Interior FAQs

What is included in your Full Interior Cleaning?

Our Full Interior Cleaning service is a comprehensive cleaning of your vehicle’s interior, focusing on all surfaces, fabrics, and materials. It includes vacuuming, carpet and seat shampooing, leather cleaning and conditioning, and detailed cleaning of all interior surfaces like the dashboard, door panels, and center console. We also clean all windows and ensure that every nook and cranny is free from dirt and grime.

How do you shampoo carpets and seats?

Carpet and seat shampooing is a key part of our Interior Cleaning service. We use a high-quality, fabric-safe shampoo that penetrates deep into the fibers to break down dirt, stains, and odors. The shampoo is applied using a brush or an agitator, and after thorough scrubbing, we use hot water extraction to remove the shampoo along with the loosened dirt. This process leaves the carpets and fabric seats clean, fresh, and free of any lingering odors.

How do you clean and protect leather seats?

Leather seats require special care to maintain their appearance and durability. We start by gently cleaning the leather with a pH-balanced leather cleaner, which removes dirt, oils, and other contaminants without damaging the leather. After cleaning, we apply a high-quality leather conditioner that moisturizes the leather, restoring its softness and protecting it from cracking and fading. This process not only enhances the look and feel of your leather seats but also extends their lifespan.

Do you clean all interior surfaces, including the dashboard and door panels?

Yes, our Interior Cleaning service includes a thorough cleaning of all interior surfaces. We carefully clean the dashboard, door panels, center console, and other hard surfaces using specialized cleaners that are safe for plastics, vinyl, and other materials. We ensure that every area is free from dust, fingerprints, and grime, leaving your vehicle’s interior looking like new.

How do you handle tough stains on carpets and upholstery?

Tough stains on carpets and upholstery, such as coffee, grease, or ink, require special attention. We start by treating the stain with a pre-cleaner that breaks down the stain’s components. After allowing the pre-cleaner to work, we use our shampooing and extraction process to remove the stain. For particularly stubborn stains, we may need to repeat the process or use specialized stain removers to achieve the best results.

How long does it take for the interior to dry after cleaning?

The drying time after an interior cleaning service can vary depending on the amount of moisture used and the ambient conditions. Typically, the interior should be dry within 2-4 hours. We use air movers to speed up the drying process, especially for the carpets and seats. We recommend leaving windows slightly open after the service to allow for better air circulation and faster drying.

Do you offer odor removal as part of the Interior Cleaning service?

Yes, we include odor removal as part of our Interior Cleaning service. Odors can be caused by a variety of factors, including spills, food, and smoke. We focus on thoroughly cleaning the fabrics and surfaces inside your vehicle to eliminate odors at their source. Our specialized cleaning products penetrate deep into the fibers to remove the contaminants that cause unpleasant smells. By addressing the root cause of the odors, we help restore a fresh and clean scent to your vehicle’s interior.

Can you clean pet hair and allergens from the interior?

Absolutely! We understand that pet hair and allergens can be a challenge to remove. Our team uses specialized tools and techniques to thoroughly remove pet hair from carpets, seats, and other surfaces. Additionally, we use HEPA-filtered vacuums to capture allergens and ensure a clean and healthy environment inside your vehicle. This service is especially beneficial for pet owners and individuals with allergies.

Exterior FAQs

What is included in your premium wash?

Our premium hand wash service includes a thorough hand wash of your vehicle, followed by a drying process using soft microfiber towels. We then apply a high-quality spray wax to all exterior surfaces, including the paint, glass, and trim. The wax provides a protective layer that enhances the shine and offers a barrier against environmental contaminants. This service also includes wheel cleaning, tire dressing, and cleaning of the exterior windows.

How often should I get a hand wash service?

The frequency of a hand wash service depends on your driving habits, the environment your vehicle is exposed to, and your personal preference for maintaining its appearance. Generally, we recommend getting this service every 4-6 weeks to keep your car’s paint looking vibrant and to maintain a protective barrier against dirt, UV rays, and other contaminants.

What is paint decontamination, and why is it important?

Paint decontamination is a process used to remove bonded contaminants from your vehicle’s paint, such as industrial fallout, tar, tree sap, and iron particles. These contaminants can adhere to the paint and cause damage over time, including dulling the finish and promoting rust. Decontaminating the paint ensures that the surface is clean and smooth, allowing for better adhesion of protective products like wax or sealant and enhancing the overall appearance of your vehicle.

How do you remove bug guts from my vehicle?

Bug guts can be tough to remove, especially if they have been on the surface for an extended period. We use specialized bug removers and gentle scrubbing tools to safely and effectively break down and remove bug splatters without damaging the paint. It’s essential to remove bug guts promptly, as their acidic content can etch into the paint if left untreated for too long.

How long does the spray wax protection last?

Spray wax typically provides protection for about 4-6 weeks, depending on the environmental conditions your vehicle is exposed to and how often it is washed. Regular washing with gentle, pH-balanced soaps will help maintain the wax’s effectiveness. For longer-lasting protection, consider upgrading to a paint sealant or ceramic coating, which can offer protection for several months to years.

What should I do if I notice water spots after a premium wash service?

Water spots can sometimes occur if water dries on the surface before it is fully wiped down. If you notice water spots, we recommend using a quick detailer or water spot remover to gently remove them without disturbing the wax layer. It’s also essential to dry your vehicle thoroughly with a soft microfiber towel after washing to prevent water spots from forming.
