🔱 Elite Exterior Detail – $350 (Sedans) $400 (Trucks & SUVs)

⏱️ 4–6 Hours
The foundation for serious paint protection.
This is where perfection begins.

Built as a mandatory prep stage for polishing and ceramic coatings, the Elite Exterior Detail is the highest tier decontamination and paint-cleansing service we offer. Every step is done in sequence — for a reason. If you're protecting a show car, a collector vehicle, a weekend weapon, or just something you love enough to do it right — this is where the process starts.

🧼 The Process: Decontamination by Design

It starts with a high-pH strip wash, applied with a pressurized sprayer — breaking down waxes, sealants, road film, and anything standing between you and raw paint.

Next comes a pH-neutral foam cannon application for safe surfactant-based contact washing, followed by a full rinse and blow dry to prepare for deep cleaning.

Then the chemical decontamination phase:

  • Bug & tar remover

  • Iron remover (removes embedded metallic contamination)

  • Rinse and inspect

Then, the mechanical phase:

  • Clay bar decontamination on all painted surfaces

  • Final surface prep spray to ensure zero residue before polish or topcoat

If no further polishing or coating is scheduled, we apply a ceramic-based spray sealant to deliver temporary UV protection, hydrophobic behavior, and enhanced clarity — typically lasting up to 6 months depending on care.
