Exterior Detailing FAQ for New Mexico

How often should I get exterior detailing?

We recommend exterior detailing every 3-6 months, depending on your driving conditions. If you park outdoors, drive frequently, or live in an area with harsh weather, consider more frequent service.

What's the difference between exterior detailing and a car wash?

A car wash only removes surface dirt. Exterior detailing includes decontamination, paint correction, and protective treatments that a car wash cannot provide. Detailing restores and protects, while a wash only cleans.

Will exterior detailing remove scratches?

Exterior detailing can remove light scratches and swirl marks through polishing. Deep scratches that go through the clear coat may require more intensive paint correction or touch-up work.

How long does exterior detailing last?

The protective effects of exterior detailing typically last 2-4 months with regular washing. Ceramic coatings or sealants can extend protection to 6-12 months or longer.

Is exterior detailing safe for all paint types?

Yes, professional detailers use products and techniques appropriate for all paint types, including modern water-based paints, clear coats, and matte finishes.
