it later.

Process
How the service runs
Pre-rinse & bug removal
The vehicle is rinsed and foamed to lift loose grit before anything touches the paint. Bug residue on the front end and mirrors is treated separately so it softens rather than gets scrubbed.
Hand wash & wheels
Two-bucket hand wash with a clean mitt. Wheels, barrels, tires and wheel wells are cleaned with dedicated tools so brake dust doesn't cross-contaminate the paint.
Decontamination
Clay or iron treatment as the package calls for, lifting embedded fallout that washing alone leaves behind — the paint should feel glass-smooth after.
Dry, seal & dress
Dried with soft towels and air, then sealed for protection. Tires and trim dressed matte, glass finished, final walkthrough with you.
