Vehicle Detailing

Vehicle detailing is the performance of an extremely thorough cleaning, polishing and waxing of an automobile, both inside and out, to produce a show-quality level of detail. Besides improving appearance, detailing helps to preserve resale value of a car.

What is detailing?

Detailing is a more extensive service than valeting. It is an extremely thorough cleansing, polishing and waxing of your car. Particular attention is given to the paintwork to produce a show-quality finish, usually even better then when the car left the showroom. All of the rubber seals and black plastic trims are cleaned and rejuvenated, restoring a deep black natural finish.

You will be amazed how good your car will look. Detailing will create stunning results for your personal pleasure. It will also make future regular cleaning much easier

Changing your car? If you are considering changing your car, a good valet is normally sufficient enough to make your car easier to sell - and at a much greater value. Back to Top

Paint Correction

The most important process in detailing is the preparation of the paintwork prior to polishing and waxing. Referred to as paint correction, this process takes time and should not, and must not be rushed. The highly skilled task of using a rotary polisher to flatten and level the paint is the single most important step in the detailing process. Paint correction will remove 80% of blemishes such as oxidation, swirl marks, buffer trails, marring, holograms and removable scratches. The alternative to paint correction would be a costly re-spray.

Interior detailing

Detailing the interior of your car involves the use of vacuums, and the option of shampoos, cleaners, creams, protectors, brushes and swabs.

Engine Bay

Engine detailing involves cleaning the engine bay, including the removal of dirt and grease by using degreasers and specialist cleaners, brushes and swabs.

Treatments & Applications

All treatments and applications are personally undertaken by Sam Payne, founder and owner of Auto Cleanse North East.

His experience, knowledge and understanding of vehicle detailing form the basis of his obsession to offer customers a unique service.

These treatments are carried out at your home, work, large tent or in our secure garage.

Please note; Detailing enhances paintwork, but paint correction repairs it. Ask Sam about his paint correction services if your car's paintwork suffers from swirl marks, scratches or other imperfections. After all, there is no point in bringing a mirror-deep shine to an imperfect surface.
