All interior panels, leather, vinyl, and plastic will receive UV protection which will help prevent fading, color changing, and cracking. With this package, every point from bumper to bumper will be addressed and protected. One-Step Machine Polishing with claybar treatment - $225-325 (5-9 hours) After thoroughly washing the vehicle, the painted surfaces are deep cleaned with a clay process to restore a fresh, brand new slick feel to the paint, which will allow the following polishing to do a much better job. After the claying is done, a medium duty polish is machine worked into the paint removing minor defects such as light oxidation, light swirl marks, and light scratches. Paint will see about a 30% reduction in paint defects, and see a definite increase in shine/cleanliness. The main focus of this process is to really restore the gloss levels and add an incredible wetness to the paint surfaces!

***Before choosing a detail package, it is important to look at more than just the bottom line price! What is the value of the detail you are choosing? What is the detail going to do for your car? Are you looking to add gloss, remove defects, or create that showroom condition? Many times, people think a simple waxing will make their car look brand new again. Truth be told, it will NOT do it alone! There are many aspects of a proper detail…
A basic explanation regarding some of the aspects involved in exterior detailing:
Washing – your basic line of defense into maintaining the appearance of your car. Removes surface level dirt and debris from the exterior of the car.
Compounding – an aggressive approach to re-leveling the paint to remove defects such as swirl marks, scratches, holograms, and buffer trails from hindering the shine and luster from the paint. After compounding, polishing is necessary to restore the high gloss and shine in the paint!
Polishing – Restores the gloss and shine from the paint. It removes haze and light swirling and produces a deep, wet and glossy appearance in the paint. Compounding and polishing contribute to 95% of the look of the car.
Waxing – Simply put, wax is the sacrificial layer of protection covering the paint. Wax blocks UV rays, helps prevent dirt and debris from bonding to the paint, and just slightly alters the look of the paint. It is not a cure all for your damaged paint. Waxing accounts for 5% of the appearance of the car!
Clay bar treatment – Automotive clay bar pulls all bonded and embedded dirt and debris from the pores of the paint. This process is what will leave the paint smooth to the touch. Removes pollution, tree sap, fuel deposits, stuck on bugs and tar, overspray, dirt and grime! The clay bar process WILL NOT remove oxidation. ***Price and time is dependent on the CONDITION and the SIZE of the vehicle to be worked on! |
