What is car detailing?
Car detailing is a thorough and meticulous cleaning and restoration process that goes beyond a regular car wash. It involves cleaning, polishing, and protecting both the exterior and interior of a vehicle to bring it to its best possible condition.
How often should I get my car detailed?
The frequency of car detailing depends on factors like your driving habits, weather conditions your vehicle is exposed to, and personal preferences. Generally, getting your car detailed every three to six months is recommended to maintain its appearance and condition.
Can car detailing help increase the resale value of my vehicle?
Absolutely, professional car detailing ensures your vehicle is presented in the best light. A well-maintained and thoroughly cleaned car demonstrates care and attention to potential buyers, making it more appealing.

Paint protection film vs ceramic coating – what’s the difference?
The machine polish and wax included in our Full Auto Detail service can protect your vehicle’s paint from dirt and debris for up to 60 days. The wax can also shield your car from UV damage and scratches. With an attractive glossy finish, this option is great for those looking for basic protection and a shiny finish.
Ceramic coating is a more advanced method of protection. It involves applying a liquid polymer directly onto the vehicle’s paint. Once cured, it chemically bonds with the paint surface, creating a protective layer that repels water. A ceramic coating provides longer-lasting paint protection of up to 1 year. It also achieves a deeper gloss and improved resistance against minor scratches and swirl marks.
Do you clean cars of all makes and models?
Yes, we provide car cleaning services for vehicles of all makes and models, from popular brands like Toyota, Honda and Ford, to luxury brands such as BMW and Tesla. We even extend our services to rare American vehicles.
Can you take care of my business’ fleet with regular car valet services?
Absolutely, we offer specialised fleet valet services tailored to meet the needs of your business. Our regular maintenance and attention to detail ensure that each vehicle in your fleet maintains a pristine appearance, representing your brand at its best on the road.
