Exterior detailing involves cleaning and bringing a shine to the car’s paint, chrome trim, windows, wheels, and tires. The three main components of exterior car detailing are  cleaning ,  polishing , and protecting.

​

1. Cleaning

removing all foreign surface particles from exterior surfaces through the use of washing and claying. A clay bar helps to clean contamination/dirt from within the clear coat that cannot be removed through weekly washing such as bugs, tar, sap, etc.

​

2. Polishing refers to using mechanical polishes by hand or with a machine and specific polishing pads that remove micrometers of clear coat from a vehicle to remove fine scratches and swirls from a paint surface produced from improper washing or drying technique.

​

3. Protecting  involves the application of a protective wax that prevents foreign matter from adhering to the surface of the vehicle, including water, bugs splatter, tar, and dirt. Waxes and sealants provide this barrier against the elements.
