Exterior Detailing

Need the outside handled without paying for an interior service you do not want? Choose a maintenance hand wash, wash and paint protection, or deeper decontamination. We adjust the labor for vehicle size and actual exterior condition.

Careful hand washing of a metallic blue sedan

Exterior only means exterior only

From a proper wash to decontamination and protection.

A clean vehicle should not be priced like neglected paint. Tell the Advisor the result you want, then report buildup, water spots, bugs, tar, brake dust or bonded contamination only if they are actually present.

01Wash & maintain.

Pre-wash, careful hand wash, wheels and tires, hand dry and a final exterior check. Standalone exterior visits start at $99 for a well-maintained standard vehicle.

02Wash + protect.

A more complete exterior service with door jambs and paint sealant protection after the wash.

03Decontaminate + protect.

For rough or neglected paint that needs bonded-contamination removal before protection is applied.

Pre-wash & careful hand wash

Exterior-only cleaning without a drive-through or rushed wash process.

Details

What goes into it

Loose grime and road film are softened first, then the vehicle is hand washed and dried with attention to paint-safe technique.

  • Pre-wash to loosen grime
  • Careful hand wash
  • Towel hand dry
  • Final exterior inspection
Best for

Customers who simply want the vehicle properly washed outside without purchasing interior work.

Wheels & tires

Wheel faces cleaned and tires finished as part of every exterior quote.

Details

Standard work

Normal brake dust and road grime are cleaned as part of the exterior service. Heavily neglected wheels can be reported in the Advisor so extra labor is accounted for before arrival.

  • Wheel-face cleaning
  • Tire cleaning
  • Tire dressing
  • Deeper spoke/barrel work when selected or needed
Why it matters

Wheel condition can vary dramatically, so severe brake-dust buildup should not be hidden inside the price of a clean vehicle.

Paint sealant / wax-style protection

Protection after cleaning for customers who want more than a wash.

Details

What goes into it

Our wash-and-protect result includes paint sealant after the exterior is cleaned. If you only choose a maintenance wash, protection can still be specifically added.

  • Applied after proper washing
  • Adds gloss and water behavior
  • Helps make future maintenance easier
Plain-English version

If you are looking for a “wash and wax,” this is the protection option to choose in the Advisor.

Clay / bonded-contamination removal

For paint that feels rough even after washing.

Details

When it is used

Normal washing removes surface dirt but not everything bonded to the paint. The Advisor recommends decontamination when the condition or reported contamination justifies it.

  • Bonded road contamination
  • Rough-feeling paint
  • Preparation before protection
Why it is separate

A clean, smooth vehicle should not pay for decontamination it does not need.

Water spots, bugs & tar

Specific exterior problems get specific labor.

Details

Condition-based treatment

Localized bugs or water spots are different from widespread mineral buildup or heavy tar. The Advisor asks severity so the quote and appointment time reflect the real job.

  • Bug residue treatment
  • Tar / stubborn road-residue treatment
  • Water-spot / mineral treatment
Important

Some etched water spots or paint defects can require paint correction rather than normal exterior detailing. We will tell you before adding correction work.

Exterior pricing

Pay for the exterior work you actually want.

Exterior-only quotes start with the desired result and then adjust for vehicle size, buildup and specialty concerns. No interior work is automatically added.
