Exterior Detailing FAQ’s

Whether it’s your first time booking exterior detailing or you’ve had professional detailing done before, here are answers to the most common questions we receive from customers across Sanford and nearby areas. If you need more info about our exterior services, our team is always here to help.

What is included in a basic exterior detail?

A basic exterior detail typically includes a hand wash, wheel and tire cleaning, bug/tar removal, window cleaning, and a light exterior protectant or spray wax. It restores shine and removes surface dirt without advanced correction services.

How long does a basic exterior detail take?

Most basic exterior details take 45 minutes to 1.5 hours, depending on vehicle size and condition.

Will a basic exterior detail remove scratches?

No — a basic exterior detail cleans the surface but does not remove scratches, swirl marks, or oxidation. Those require polishing or paint correction services.

How long does the shine last?

The shine and protection typically last 2–4 weeks, depending on weather, driving habits, and how often the vehicle is washed.

Do you clean wheels and tires in this package?

Yes — wheels, tires, and wheel wells are cleaned thoroughly to remove brake dust and grime. Tire shine is usually included as well.

Can you remove bugs, tar, or bird droppings?

Yes — bug and tar removal is normally included in a basic exterior detail. Heavy or long-term contamination may require an upgraded service.

Paint CorrectionFAQ’s

Whether it’s your first time considering paint correction or you’ve had enhancement work done before, here are answers to the most common questions we receive from customers in Sanford and surrounding areas. If you need more info about our correction process or what your vehicle needs, feel free to reach out to our team anytime.

What is paint correction?

Paint correction is a multi-step machine polishing process that removes swirl marks, oxidation, holograms, light scratches, hazing, and other imperfections from your clear coat. The result is a dramatically deeper, glossier, mirror-like finish.

How do I know if my vehicle needs paint correction?

If you notice dullness, spider-web swirls, fine scratches, or your paint looks cloudy under sunlight, you likely need correction. Many brand-new vehicles also arrive from dealerships with defects.

Will paint correction remove all scratches?

It removes most defects but cannot safely remove deep scratches that have penetrated the clear coat. If you can feel a scratch with your fingernail, it may require touch-up or wet sanding.

How long does paint correction take?

Depending on the paint condition, vehicle size, and correction level, the process usually takes 4–12+ hours. Severe corrections can extend to multiple days.

Do you recommend ceramic coating after paint correction?

Absolutely. Correction restores clarity and gloss, while ceramic coating locks in those results and provides long-term protection. This combination offers the best possible finish and durability.

Will paint correction thin my clear coat?

A minimal amount of clear coat is removed — but only what is necessary. Professional equipment and controlled polishing ensure your paint remains healthy and protected.

Ceramic Coating FAQ’s

Whether it’s your first time exploring ceramic coating or you’ve had your vehicle protected before, here are answers to the most common questions we receive from customers in Sanford and surrounding areas. If you need more info about our coating options or the protection they provide, feel free to reach out to our team anytime.

How long does a ceramic coating last?

Professional-grade ceramic coatings typically last 2–7 years depending on the product, maintenance, and environmental conditions. With proper washing and annual inspections, many clients experience even longer durability.

What’s the difference between wax, sealant, and ceramic coating?

Wax and sealants provide short-term protection (weeks to months), while a ceramic coating chemically bonds to your clear coat, creating a long-lasting, durable shield against UV rays, oxidation, and contaminants. It also delivers unmatched gloss and hydrophobic performance.

Does ceramic coating prevent scratches?

Ceramic coatings are scratch-resistant, not scratch-proof. They help prevent micro-marring and swirl marks from improper washing, but cannot stop deep scratches or physical impact. Proper washing techniques are still important.

Can I take my car through automatic car washes after coating?

Avoid automatic brushes — they cause swirls and reduce coating life. Touchless washes are acceptable, but hand washing using the two-bucket method is the best way to maintain the coating.

How long does the coating installation take?

Most vehicles require 1–2 days, depending on the level of prep work, paint condition, and number of coating layers. Correct prep is essential for the coating to bond properly.

Does the coating need maintenance?

Yes. Coatings benefit from regular, proper washing and optional booster top-coats every 6–12 months to keep hydrophobic performance strong and ensure longevity.

Interior Detailing FAQ’s

Whether it’s your first time booking interior detailing or you’ve had deep cleaning done before, here are answers to the most common questions we receive from customers in Sanford and surrounding areas. If you need more info about our interior services or what’s included, feel free to reach out to our team anytime.

What is included in an interior detailing service?

Interior detailing typically includes vacuuming, steam cleaning, wiping down surfaces, cleaning vents, windows, cupholders, door panels, dashboard, seats, and deodorizing. Higher-tier packages may include shampooing, stain removal, leather conditioning, and deep extraction.

How long does interior detailing take?

The duration depends on the vehicle’s size and condition. Most standard interior detailing takes 1–3 hours, while deep cleaning or heavy stain removal can take 3–5 hours.

Do you remove stains from seats and carpets?

Yes. Professional detailers use steam, hot water extraction, and specialized cleaners to remove most stains. However, some permanent stains may not eliminate 100%, but they can be significantly improved.

Can you get rid of bad odors inside the vehicle?

Interior detailing helps remove odors caused by spills, sweat, food, smoke, or pets. For stronger odors, an ozone treatment or deep steam cleaning may be recommended.

Do you clean leather seats?

Yes. Leather seats are carefully cleaned and conditioned using pH-safe leather products to restore softness, remove dirt, and protect against cracking and fading.

Will interior detailing remove pet hair?

Yes, detailers use specialized brushes, vacuums, and pet-hair removal tools. Heavy pet hair may require an additional fee due to the extra time needed.
