What to Expect With a Full Auto Detail


Regular details don’t just make your car shine, they help you maintain the life and appearance of your vehicle. But if you’ve never had the joy of driving away in an amazingly clean car after a full auto detail—it can be difficult to know exactly what to expect.

Below, we’ve broken down the entire Premier detailing process—from drop off to pick up—so you can feel confident in your decision to work with a professional detailing team.

 

Dropping Off Your Vehicle

After you schedule your service and get to the shop—park your vehicle in our private lot on the south side of our building and follow the sidewalk around to the front door.

You’ll be welcomed by smiling staff who will be happy to see you. Simply tell them who you are and what service you have scheduled. They will take your keys, verify your scheduled service, do a quick walk-through, and let you know when your vehicle will be ready for pickup and inspection.

If you’re dropping off your vehicle after hours, there is a drop box near the front door. Simply fill out the envelope, put your keys inside, and place the envelope in the drop box. Someone will call you the next day to walk you through your service and pickup time.

Before you drop your vehicle off—remember to remove all items from your vehicle’s interior and trunk, including car seats and items in your console (if possible).

* There will be an additional charge of $50 for Iron Decontamination. If your vehicle has tar, overspray, or road paint on it, we will provide a custom quote for removal.

* Headliners are extremely delicate. Excessive cleaning and wetting of the headliner can cause it to fail, so excessive soiling may not be able to be removed.

* Removing stains is an intricate service, and while we always try to do everything possible to remove stains, we cannot guarantee full stain removal. In the event a stain cannot be fully removed, we will try to attenuate it as much as possible.

Why is ceramic coating the most elite paint protection product on the market?

Premier ceramic coating offers nano-ceramic compounds that provide the maximum level of slickness, protection, and durability.

A normal clear coat has hardness between 2H and 4H. However, ceramic coatings have a hardness above 9H. This shield is the hardest paint coating on the market today and prevents minor scratches to your clearcoat and acts as a sacrificial layer.

Think of ceramic coatings as an additional clear coat layer, only a lot harder. All of this allows for more peace of mind and a fuller enjoyment of your vehicle, even in harsh environments.

* We protect all plastics, vinyl, leather, Alcantara, carpet, and upholstery to help repel dirt, dust, and stains. We do not coat interior glass as it will cause fogging issues.

* A new tint can be applied to driver and passenger windows to match other factory-tinted windows on SUVs and trucks.
