Mobile Detailing FAQ’s

What exactly is mobile detailing?

Mobile detailing brings professional cleaning, restoration, and protection services directly to your home, workplace, or preferred location. Instead of driving to a shop, our fully equipped mobile unit arrives with everything needed water, power, tools, and premium products to detail your vehicle on-site with convenience and precision.

Do you need access to my water or electricity?

No — our mobile setup is self-contained. We bring our own water supply, power source, tools, and equipment. You only need to provide space for us to work safely around your vehicle.

How long does a mobile detail take?

Depending on the service, vehicle size, and condition, most mobile detailing appointments take 1.5 to 4 hours. Deep clean services, pet hair removal, heavy staining, or multi-vehicle appointments may take longer.

What should I do to prepare before my appointment?

Very little! Just ensure your vehicle is accessible and parked in a spot where we can work — ideally with enough room to open the doors fully. If your community or workplace has detailing restrictions, please confirm ahead of time.

What’s included in a mobile detail?

Yes — as long as we have access to the vehicle and permission to work on the property. Many clients book mobile detailing during work hours or while running errands to save time.

Is mobile detailing as good as shop detailing?

Absolutely. Our mobile unit uses the same professional-grade tools, chemicals, and techniques as top detailing studios. In many cases, mobile detailing is even better because we offer 1-on-1 attention with no rushed turnaround times.

Exterior Detailing FAQ's

What is included in an exterior detailing service?

Exterior detailing typically includes a thorough hand wash, clay bar treatment, polishing, waxing or sealant application, tire and wheel cleaning, and trim restoration. The goal is to restore shine, protect the paint, and remove surface contaminants.

How often should I get my vehicle’s exterior detailed?

For most vehicles, every 3–6 months is ideal. Frequent detailing protects your paint from UV rays, dirt, road grime, and environmental damage, keeping your car looking newer for longer.

What’s the difference between a wash and an exterior detail?

A regular wash cleans the surface dirt, but exterior detailing goes deeper. It removes oxidation, minor scratches, tar, and other contaminants, while applying protective coatings like wax, sealant, or ceramic coatings.

Can exterior detailing remove scratches and swirl marks?

Yes, professional exterior detailing often includes paint correction that removes light scratches, swirl marks, and oxidation. For deeper scratches, multiple polishing steps or additional treatments may be required.

How long does an exterior detail take?

Most exterior details take 1–3 hours, depending on the vehicle size and condition. Advanced services like paint correction, ceramic coatings, or PPF prep may take longer.

Interior Detailing FAQ's

What does an interior detailing service include?

Interior detailing typically includes vacuuming carpets and seats, shampooing or steam cleaning upholstery, cleaning and conditioning leather, wiping and sanitizing surfaces, cleaning vents and consoles, and removing odors. It restores cleanliness and hygiene throughout your vehicle’s interior.

How often should I have my car’s interior detailed?

For most drivers, every 3–6 months is recommended. Vehicles with pets, children, or heavy daily use may require more frequent detailing to prevent stains, odors, and wear.

Can interior detailing remove tough stains and odors?

Yes. Professional interior detailing uses specialized cleaners, steam, and extraction tools to remove stubborn stains and neutralize odors caused by spills, smoke, or pets.

How long does interior detailing take?

A full interior detail usually takes 1–3 hours, depending on the size of the vehicle and the level of cleaning required. Deep-cleaning or heavily soiled vehicles may take longer.

Will interior detailing help maintain my vehicle’s resale value?

Absolutely. A clean, well-maintained interior makes your car more appealing to buyers, helps prevent long-term damage to upholstery and surfaces, and can significantly boost resale value.
