The method

Our 4-Step Detailing Protocol

01

Inspect

We assess paint, trim and cabin condition, then agree the result you want.

02

Decontaminate

pH-neutral wash, iron remover and clay treatment remove bonded road film.

03

Correct

Machine polishing reduces swirls and brings back depth where the paint allows.

04

Protect

Wax or ceramic protection is applied, followed by a final quality inspection.
