How much does it cost?
The cost of the detail is always determined based on the vehicle size and what services you're looking to have done. For more high end details such as paint correction, and coatings, the price is determined based on the current state of the vehicle, estimated completion time, and desired results.

Do you do basic wash and vac?
Basic wash and vac is only available for vehicles that have already been detailed by me within the past 90 days. If the vehicle becomes excessively dirty during this time an up charge from the standard price may be applied
Why are you more expensive than the other guy?
When you come to me you're not just paying for a standard detail. Instead you're paying for the extra time, care, and knowledge I put into each detail.
Whats the difference between wax, sealants, and ceramics?
Waxes aare carnuba based products that are great for giving your paint a warm glow and making water bead, however they only last 1 - 3 months. Sealants are typically polymer based and created in a lab. They're more durable than wax and can last 3 months to a year if cared for properly. Ceramics are coatings that are thicker than wax and sealants. Designed to bond to your paints clear coat they can last between 1 - 6 years if applied and maintained properly.
Why does it take so long?
My goal is to give my customers the highest quality detail. Cutting corners is not something I do. Therefore my level of detail may take extra steps than other detailer. For example my standard wash does not entail washing the vehicle once. It may go through multiple washes in order to remove all contaminates.
How often should I have my vehicle detailed?
Whether you have wax, sealant, or ceramics applied to your car, these protectants need to be maintained. For vehicles with a sealant I would recommend washing the vehicle once a month with a proper maintenence detail at 3 months. Doing so will endure your vehicle is always protected. For ceramic vehicles its recommended to have a maintenance detail every 6 months in order to decontaminate and maintain the coating. Without proper maintenance these coating will break down and their performance and durability will diminish.
My car is new, do I need a detail
Just because a car is new doesn't mean its in perfect condition. The paint may still have surface contaminants left behind from the shipping process, or it may have received some light scratches due to improper washing methods at the dealership. Most importantly, new cars typically don't have any form of paint protection. Whether its wax, sealant, or a ceramic coating, its always advised to have something protecting your paint. Doing so will make it easier to maintain your vehicles appearance and keep it looking like new.
