Detailing as obsession, not occupation.

It depends on the package. The Essential is typically 4–5 hours. The Signature spans one to two full days, since paint correction can't be rushed. The Apex restoration is three to four days — multi-stage correction, ceramic coating, and full interior work each need their own time and dust-free curing.

Both, depending on the package. Maintenance details and lighter work can be done at your location if you have a flat, shaded area with power and water access. Paint correction and ceramic coating must be done at the studio — proper lighting, climate control, and a dust-free environment are non-negotiable for that level of work.

The product itself is rated for five to seven years. The honest answer: that lifespan assumes proper aftercare — pH-neutral washes, no automatic car washes, and an annual inspection. We provide an aftercare kit and instructions with every coating job, and we offer free annual inspections for clients to keep the warranty active.

A polish enhances gloss but doesn't remove defects — it's surface-level. Paint correction is a multi-stage process that physically removes a microscopic layer of clear coat to eliminate swirls, scratches, water spots, and oxidation. Done correctly, it's the difference between a clean car and a car that looks new again. Done incorrectly, it can permanently damage your paint, which is why technique and patience matter more than equipment.

Not when it's done properly. Every step we take — wash, decontamination, polishing — uses techniques and tools designed to be safer than what most car washes do daily. The risk comes from inexperienced detailers using wrong products or aggressive compounds. Our process is documented, our pads are colour-coded by aggressiveness, and we measure clear coat thickness before any correction work.

Yes — these are often our favourite jobs. A car that's been mistreated for years has more potential to transform than one that's already pristine. We'll do an inspection first and tell you honestly what's recoverable and what isn't. Some defects are too deep for safe correction, and we'd rather flag that upfront than promise a result we can't deliver.

Three things matter most: hand wash with the two-bucket method, use a pH-neutral car shampoo, and avoid automatic car washes — the brushes are the single biggest cause of swirl marks. We provide a written aftercare guide and recommend products by name. For ceramic clients, we also include a maintenance bottle that keeps the coating active between professional decontamination services.

For maintenance details, usually one to two weeks. For paint correction or ceramic coating, three to four weeks is typical — those bookings are limited to two or three per week to keep our quality consistent. The booking form below holds your slot, and we'll confirm the exact date once we've reviewed your vehicle and goals.
