Hampton roads. We travel to you as we are a fully mobile detailing service! 

A full car detail typically takes 4 to 8 hours, depending on the vehicle's size, condition, and the level of service.
* Basic detailing (wash, wax, vacuum, and wipe-down) takes about 2-4 hours.
* Standard full detailing (deep interior cleaning, polishing, and waxing) can take 4-6 hours.
* High-end detailing (paint correction, ceramic coating, or engine bay cleaning) may take 8+ hours or even multiple days.
    * Larger vehicles (SUVs, trucks) or cars with excessive dirt and stains will take longer. Mobile detailing services may also vary in time depending on equipment and processes used.

* Just your vehicle 

    * Ceramic coating offers several benefits for vehicle protection and maintenance. It creates a durable, hydrophobic layeron the paint, making it resistant to dirt, water, and contaminants. This makes cleaning easier since water and grime slide off rather than sticking to the surface.
    * The coating also provides UV protection, preventing paint from fading or oxidizing due to sun exposure. Additionally, it offers chemical resistance, shielding the car from acidic substances like bird droppings, tree sap, and road salt that can damage the paint.
    * Ceramic coating enhances the car’s gloss and shine, giving it a deep, mirror-like finish that lasts longer than traditional wax. Unlike wax, which needs frequent reapplication, ceramic coatings can last several years with proper maintenance.
    * While it doesn’t make a car completely scratch-proof, it adds a layer of hardness that reduces minor swirl marks and scratches. Ultimately, ceramic coating helps maintain the car’s value by preserving its paint and reducing long-term wear and tear.

    * Car detailing differs from a regular car wash in terms of depth, thoroughness, and results. A regular car wash primarily focuses on cleaning the exterior, removing dirt, and sometimes includes a quick interior vacuum and window wipe-down. It is typically done using automated machines or hand washing and takes about 15-30 minutes. In contrast, car detailing is a comprehensive process that involves deep cleaning, restoration, and protection of both the exterior and interior. Exterior detailing includes washing, claying, polishing, waxing, and sometimes applying a ceramic coating. Interior detailing involves steam cleaning, shampooing, and conditioning seats, carpets, and dashboards. Some services even clean the engine bay. Detailing enhances and protects the vehicle’s paint, upholstery, and overall condition. It helps maintain the car’s value and appearance over time, making it a worthwhile investment.
