Our precision detail begins with pressure washing and degreasing the jams, wheel wells, tires, wheels, and paint. Removal of surface debris such as water spots, overspray, tree sap, tar, and road paint. The exterior of the vehicle will go through a one–stage wax, to remove minor scratches, oxidation, spider webs, and buffer swirls. Interior fabric is cleaned using shampoo, including the headliner, seats, carpets and mats, and the trunk. All leather and vinyl will be cleaned, including the “tough to reach” places, compartments, vents, and trim. After the vehicle has gone through these processes, we do a precise inspection to ensure our quality standards are met.
