A car wash makes your car look clean for a day. An exterior detail makes your paint actually clean — and protects it for months. I remove bonded contamination the naked eye can't see, hand-wash using the two-bucket method to prevent swirl introduction, and seal the finish with a premium protectant. Your car doesn't just look shiny — it's genuinely decontaminated and protected.

The Process
Foam Pre-Wash
I start with a thick foam pre-wash that dwell time loosens road grime, bugs, and traffic film before any contact — reducing the risk of scratching during the wash.
Two-Bucket Hand Wash
Using the two-bucket method with a grit guard, I hand-wash panel by panel with a pH-balanced shampoo and a soft microfiber wash mitt. One bucket for soap, one for rinsing — dirt never goes back on the paint.
Iron & Clay Decontamination
An iron remover spray dissolves embedded ferrous particles that cling to the paint. A clay towel then pulls remaining bonded contaminants — tree sap, overspray, industrial fallout — leaving the surface glass-smooth.
Sealant Application
A premium paint sealant is applied and buffed to a clean, deep finish. Tires and exterior trim receive a dedicated dressing. The sealant protects for 3–6 months against UV, road salt, and environmental contamination.
Who This Is For
Spring Pollen & Bug Season
Eastern Washington spring coats your car in yellow pollen and bug splatter. A decontamination wash removes it before it etches the paint.
Winter Road Salt Removal
Spokane winters mean road salt and brine that corrode metal and stain paint. An exterior detail removes it and re-seals the surface.
Between Ceramic Coatings
Maintain your coating's hydrophobic properties with a decontamination wash every 3–6 months.
Pre-Sale Refresh
A clean, protected exterior adds curb appeal and resale value. Buyers notice the shine first.
