Luxury and performance vehicles have softer clear coats, more delicate interior materials, and far less tolerance for a careless wash. Everything at our Kenilworth Avenue shop is done by hand, which is the only way this work should be done.
Paint correction is a process, not a product. Clay bar decontamination lifts embedded brake dust and industrial fallout. Machine polishing removes swirl marks and marring. Only then does wax or a coating go on, because sealing a defect in place just makes it permanent.
Our Extensive Buff Wax package covers machine buff wax, hand wax, oxidation removal, and scratch and swirl removal. The Extensive Master Detail adds full interior work and a steam cleaned engine bay.
Leather is cleaned and then conditioned, which matters more in DC than most places given what summer heat does to a cabin. Alcantara, wood trim, and piano black surfaces all get handled differently, and the crew will tell you what they can and cannot safely do before starting.
Ceramic coating is the right call on a vehicle you intend to keep. It adds gloss, makes future washing dramatically easier, and holds up against UV, road salt, and contamination far longer than wax. It is quoted after we see the paint, because the prep is most of the job.
“I love coming here to get my car washed. They're inexpensive, efficient and reliable.”
Lauren M., Google review“Best car wash I've had in the DMV. Hand car washes in my opinion are better than machines. The tire shine is A1 and they have a rewards program. Highly recommended!”
