Seasonal Indulgence Packages

Pick the perfect treatment for your vehicle,
no matter what time of year it is.

1. Frequent Washing with a Focus on Bug and Tar Removal

• Purpose: Removes bugs, tar, pollen, and dust that accumulate more in summer.
• Technique: Start with a pre-wash using a foam cannon or hose to loosen dirt. Use a gentle car wash soap with a bug remover product if necessary. Pay extra attention to the front bumper, hood, and side mirrors where bugs tend to accumulate.

2. Clay Bar Treatment

• Purpose: Removes contaminants like bug residue, pollen, and brake dust embedded in the paint.
• Technique: After washing, use a clay bar with clay lubricant to glide over the paint, particularly on the hood and bumper where bugs and road grime are most concentrated.

3. Paint Protection with UV-Resistant Wax or Sealant

• Purpose: Protects paint from UV rays and keeps it from fading.
• Technique: Apply a high-quality carnauba wax or paint sealant designed for UV protection. This step provides a hydrophobic layer, repelling water and dust. Consider using a spray-on wax between washes to maintain the shine and protection.

4. Ceramic Coating for Long-Lasting Protection

• Purpose: Offers superior protection against sun damage, dirt, and grime.
• Technique: For those looking for a durable option, apply a ceramic coating. This should be done in a shaded or indoor area to allow for proper curing. The coating helps repel dirt, water, and UV rays, making future cleaning easier.

5. Protect Exterior Trim and Rubber Seals

• Purpose: Prevents plastic trim and rubber from fading or cracking under the hot sun.
• Technique: Use a UV-protectant trim restorer on plastic and rubber surfaces. Apply a rubber conditioner on seals around windows and doors to keep them soft and flexible.

6. Detail Wheels and Tires with Summer Conditions in Mind

• Purpose: Prevents brake dust and heat-related damage to wheels.
• Technique: Use a dedicated wheel cleaner and a brush to get into crevices. After cleaning, apply a tire dressing that is non-greasy and UV-resistant to keep the rubber from drying out or cracking.

7. Interior Deep Clean and Conditioning

• Purpose: Prevents sun damage to the dashboard, seats, and interior materials.
• Technique: Start with a thorough vacuuming, including under the seats. Use a UV-protectant conditioner on leather seats, dashboard, and trim to prevent cracking or fading. For fabric seats, use a fabric protector to guard against sweat and spills.

8. Window and Windshield Treatment

• Purpose: Repels water and reduces glare from the sun.
• Technique: Clean all windows thoroughly with a streak-free glass cleaner, paying special attention to the interior of the windshield, where glare can worsen. Apply a water-repellent treatment to the exterior glass to help with visibility in sudden summer showers.

9. Air Conditioning Vent and Cabin Filter Clean

• Purpose: Ensures fresh, clean air inside the car during hot weather.
• Technique: Use compressed air or a soft brush to clear dust from air conditioning vents. Check and replace the cabin air filter if needed to maintain airflow and reduce allergens in the cabin.

10. Final Touches

• Scent Refresh: Consider adding a light, fresh scent to the interior for a pleasant summer vibe.
• Shade or Cover: Use a windshield sunshade or car cover when parked outdoors to protect from direct sunlight.
• Windshield Wiper Check: Summer storms can be sudden, so ensure your wipers are in good shape and replace if necessary.

Following these summer detailing techniques will protect your car from heat and sun damage while keeping it looking pristine and comfortable all season long!

A package focusing on paint enhancement, interior conditioning, and tire shine to give your car a warm, polished glow perfect for fall drives.

1. Thorough Wash with a Focus on Undercarriage

• Purpose: Rinse off any dirt, leaves, or road grime which will cause rust or scratches.
• Technique: Use a foam cannon or car soap to loosen dirt, followed by a high-pressure rinse, especially under the car to wash away grime and prevent rust from moisture and salt (if applied early in your area).

2. Clay Bar Treatment

• Purpose: Removes embedded contaminants like tree sap, dust, and pollutants that regular washing may not catch.
• Technique: After washing, spray a clay lubricant on the paint surface and use a clay bar to pick up contaminants. Gently glide the clay across the paint until it feels smooth, then rinse the car and dry it completely.

3. Paint Correction and Polish

• Purpose: Remove minor imperfections and enhance shine.
• Technique: Use a dual-action polisher and a light polishing compound to buff out any fine scratches or minor swirl marks. A single pass in the fall is often enough to restore shine and prepare the paint for sealing.

4. Seal with a Durable Wax or Ceramic Coating

• Purpose: Protects paint from moisture, salt, and other elements.
• Technique: Choose a high-quality wax or a ceramic coating designed for durability and weather resistance. Apply in thin layers, following the manufacturer's instructions. Ceramic coatings can last several months and are especially effective for fall and winter protection.

5. Treat and Condition Exterior Trim

• Purpose: Prevents fading and cracking in the colder months.
• Technique: Apply a trim restorer or a conditioner specifically for plastic and rubber, paying extra attention to any exposed areas. This will help maintain color and flexibility.

6. Detailing the Wheels and Tires

• Purpose: Protects wheels from brake dust, salt, and mud.
• Technique: Use a wheel cleaner designed for your wheel type (alloy, chrome, etc.), scrub with a soft brush, and finish with a sealant for added protection. Apply a tire dressing that won’t easily wash away, which will keep rubber hydrated and protect against cracking.

7. Clean and Protect the Interior

• Purpose: Prepares the interior for mud, wet leaves, and spills.
• Technique: Vacuum carpets and seats thoroughly. Apply fabric protector on seats and carpet if not done recently. Use a UV-protectant conditioner on leather or vinyl to prevent cracking, especially around the dash and steering wheel.

8. Check and Replace Wiper Blades

• Purpose: Ensures visibility during rain, sleet, and snow.
• Technique: Check for cracks or splits in wiper blades, as well as any streaking. Replace if needed and fill the windshield washer reservoir with a winter-ready fluid to prevent freezing.

9. Apply a Glass Sealant

• Purpose: Repels water, keeping your windows clearer in rainy or snowy weather.
• Technique: After cleaning the glass with a quality glass cleaner, apply a hydrophobic sealant to help rain and moisture bead off, improving visibility.

10. Final Touches

• Air Out Cabin: Let the cabin air out on a dry day to reduce any lingering moisture.
• Store Detailing Products Properly: If detailing products will be stored in a cold garage, check each product's storage instructions to avoid damage.

Following these steps will help protect your vehicle from fall weather hazards and keep it looking great well into winter!
