Exterior Car Detailing – Paint Correction, Waxing & Ceramic Coating
Your car’s exterior is constantly exposed to the elements, leading to paint imperfections, oxidation, and loss of shine over time. Our mobile detailing services offer paint correction, car waxing, ceramic coating, and polishing to restore and protect your vehicle’s finish. Whether you want a deep shine, long-term protection, or full paint correction, we have the right exterior detailing package for you.
Exterior detailing goes beyond a simple car wash—it’s a specialized process that enhances, protects, and restores your vehicle’s paintwork. Regular exterior detailing not only improves aesthetics but also extends the life of your paint and maintains resale value. Here’s why exterior detailing is essential:
Protects Against Environmental Damage: UV rays, road salt, acid rain, and contaminants can degrade your car’s paint over time. Waxing, sealants, and ceramic coatings add a protective layer to prevent this damage.
Restores Paint Clarity & Shine: Paint correction removes swirl marks, oxidation, and light scratches, bringing back a deep, mirror-like finish.
Enhances Water Repellency: Hydrophobic coatings such as ceramic coatings help water bead off, reducing water spots and making cleaning easier.
Increases Resale Value: A well-maintained exterior leaves a great first impression and retains your vehicle’s value for potential buyers.
Whether your car needs a quick refresh, enhanced gloss, or long-term protection, our tailored detailing packages provide the right solution.

DIY Paint Care vs. Professional Paint Correction

DIY Waxing Lasts Weeks – Professional sealants last 6 months, and ceramic coatings last years.
Incorrect Polishing Can Damage Paint – Our professionals use safe, high-end polishing compounds.
DIY Ceramic Coatings Are Weaker – Consumer-grade coatings wear off faster than our professional ceramic applications.
Proper Tools Matter – We use high-speed polishers, decontamination products, and precision techniques for flawless results.
How to Maintain Your Exterior After Detailing
To keep your car looking freshly detailed, follow these maintenance tips:
Wash with pH-neutral soap – Avoid harsh detergents that strip wax or coatings.
Use the two-bucket method – Reduces the risk of introducing swirl marks.
Dry with microfiber towels – Prevents scratches and water spots.
Apply spray wax/sealant boosters – Helps extend the life of your coating.
Avoid automatic car washes – Brushes can cause micro-scratches.
Following these steps will keep your car shining for months!
