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.

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