COMMON QUESTIONSRKS
Exterior Detailing FAQ
What's the difference between a car wash and exterior detailing?
A car wash removes surface dirt. Exterior detailing adds clay bar decontamination and machine paint correction, which actually lift bonded contaminants and swirl marks that washing alone leaves behind.
Will paint correction remove all my swirl marks?
Most light-to-moderate swirl marks and fine scratches can be polished out. Deeper scratches that have gone through the clear coat may need touch-up paint rather than correction alone — we’ll tell you honestly which applies during your quote.
How often should I get exterior detailing in the Pacific Northwest?
With Renton’s rain and road film, every 2–3 months keeps contaminants from bonding to the paint long-term. Vehicles that sit outside daily benefit from more frequent details.
Do you detail wheels and tires too?
Yes — wheel and tire cleaning is included in every exterior detail, since brake dust buildup is one of the most common paint and finish issues we see on Renton daily drivers.
