Automobile dealers have known the benefits of detailing for years. When you see a great looking car, it looks like it has been properly maintained. To a prospective customer, appearance is everything! Even a vehicle with high mileage or mechanical problems that looks good will sell because it still looks like a worthwhile investment. Are you having trouble selling your vehicle?  In fact, on the average, the resale value may be increased by a $1000 or more! Definitely a worthwhile investment when considering our great low prices.

It is usually when selling a vehicle that most people consider detailing. But, by that time (usually an average of 5 years) the vehicle has too much wear and tear to restore it to a like new condition. That's why we recommend thinking of detailing as a maintenance program the same as changing the fluids, getting a tune-up or rotating the tires. Most people don't realize that in most cases, it is less expensive to replace the engine than to replace a "factory paint job"! We recommend at least 2 to 5 times a year depending on your driving, car washing habits and the storage of the vehicle. Is it parked inside or outside most of the time? Do you wash it every other day or Maybe once a month? How do you wash it? Do you spend so much time in your vehicle that you feel like it's your home? These are just some of the determining factors we consider in recommending what maintenance schedule is best for you.

Don't forget the Winter months are the most crucial time to detail due to the rapid changes in temperature, road construction, salt and other elements that are especially hard on your vehicles Exterior. Tthe Magnesium Chloride they are using on the roads now is proving to be even more harmful than was previously thought to the exposed surfaces of your car. Even though "It's just going to get dirty again anyway", properly applied Wax protection is your best defense. Plus it makes it easier to wash off all that harmful grime on your next wash.

You May have been told by the dealer, your body shop painter, or read it in your owners manual, that with todays clear coat finishes your vehicle never needs to be waxed. All the elements shown at the top of this page can and will permanently scar the clear coat unless you plan to wash your car every single day. Washing and properly applied Wax protection will extend the life of your paint.

You may have already found that those once a year or the last forever sealants (that you may have purchased with your vehicle) that are loaded with silicones and polymers are not the answer. They also can cause a new clear coat to crack or peel. Some of the newer sealants we use Will extend the protection time from a standard wax, but are only recommended on paint at least 1 year old and not more than 3 years old. The length of protection time with both Wax or a Sealant depends on your washing habits.

Do you have fine scratches, lines or swirls from washing and drying or perhaps from other detail shops? Have you ever used the scrub brush at the self-serve wash? Does your paint have a cloudy film or oxidation? Exterior Detailing can solve all of these problems and many more. We Buff your cars paint free from the swirl marks other less experienced detailers will leave you with.
