EXTERIOR DETAIL · LYNNWOOD, WA

Exterior Car Detailing

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.

SEE AN EXTERIOR DETAIL IN ACTION

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.
