Car detailing is a deeper clean closer to a restoration process rather than than a normal car wash. It focuses on safely cleaning, protecting, and improving the interior and exterior of your vehicle.

A car wash is usually a quick clean. Detailing is more thorough, using safer methods, better products, and more time to clean the areas that actually matter without damaging your paint.

For most daily drivers, every 3 to 6 months is a good rule of thumb. If your vehicle is used for work, kids, pets, road trips, or lives outside, it may need attention more often monthly maintenance cleans would be reccomended here.

Not always. Some scratches are too deep to safely remove. Our goal is to improve the finish as much as safely possible without chasing damage that could compromise the paint.

A ceramic coating is a long-lasting protective layer applied to your paint. It helps protect against UV, dirt, road grime, water spotting, and makes the vehicle easier to clean.
