Our Exterior Detail is a proper maintenance wash for vehicles that need the outside brought back - safely. We break down dirt and grime without swirling or scratching the paint, and clean the wheels, tires and fender wells properly rather than just rinsing them. Most vehicles take 30-45 minutes. No interior work is included; for inside and out, see the Express Detail.
Our Complete Detail is one of our most popular services — deep interior shampooing and stain removal paired with a full exterior wash, clay bar decontamination, and a 6-8 month protection wax. It takes roughly 4-5 hours depending on the vehicle, and every minute goes into getting your car as close to showroom-fresh as it can be.

Full exterior hand wash
Rims, tires and fender wells deep cleaned
Gas cap and door jambs cleaned
Streak-free exterior windows
Spray wax for 2-3 months of protection

OUR PROCESS
Wheels, tires and fender wells first, with wheel-safe cleaners and brushes
Rinse, then bugs and bird droppings removed
Car soap applied through a foam cannon
Hand washed with soft mitts and detail brushes
Spray wax applied for lasting gloss and protection
Wheels and fender wells come first, then foam cannon, hand wash with soft mitts, and a hand dry so nothing gets swirled back in. The spray wax leaves two to three months of protection. We'll do it at our Lynnwood shop or at your place, anywhere within 25 miles.
FAQ
Common Questions Before You Book
Answers to the questions we hear most often about service prep, timing, and aftercare.
Do I need to do anything before my Exterior Detail?
Nothing at all - just make sure we can get around the whole vehicle. If it's extremely dirty a quick rinse helps, but don't wash it; decontamination is part of the service.
How long does an Exterior Detail take?
Around 30-45 minutes for most vehicles.
Does this include a wax or sealant?
Yes - a spray wax that adds gloss and gives roughly 2-3 months of protection. For longer-lasting protection and a smoother finish, look at our Claybar and Wax service.
Is any interior cleaning included?
No. This service is exterior only. If you want the inside done as well, the Express Detail covers both.
Can you come to me?
Yes. We're fully mobile across Snohomish and King County. Our unit carries its own water, so we just need easy access to the vehicle.
What if my paint feels rough or has bugs baked on?
That's contamination bonded into the paint, and a wash alone won't remove it. Our Claybar and Wax service is built for exactly that - clay bar decontamination plus a one-year ceramic sealant.
