What Is Detailing?

Detailing involves the cleaning of your vehicle and bringing back the shine and gloss to the visible parts of your car such as paintwork, chrome trim, windows, wheels, and tyres. The main components of exterior car detailing are preparation, polishes, and protection.


Detailers use different products and techniques to do this. These products include but are not limited to:

  • Acid-Free and PH neutral products
  • Applicators
  • Brushes
  • Detail Clays
  • Microfibre drying towels
  • Polishes
  • Special Plush Drying Towels
  • Waxes

Cleaning pertains to the removal of all foreign surface particles from exterior surfaces. It should be done using the right products for your vehicle, as well as through proper washing and claying. A clay bar can be used to remove contamination and dirt from the surface, including embedded particles in the clear coat such as bugs, tar, sap, and overspray.


Polishing (Paint Correction) refers to using specific polishing pads such as foam, wool, or microfiber to remove microns of clear coat from a vehicle. It can be done by hand or machine. This service helps remove fine scratches, swirls marks, oxidation, and other imperfections from the surface, which are usually caused by improper washing and drying techniques, among others.
