Aftercare Guide

Thank you for trusting us with your vehicle. Proper maintenance after your detail will help preserve the shine, protection, and cleanliness of your car for as long as possible. Follow the guidelines below to keep your vehicle looking its best.

🚗 Exterior Maintenance

1. Wait Before Washing

If your vehicle received wax, sealant, or ceramic protection, please wait:

  • Wax/Sealant: 5–7 days before washing

  • Ceramic Coating: 7–14 days before first wash

This allows protection products to fully cure.

2. Proper Washing Method

  • Use a microfiber wash mitt

  • Dry with clean microfiber towels or a blower

Avoid:

  • Automatic car washes with brushes

  • Harsh detergents

  • Dish soap

  • Dirty sponges or bath towels

Washing Frequency: Every 2–3 weeks for best results.

3. Safe Drying

Always dry your vehicle after washing to prevent water spots.

Best options:

  • Microfiber drying towel

  • Touchless air blower

4. Bird Droppings & Bug Removal

Remove contaminants as soon as possible to prevent paint damage.

  • Use a damp microfiber towel

  • Use a separate mitt and bucket for wheels

  • Avoid acidic wheel cleaners unless necessary

  • Reapply tire dressing every few weeks as needed
