Clients go with a maintenance wash after their initial detail to keep their car clean year-round. You can expect a light wipedown and vacuum of the interior as well as a power wash of the paint and wheels to keep your initial detail lasting. Also, a great option if your car is new and you want to maintain the new look.
We’ll come to you at a time that works best for you and send you notifications to help you stay on top of your schedule. Life is hard, but tackling it in a clean car and an anxiety-free mindset can make a difference.
The Bling puts a layer of high-quality wax on your car after a thorough clay-bar preparation treatment. This specialized treatment removes dust and dirt from the pores on your paint that a simple wipe-down often misses. A high-quality wax will offer your paint a layer of protection while also offering a more vibrant and rich color.
The inside receives a more thorough wipe-down on top of the mini detail ensuring that those notoriously dirty cupholders are ready for coffee and the console is sticky fingers-free.
The Bling Bling steps everything from the Bling to whole new heights and leaves you smiling. We clay bar prep and then machine-polish the exterior to remove surface-level scratches and battle scars from your paint. The team then applies a high-quality wax to better guard against the outdoors.
You can see a huge difference on the inside. We shampoo your entire carpet, trunk, and all upholstery to then extract all residue to bring everything as close to new as possible. We also deep clean and condition any leather surfaces and seats to get the skin fresh, hydrated, and revitalized. Finally, we detail, inspect, and detail again all crevices, linings, and consoles.
The Wow is the ultimate car detail service. We take everything from the Bling Bling and then push it over the top. Take a look up. See that headliner? It’s spotless now. Rims – machine polished. Paint – an extra stage of paint correction that eliminates up to 80% of scratches and scuffs which alone takes two to three hours. Where a wax might last a few months or even weeks in the heat of San Diego, you get a 12-month sealant that gives an additional boost of protection and shine.
This service is great to have max once a year or if the car you love needs to be brought back to its younger years. Maintain it with a standard wash after the fact to keep the Wow factor and know that your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed!

The time it takes to clean the car will depend on the size and how recently it has been detailed.
Please note that The Mini is allotted a maximum time of 45 minutes for recurring and 1.5 hours for one time. If the car is in poor condition we recommend a higher level of detail to achieve your goal:
A full car detail will go above and beyond a normal wash to separate yourself from the crowd. Car detailers are professionals with an eye for beauty and detailing is their art. The time, product, and professional attention will not only change how you drive your car, it can increase your car’s lifetime and value.
Have you noticed scratches on your car? If the scratches have not gone through the paint then they can likely be buffed out and polished with “The Bling Bling” service for few minor scratches or “The Wow” if there are multiple and heavier scratches, usually if the car has been around for a few years. Worst case if the scratches have gone beyond the clear coat we can connect you with a local paint shop to offer you a quote.
Car detailing does not fix dents. We can connect you with a local shop for body dents, however we can help with rim dings as a separate service.
Full interior details are featured in “The Bling Bling” and “The Wow” packages. The detailing teams will perform the following during a full interior detail:
With add-ons to include:
This is totally up to your environment and how often you drive. Some clients have kids that only need a few days to obliterate the inside, so they use us a few times a month for a mini detail and then will do a full detail spaced out throughout the year.
Some clients take great care of their car and do a full detail once after summer and once around the holidays to make sure relatives are impressed.
It totally depends on you and we have options to fit every li
Cleaning and waxing your car should always involve a high quality microfiber towel as a general rule of thumb.
As another rule of thumb you want to use plenty of water as a lubricant to avoid scratching paint that has thick residue.
Power washing: Start by power washing the exterior to remove hard surface sediments. Ionized water will be the best option as tap water can leave water spots.
Clay bar treatment: Once your ride is power washed, it may benefit from a clay bar treatment which is a handheld device that further removes sediments that might be stuck deeper in the paint’s pores. This is an important step if the car has been outside since waxing while there are still small grains of rocks in the paint will create micro-scratches. You don’t want that!
Apply wax: apply a high grade wax to a waxing pad to begin. Apply the wax in small circular motions. Remove the wax using a microfiber towel.
Carnauba paste wax is recommended when choosing a wax option, or you can try using a sealant.
The detailing team will not remove child seats unless you explicitly make the request. If you do request that the team take off your child seat while detailing your car, they will not be able to put it back on for safety reasons.
Our detailing technicians are professionals when it comes to scrubbing down your ride in great detail, but they are not experts in all the different child seats, which is why they will not take action that could potentially compromise the safety of your family members.
The sad truth is that every time you take your car through a machine wash, the fabric that’s spinning on the machine is creating hundreds of micro-scratches that add up over time. If you truly love your car and care about the paint lasting a long time, there are better options. This applies both if you plan to keep your car forever or if you plan to resell it in the future.
