Exterior

Exterior Detailing & Hand Washing in Richmond, KY

Every exterior here is washed by hand. The wash sequence matters as much as the products: wheels first so brake dust doesn't land on clean paint, then a top-down wash and rinse, then drying with clean microfiber.

From there you choose your protection: wax with approximately one month of protection, or a paint sealant with up to six months — with clay treatment to remove bonded contamination.

All prices are starting prices. Final pricing depends on vehicle size and condition, confirmed before work begins.

What affects the scope

  • Vehicle size (Car, SUV, Truck or Van) and body height — trucks, three-row SUVs and minivans take longer
  • How much bonded contamination is on the paint
  • Bug and tar build-up, especially after highway driving
  • Brake-dust build-up on the wheels
  • Whether you choose wax or paint sealant

What to expect

  • Washing and clay treatment make paint smooth and reflective; clay treatment does not remove scratches.
  • Protection life varies with use, care and exposure.
  • Etching from bird droppings, hard-water spots or sun damage may remain, because correcting it requires polishing.
  • Clay treatment is required before a paint sealant, so every sealant here is applied after clay.

Common questions

What does clay treatment actually do?

It pulls bonded contamination — industrial fallout, overspray, rail dust and road film — out of the clear coat. The paint feels smooth afterwards. It does not remove scratches.

Do you offer paint correction or buffing?

Polishing and paint correction are quoted separately. They are not part of any package.

What's the difference between wax and paint sealant?

Wax gives approximately one month of protection. Paint sealant gives up to six months. Protection life varies with use, care and exposure.
