What is Our Basic Exterior Detail
A basic exterior detail is a professional cleaning service designed to safely wash and refresh the exterior of your vehicle. Unlike a typical car wash, this service uses proper detailing techniques to thoroughly clean key exterior areas while adding light protection to the paint.
​
Our basic exterior detail begins by scrubbing the rims and tires to remove brake dust and built-up grime. We then perform a pre-wash to loosen dirt and debris, followed by a careful contact wash of the vehicle’s surface to safely clean the paint.
After the exterior is washed, we clean the windows and wipe down the door and trunk jambs before finishing the service by shining and protecting the tires and applying a 1-month paint sealant. This sealant enhances gloss while providing short-term protection to help keep your vehicle looking cleaner between washes.
Thorough Exterior Cleaning
Our basic exterior detail safely removes dirt, road grime, and buildup from your vehicle’s exterior using proper washing techniques. This helps restore a cleaner and more refreshed appearance compared to a typical car wash.
Cleaner Wheels & Tires
Wheels and tires tend to collect heavy brake dust and grime. By scrubbing the rims and tires, we help restore their appearance and leave them looking clean and well-maintained.
Added Gloss & Short-Term Protection
After the vehicle is cleaned, we apply a 1-month paint sealant that enhances gloss while providing light protection for the paint. This helps repel dirt and water while keeping your vehicle looking cleaner for longer.
Who This Service Is Best For?
Our basic exterior detail is ideal for vehicle owners who want something more thorough than a standard car wash but do not necessarily need services like paint correction or ceramic coating.
​
It’s a great option for maintaining the cleanliness of your vehicle’s exterior while adding light protection and gloss to the paint. Many customers choose this service as a regular maintenance detail to keep their vehicle looking clean, well-maintained, and protected between more extensive detailing services.
