Foam and rinse
Thick snow foam is left to dwell so it loosens sand, dust and road film, then it is rinsed away, taking the grit with it, before a mitt goes anywhere near the paint.
Service 01 · Exterior
Snow foam first, then a two-bucket hand wash, panel by panel, finished with a hand dry so there is not a water spot left behind. No rotating brushes, no recycled water, no grit dragged across your paint.
What is included
The exterior hand wash is the foundation of every other service we offer. Here is what happens to your car, in order.
Want tyre dressing, a layer of spray wax or the cabin done in the same visit? Say so when you message and we will add it to your slot.
Preview photography is illustrative. The owner's own photos of the bay and customer cars replace it before launch.
How it works
The same order for every car, whether it is a hatchback or a 4x4. Skipping a stage is how swirl marks happen, so we do not.
Thick snow foam is left to dwell so it loosens sand, dust and road film, then it is rinsed away, taking the grit with it, before a mitt goes anywhere near the paint.
One bucket of clean suds, one bucket of rinse water, and the mitt is rinsed between panels. Wheels, tyres and arches are done with their own tools, so brake dust never crosses onto your bodywork.
Soft microfibre towels dry the car by hand, glass is finished inside and out, door shuts are wiped, and we walk around it under the lights before you see it.
Good to know
Usually under an hour for a standard car, and usually a little longer for an SUV, a pickup or a car that arrives caked in sand. Message us before you set off and your slot is ready when you pull in.
Rotating brushes hold grit from every car that went through before yours and drag it across your paint. That is where swirl marks come from. Hands, clean mitts and fresh water are slower. They are also the reason the finish looks the way it does.
Often enough that dust, bird droppings and sap never sit on the paint for long in the heat, because they can etch it if left. A weekly wash suits most daily drivers here. With wax or ceramic protection on the paint, the car stays cleaner between visits and each wash is quicker.
