Exterior Detail by Detail Xperts

Exterior Detail

An exterior detail is more than a wash. It is a controlled process for removing road film safely and finishing the paint so the vehicle looks sharp from every angle.

The problem

Automatic washes and rushed hand washes leave film, streaked glass, dirty wheel faces and swirl-inducing marks in the paint.

Our approach

Careful hand washing with proper lubrication and clean media, wheels and tires treated separately, then a controlled dry and finish.

Process

How the exterior detail is performed

  1. 01

    Pre-rinse and foam

    Loose dirt is softened and lifted before anything touches the paint.

  2. 02

    Wheels and tires

    Wheels, wheel faces and tires are cleaned with dedicated tools.

  3. 03

    Hand wash

    Panel-by-panel wash with clean media to limit the risk of marring.

  4. 04

    Dry

    Controlled drying, including shuts and gaps that hold water.

  5. 05

    Finish

    Exterior glass and finishing treatments appropriate to the service selected.
