Step 1: Wash and Decontamination

• The process begins with a hand wash using specialized car shampoos to remove dirt, grime, and contaminants from the surface. This step may include pre-washing or foaming the car to break down stubborn dirt.

Step 2: Clay Bar Treatment

• A clay bar is applied to remove embedded contaminants such as brake dust, tar, and other microscopic particles that standard washing can’t eliminate. This step helps to create a smooth surface for the next stages.

Step 3: Polishing

• Polishing restores the vehicle’s paint by removing swirl marks, scratches, and oxidation. A machine polisher is often used to bring out the shine, giving the car a refreshed appearance.

Step 4: Waxing and Sealing

• After polishing, a coat of wax or sealant is applied to protect the paint. This adds shine and provides a protective layer against UV rays, dirt, and contaminants, helping the vehicle maintain its gleam.

Step 5: Wheel and Tire Cleaning

• Special attention is given to the wheels and tires. The tires are cleaned, conditioned, and often dressed with a product to restore their black color and prevent cracking or fading.

Step 1: Vacuuming

• All carpets, seats, and upholstery are thoroughly vacuumed to remove dust, dirt, and debris. This step ensures a clean surface before further treatment.

Step 2: Shampooing and Steam Cleaning

• Carpets, floor mats, and fabric seats are shampooed or steam cleaned to remove stains and odors. For leather interiors, leather cleaners and conditioners are used to preserve the material’s integrity.

Step 3: Dashboard and Console Cleaning

• All surfaces, including the dashboard, door panels, and center console, are wiped down and cleaned. Special care is taken to remove dust, smudges, and grime from nooks and crannies.

Step 4: Glass Cleaning

• Windows and mirrors are cleaned to a streak-free finish. This step ensures maximum visibility and a spotless interior view.

Step 5: Odor Removal

• An air freshener or deodorizer is applied, and in some cases, ozone treatment is used to eliminate stubborn odors such as smoke or mildew.

Step 1: Degreasing and Cleaning

• The engine bay is sprayed with a degreaser to break down oil, grease, and grime. After a thorough rinse, the area is dried to ensure no moisture is left behind.

Step 2: Dressing

• Plastic and rubber components within the engine bay are treated with a dressing to enhance their appearance and protect them from cracking over time.

• After the detailing process is complete, the technician will conduct a final inspection to ensure all areas are properly cleaned and treated. Any missed spots or imperfections are addressed at this stage to deliver a flawless finish.
