Why Deets and not another provider?

We are aware your choices to have your vehicle washed or detailed are numerous. Anyone can wash your vehicle to remove road grime, dirt and dust off the exterior surfaces and can vacuum the interior with a shop vac. Auto wash and detailing services can't be compared apples to apples. An auto wash service are all completed differently and they don't all include the same amount of steps. The goal is to clean surfaces without damaging the surfaces. Introducing scratches and swirls into your vehicles paint finish is very easy! The clear coat in todays vehicles are very soft. The circular scratches you see on a vehicles paint finish is do to improper washing techniques. These can be seen easier on a darker color vehicle. Most shop vacs do not have a strong enough suction to remove stubborn dirt, dust and sand embedded into a vehicles interior carpet and cloth upholstery.

Why 3 Maintenance Wash options?

Every customer has different expectations in what condition they want to maintain their vehicle in. The higher tier washes include additional services that allow our technicians to clean, condition and protect more surfaces. If you are wondering what wash we complete on our customers with high-end and exotic sports vehicles, we complete our Gold and Platinum Wash throughout the month.

Why is the cost of a One-Time wash more expensive than the Every Week and 2 Weeks?

Our services are based on the average amount of time it takes to complete a service. Vehicles that are washed once or less per month take much more time and effort to complete a service than a vehicle that is cleaned every week or 2 weeks. Over our 13 years of business, we have learned that to maintain a vehicle looking its best it needs to be cleaned at least every 2 weeks. Most of our business comes from building long term relationships with our customers and their vehicles. For their trust and loyalty, we offer discounts off every service we complete.

Why is it important to wash my vehicle?

Most of us take pride and get a sense of accomplishment to drive a nice and clean car. What we drive and own represents who we are. But there is more to it. A wll maintain vehicle, Maintains a Higher Value!! Our vehicles are one of our most significant investment. Their value drops as soon as it leaves the lot. That, unfortunately, is something we can't prevent. But we can control is how our vehicle holds up and looks throughout the years. A vehicle holds a higher resale value when its interior and exterior appearance look as close to new. According to KBB, a poorly maintained vehicle value can be 8%-15% less than a well maintained one. There is a science behind why and how often we need to have our vehicles cleaned. Vehicles exterior surfaces are exposed to harsh contaminants daily: rail dust, brake dust, road tar, bird droppings, tree sap, to name a few. These can quickly deteriorate your vehicles exterior surfaces if not washed off on time by edging, fading and staining plastics, rubber, glass and painted finishes. This will lead to expensive reconditioning efforts and devaluing your vehicles resale value.

How often do I need to wash my vehicle?

This comes down to a couple of things. How often do you drive? Do you park it indoors or outdoors overnight? Do you park it away from bushes or trees? Is it exposed to salt water or sprinkler system? In over the 13 years we have been in the industry we have found out that vehicles that are driven a few times per week need to be clean at least 2 times per month, to maintain it looking its best. If your vehicle sits outdoors over night we strongly recommend to have it cleaned every weeks to prevent from contamination building up. The end goal is to prevent harsh contaminants embedding and damaging the exterior surfaces and dust, dirt and stains from layering and clinging on the interior surfaces. The dirtier your vehicle gets the more difficult and more effort it will take to clean it. This will not only cost you more money, but it may sacrifice your vehicle's delicate interior and exterior surfaces. Your vehicles most delicate surface is the paint finish. Contamination easily embeds itself, a layer of dirt and dust quickly builds up, and if not washed as needed these can deteriorate and introduce swirls into the paint finish when being washed. If you want to drive a clean car all the time, we recommend you have it cleaned once per week. A small percentage of customers go the extra mile and have it cleaned 2 times per week.

• If you drive your vehicle 4-7 days per week, park it indoors overnight and park away from trees and bushes you can have it cleaned every 2 weeks.
• If you drive your vehicle 4-7 days per week, but it's parked outdoors overnight, then we strongly recommend you have it cleaned every week.

How does your recurring services work?

You set it and forget it! No need to schedule one appointment at a time. Our system automatically schedules appointments for the same day, time and location. You can always change one or all upcoming appointments within your account.

How does Frequency Discount work?

The more frequent we clean your vehicle, the less you pay per service. When you select Every Week and 2 Weeks, a discount is applied to each scheduled service. You are only charged after each service appointment is completed. We do require to have at least 2 services completed for us to honor the Frequency discount. If you do cancel our sytem will charge the first appoointment at the one time price. Example: If you select to have our Silver Wash completed every week on your sedan at $27. If you cancel the entire service after we complete the first service, our system will automatically charge you the firts service at $34.

Can I change my service to a higher tier wash?

Most definitely! Within your account, you can upgrade to a higher tier maintenance wash for any of your appointments. When editing your service you have the option to edit the one appointment or all upcoming.
We recommend you do it days in advance to make sure the extra time needed to complete the higher tier service is blocked off for you.

Can I use my recurring services for multiple vehicles?

No. Every one of your vehicles need to have their own recurring services. You can't substitute one vehicle for the other.

How often should I have the Gold Wash completed?

We recommend you have this done at least once per month! If you want your vehicle to look its best every time we clean it, then have it done on every service. This service includes the necessary steps to clean and protect interior and exterior surfaces .The interior wipe down will allow us to remove light stains off the soft-touch materials, plastics, vinyl, and leather surfaces. The spray wax not only will add clarity and shine to the paint, but it will also allow us to remove light contaminants off the paint that don’t get washed off in the wash process.

How often should I have the Platinum Wash Completed?

We recommend having this done at least once every four washes. Clean and conditioned wheel wells are one of those surfaces that will give your vehicle that extra touch to maintain it looking like new. Conditioning exterior plastics will darken and protected them.

Is there a long term commitment if I select Every Week or 2 Weeks?

Of course not! If you are not happy with our service you can cancel the service at any time. Since our frequency discount is applied from the start, we do ask to have at least 2 serivces completed. If you cancel after we complete your first service, our system will automatically charge the first service at the one time price.

Which maintenance wash is right for my vehicle?

It comes down to what condition you want to maintain your vehicle in? Our silver wash isn’t you average wash to what other competitors offer. It delivers the same level of attention as our higher tier services. Our higher tier services allow us to have more surfaces cleaned and conditioned on your vehicle to help maintain it as close as possible to its new condition. Most customers who drive high-end, luxury, and sports vehicles have our Gold wash completed each time we clean their vehicle and upgrade to our Platinum wash every 2-4 services. If your Toyota or Honda is a Bentley for you, you can have this service completed too.

I have a new car, which detail should I have completed?

We recommend our Clay & Wax for the exterior and our New Car Interior detail. It's the perfect time to remove contamination from the exterior surfaces and apply a layer of protection on the exterior plastics and paint finish. Contamination builds up during transport while sitting at the port and as it sat on your auto dealerships lot. Interior surfaces also get minor stains throughout the whole process, which is why we created our New Car Interior. It will allow us to spot clean surfaces and most importantly apply a conditioner to help protect and repel any future stains.

I have never had my vehicle detailed, which service should I request?

It all depends how old your vehicle is and how oftern do you wash your vehicle? At the very minimum, we recommend the Clay & Wax and Complete Interior detail. If the paint finish is dull, has severe stains and deep scratches you will have to request our Stage 2 exterior detail (coming soon).

How often should I have my vehicle thoroughly cleaned and detailed?

We get this question a lot, and most of our customers are shocked when our answer is, NEVER! Completing thorough details, like Clay & Wax, multi-step polishing, and complete interior shampooing details, can be very invasive and tough on surfaces. The question should be, how often should I wash my vehicle to help me avoid costly and invasive details? However, if you are browsing our detailing services, it’s because you now need to enhance the look and condition of your vehicle. After we detail your vehicle we can maintain it for you.

Which detail is right for my vehicle?

Exterior: Most vehicles we work on, the paint and glass surfaces need to be decontaminated (clayed bar) to remove embeded contamination. If you are concern about removing scratches, swirls, stains and/or imperfections from the paint finish we recommend to have our Stage 2 exterior detail (coming soon). Interior: Most vehicles we start maintaining that are a year old or more, need a thorough interior detail. Even if you had your vehicle cleaned frequently, most car wash providers fail to properly vacuum and dust interior surfaces which lead to dirt and dust clinging to surfaces. Our Complete Interior Detail service will allow us to enhance your vehicle to its Like New Condition.

How often should I have my vehicles paint finish waxed?

Every one to six months. As you can see, there is a considerable range. Applying wax is a service that can be done every month and will not harm the paint finish. It will benefit your vehicle since the more coats of wax applied the more the protection will build up. If you have your vehicle washed frequently and have it spray waxed at least every 2 washes then you can extend applying a wax every 3-6 months.

My paint is rough to the touch and has orange specs, which detail should I request?

Clay & Wax Detail service. Your vehicles paint finish is rough because contamination has embedded itself to it. Gliding the appropriate clay bar grade with a lubricant will remove the contaminants, giving the paint more clarity and most importantly leaving it smooth as glass. If you are concerned about stains, scratches, and swirls, we recommend you have our Deluxe or Premium detail completed.

I have swirls I want to have removed, which detail should I have completed?

Stage 2 Exterior Detail service. Swirl marks are light to medium-deep scratches. These were introduced into your vehicles paint finish due to improper wash techniques and process. Our Stage 2, 2 step polishing process allows us to remove (level) most of these circular looking scratches. It will significantly improve the depth, clarity, and shine of the paint finish without sacrificing too much clear coat.

What's going to be the final price of the detailing service I request?

The price shown is the starting price for the service. The final price is based on the estimated time to complete the service. Upon arrival our technician will evaluate the condition of your vehicle and will communicate that to you what the final price will be before they start working in the vehicle. On average services range from their starting price up to $25-$50 more. If you don't wash your vehicle often and you know your car is in need of some TLC, then the final price may be higher than the $50.

What is "The Details" under Exterior Surfaces?

These additional steps allow our technician to clean, condition and protected the surfaces that will further enhance the look and condition of your vehicle.

My vehicles interior is pretty clean, which interior detail should I request?

Partial Interior Detail. This detail allows our technician to shampoo your vehicles interior high traffic areas. The rest of the interior surfaces get wiped down using a microfiber towel and a special cleaner to remove minor and light stains. After the shampooing and wipe down process plastics, soft-touch materials, vinyl, and leather surfaces get condition to enhance and protect them.

Why would the cost of my detail be higher than the listed starting price?

The final price is determined on the approximate time it will take to complete the service to the best of our ability. A few examples of why the final cost of your detail service may be higher. Exterior:

• If your vehicle is excessively dirty, then our technician will have to rinse and soap your vehicle multiple times. We need to wash off the most dirt, dust, and road grime before we proceed with the next step.
