Exterior Wash & Detail in Leawood, KS

A real hand wash, top to bottom, with the wheels, tires, and trim done right. We get the bugs off the bumper, the brake dust off the wheels, and put a coat of sealant on the paint so it stays clean longer. No rotary brushes, no swirl marks, just a solid wash done the way it should be.

Questions about the exterior detail

How is this different from a drive-through car wash?

A drive-through runs cloth or brushes across your paint and skips most of the detail work. We hand wash with two buckets so we're not dragging dirt back across the panels, scrub the wheels and tires by hand, clean the door jambs, and put down a sealant that actually lasts a couple of months.

Will this remove scratches and swirl marks?

A wash and sealant won't fix scratches, but it will hide light marring some. If you have real swirl marks or paint defects, that's a paint correction job — usually paired with our ceramic coating service. Ask and we'll take a look.

How often should I get an exterior detail?

For most folks, every 6 to 8 weeks keeps the car looking sharp through the year. If you park outside or drive a lot of highway miles, every 4 weeks is better. In KC winters, more often is better than less.

Does the sealant protect against road salt?

Yes — that's part of why we recommend the sealant upgrade in the winter months. It gives the paint and clear coat a thin barrier so salt and brine rinse off easier and don't bond as fast.
