Paint and protection services
Paint polishing
Machine polishing brings back gloss and clarity and softens light surface marks. It suits paint that looks flat or hazy but doesn’t have heavy swirls.
Paint correction
A multi-step process for paint with visible swirl marks, light scratches or dull patches, aimed at a smoother, clearer finish than a single polish.
Ceramic coating
Applied over carefully prepped paint, a ceramic coating adds depth and gloss and makes routine washing easier between details.
Engine bay cleaning
Careful degreasing and detailing for a tidy, well-kept engine bay, whether you’re selling the car or just like it clean under the hood.
Caring for paint in the Reno climate
Reno’s high-desert weather is hard on a car’s finish in a few predictable ways.
Strong sun
Long, bright summers mean a lot of direct sun on paint, trim and headlights. Keeping the surface clean and protected helps it hold its gloss, and a ceramic coating adds a layer that makes upkeep simpler.
Dust and wash technique
Fine dust sits on paint between washes. Wiping or washing it the wrong way can drag it across the surface, so we hand wash with a careful technique that helps avoid swirl marks.
Winter road film
Snowy months leave road grime and de-icer on lower panels, wheels and door jambs. Washing it off regularly through winter keeps it from building up, which is why the Exterior Wash includes wheels, tires and door jambs.
Exterior detailing questions
Is the exterior wash available on its own?
The Exterior Wash is offered as a $75 add-on to Mobile Basic Detailing or Premium Detail. For exterior-only work such as polishing, paint correction or ceramic coating, call 775-476-9981 for a quote.
What’s the difference between polishing and paint correction?
Polishing boosts gloss and softens light surface marks. Paint correction is a multi-step process aimed at reducing swirl marks, light scratches and dull areas more thoroughly.
Does paint need to be prepped before ceramic coating?
Yes. A coating is applied over carefully prepped paint. Call us and we’ll talk through what your vehicle needs before it’s coated.
Do you clean door jambs and wheels?
Yes. Door jamb cleaning and wheel and tire cleaning are part of the Exterior Wash add-on, along with tire shine.
