Everything You Should Know About Car Detailing

Many people think car washing and car detailing are similar processes. But, detailed car washing goes beyond the normal car wash to make a vehicle look absolutely clean both inside and outside. On the other hand, a waterless car wash is a high lubricity pre-mixed spray product that uses chemicals to polish and wash a car’s surface. It works ideally for cars that don’t have thick dried mud to clean.

Auto Detailing includes handwashing by very experienced detailers.

Detailing has 2 components: auto interior detailing and exterior detailing.

Exterior Detailing – It includes vacuuming, restoring, and surpassing the original condition of the exterior components of a car, such as tires, windows, and wheels, etc.

Interior detailing – Interior detailing involves cleaning the inner part of the vehicle. The Interior cabin includes components, such as leather, plastics, vinyl, carbon fiber plastics, and natural fibers.

Why is Auto Detailing Important?

Taking your vehicle to a car wash is very important. However, it is good that you detail your car once in a while. A new car always has a clear coat on top of the paint. Time passes, the coat fades away due to exposure to sunlight. Without the coat, the car looks really old and undesirable.

How Auto Detailing is Beneficial to Your Vehicle.

Extends the lifetime of your vehicle

Auto detailing removes contaminants that may have damaged the car’s leather, vinyl, chrome, and paint. So, detailing helps the car depreciate at a lower rate.

Improves car’s physical appearance

After buying your new vehicle, the sparkle remains for a while. Although you can regularly take your car to the car wash, with time your car will definitely lose its outer appeal. With car detailing, your car’s original look can be restored. An experienced detailer or mechanic will make sure that all areas are checked for dust, dirt, scratches, etc.

Maintains the paint condition

Your car’s paint can be affected by dust, dirt, etc. Regular detailing provides a coat of wax to reduce scratches. Wax restores that new-car shine, and at the same time, provides a protective barrier.

Allows your engine to run cooler

With regular detailing, your engine gets cleaned of dust, leaks, and dirt. These ensure that the engine runs more smoothly.

Extends the resale value

Auto detailing specialists give your car its best look just before a sale. Professionals are aware of market standards as well as customer preferences, so they can help you improve and give value to your car’s condition. Moreover, with auto detailing, your car will fetch a higher resale value when you decide to sell it.
