Car detailing FAQs and answers

We have compiled some FAQ’s that we get from our valued the dealer city customers.

How long does a full car detailing take?

A complete interior and exterior detail typically takes 4-8 hours, depending on your vehicle’s size and condition. Basic detailing packages may take 2-3 hours, while extensive services with paint correction can require a full day or more. We never rush the process to ensure every detail meets our high standards.

How often should I get my car detailed?

Most vehicles benefit from professional detailing every 3-6 months. If you drive frequently, park outdoors, or have kids and pets, quarterly detailing is ideal. Regular detailing maintains your vehicle’s condition and makes each session easier. At minimum, we recommend detailing at least twice per year to protect your investment.

What's included in a basic detail vs. full detail?

A basic detail includes exterior wash and wax, interior vacuuming, and window cleaning. A full detail adds paint decontamination, paint correction, engine bay cleaning, deep interior shampooing, leather conditioning, and comprehensive surface protection. We offer customized ad ons to match your specific needs and budget.

Will detailing remove scratches from my car?

Professional detailing with paint correction can remove or significantly reduce minor scratches, swirl marks, and light oxidation through polishing and compounding. However, deep scratches that penetrate through the clear coat to the base paint may require touch-up or repainting. During inspection, we’ll assess your paint and recommend the best approach for optimal results.
