Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to your most pressing questions about our services.
What is auto detailing, and how is it different from a regular car wash?
Auto detailing is a comprehensive deep-cleaning service for your vehicle, including both interior and exterior treatments. Unlike a basic car wash, detailing removes dirt, contaminants, and imperfections while restoring your car’s shine and protecting its surfaces.
How long do ceramic coatings last?
Our high-quality ceramic coatings can last anywhere from 6 years to the lifetime of the vehicle, depending on maintenance and environmental factors. Proper care, such as regular washing and avoiding harsh chemicals, will extend the lifespan of your coating.
Can I wash my car after a ceramic coating?
Yes, but it’s required to wait 7 days after application to allow the coating to cure fully. After that, use pH-neutral car shampoos and avoid automatic car washes with brushes.
Do I need to do anything before my detailing appointment?
We recommend removing any personal items from your vehicle before your appointment.
What are the benefits of ceramic coatings?
Ceramic coatings provide long-lasting protection for your vehicle’s paint by forming a durable, hydrophobic layer. Benefits include:
✔️ Enhanced Gloss & Shine
✔️ Scratch & UV Resistance
✔️ Easier Maintenance
✔️ Long-Term Protection (Up to lifetime)
✔️ Higher Resale Value
How long does the detailing process take?
The time required depends on the service selected. A basic detail may take a few hours, while a full ceramic coating application could take up to 8 hours. We’ll provide an estimated time when you book your appointment.
