What exterior detailing includes
- Careful hand wash technique intended to minimize the risk of adding wash marring
- Wheels, tires, and wheel faces cleaned
- Exterior glass cleaned for clarity
- Exterior trim and door jambs addressed
- Drying with clean, soft materials
Exterior detailing is not an automatic car wash
A tunnel wash pushes shared brushes and reclaimed grit across every vehicle that comes through. Exterior detailing takes a different approach: controlled washing, clean media, and attention to the areas an automated wash never reaches, such as jambs, lower panels, and wheel faces.
When to consider more than a wash
If the paint looks clean but still appears dull or shows swirl marks in direct sunlight, cleaning alone will not change that. Those are surface defects in the clear coat, and they are addressed through paint correction. If you want your finish to stay easier to clean going forward, ask about ceramic coating and paint protection.

Exterior Car Detailing FAQs
Can you detail my car outside at my apartment in Orem?+
In many cases yes. Share your parking situation when you book and we will confirm whether the location works for a mobile appointment.
Will exterior detailing remove scratches?+
No. Washing removes contamination sitting on the paint. Swirls and light scratches are defects in the clear coat and are addressed through paint correction.
How often should I have my exterior detailed?+
It depends on where the vehicle is parked and driven. Vehicles kept outdoors through Utah winters generally benefit from more frequent exterior care than garage-kept vehicles.
