THE PROCESS

Our Preservation Detail focuses on maintaining your vehicle’s refined condition through a single-day process built around protection, clarity, and care. Every step is designed to safeguard the results of prior correction work — keeping your investment looking its best.

DAY 1 – DEEP CLEAN + DECONTAMINATION

Laying the foundation.

  • Wheels and wells are deep-cleaned — every bolt, lug, and caliper.

  • A foam pre-wash and contact wash strip old protection and buildup.

  • Chemical and mechanical decontamination remove embedded iron and tar.

  • Surfaces are dried and inspected under lighting to assess paint condition.

DAY 2 – PAINT CORRECTION + PROTECTION

Where depth meets perfection.

  • ​Single stage machine polishing removes 50%-60% defects.

  • Refining gloss and eliminate light oxidation and minor imperfections.

  • A durable ceramic coating seals paint for long-term gloss and protection.

  • Trim, glass, and exhaust tips receive dedicated coatings.​

DAY 3 – INTERIOR + DETAILING FINISHES

Locking it all in.

​

  • Complete interior restoration: steam, vacuum, and protect every surface.​

  • Leather treated with conditioner for a factory-smooth finish.

  • Tires finished in a rich, non-greasy satin sheen.

  • Final scent neutralization leaves a clean, refined atmosphere.​

DAY 4 – FINAL PRESENTATION & QUALITY INSPECTION

The finishing touches.

  • A meticulous inspection under multiple lighting conditions ensures every surface meets show-quality standards.

  • Glass is re-cleaned, exhaust tips polished, and tires dressed to perfection.​

  • A final interior refresh and scent application complete the experience.
