Exterior detailing
Exterior detailing.
Hand wash, wheels and wheel wells, door jambs, glass, and the rocker panels and undercarriage that magnesium chloride has been working on all winter. The de‑icer on I‑25 does not rinse off in rain — it has to be taken off.

CodeHMD-49 FinishPearl White SectionWhat the job is
What is in it, and what is not.
What the service covers
- Hand wash, top downTwo buckets and a grit guard. No brush tunnel, nothing spinning against the paint.
- Wheels, barrels and wheel wellsThe face of the wheel is the easy half. The barrel behind it is where brake dust bakes on.
- Rocker panels and undercarriageWhere the de‑icer settles and keeps working. It has to be taken off deliberately.
- Bugs, tar and road film on the front endBumper, mirrors and the leading edge of the hood, softened first rather than scrubbed.
- Door jambs, sills and sealsOpened, cleaned and dried, because that is where the grit collects and stays.
- Tires and exterior trimDressed by hand to a finish that stays matte instead of slinging onto the paint.
- Exterior glass and mirrors, done lastLast, so it stays done, and including the top edge that hides inside the seal.

CodeHMD-50 FinishGunmetal SectionTime and cost
How long it takes, and what it costs.
- How long
- Told to you on the phone A car that lives under a carport and a truck that has been on county roads since March are not the same appointment.
- What it costs
- No price list A number quoted before anyone has looked at the car is either padded or wrong, so we do not post one.
- What decides it
- Salt, sap, bugs, brake dust Those four decide whether the wash is a wash or a recovery, and they are visible before we start.
- Who it is for
- The car that has had a winter on it Nothing is damaged. There is just a season of road film sitting on top of the paint.
Slot — photography
PHOTO — rocker panel and wheel arch, before and after, same angle. The one shot this page actually needs. Nothing here yet, and we would rather show an empty frame than someone else’s stock photograph.
