Car Detailing VS Local Car Wash. What is Car Detailing?

Professional Car Detailing VS Local Car Wash

​Taking your car to a standard car wash might seem quick and easy, but it can actually be risky. The harsh brushes, neglected wash mitts and automated systems often used can scratch your car’s paint, damage your alloy wheels, and even harm the interior leather and trims. In the long run, those small scratches and marks can lead to expensive repairs.

​Car detailing is a different kind of care. It’s a meticulous, hands-on process that goes far beyond a quick clean. When you choose a professional detailer, your car is thoroughly cleaned, restored, and protected, inside and out. We use specialized tools, high-quality products, and proven techniques to bring your vehicle back to life, whether it needs a simple refresh or a full paint correction.

​At DN Details, we stay on top of the latest innovations in the industry to ensure your car gets the best possible treatment, from removing stubborn dirt to polishing out surface imperfections. We don’t just clean your car; we restore its beauty and protect its value.

​Why Does Car Detailing Cost More Than a Car Wash?

​The difference in price comes down to time, skill, and results. A typical car wash takes less than an hour, while a professional detail can take anywhere from three hours for a standard service to 3-4 days for advanced treatments like full paint correction and ceramic coating.

​Unlike a quick wash, detailing is an in-depth process that covers every inch of your vehicle. We clean and assess all the hard-to-reach spots, from the tiny cracks in your dashboard to the hidden grime on your rims. This comprehensive approach is all about attention to detail.

​Another key aspect of detailing is protection. Many people think their car’s clear coat is enough to protect the paint, but that’s not the case. Your car is constantly exposed to environmental damage like bird droppings, road salt, and UV rays. To truly protect your finish and keep it looking its best, it’s essential to apply high-quality wax, sealants, or ceramic coatings. We apply this same level of protection to your alloy wheels and plastic trims.

​Whether you've just bought a used car, are getting ready to sell, or simply want to restore your vehicle’s original shine, a professional detail can make your car stand out and even increase its value.
