    Who is this service for?

    Exterior detailing is a good fit for anyone whose interior is already in decent shape but whose paint has collected pollen, road grime or brake dust, for commuters wanting to knock down bug splatter before it etches into the clear coat, and for anyone wanting a quick refresh between full details. If the interior also needs work, see our Interior Detailing page, or get both done at once with the Signature Detail.

    What does it cost?

    Standalone exterior detailing starts at $150 and is quoted on inspection, since factors like caked-on mud, tree sap or bug buildup can add time. For full inside-and-out pricing by vehicle size, see our Signature Detail tiers below — the exterior portion of that service reflects the same level of work included in a standalone exterior detail.

    Why does it matter in Georgia?

    Georgia's spring pine pollen coats every horizontal surface of a parked vehicle within a day or two, and if it's left to sit through morning dew and afternoon heat it can bond to clear coat and become much harder to remove. Red clay dust from unpaved roads and job sites around Walton County works its way into wheel wells and rocker panels, where it stays gritty and abrasive until it's properly rinsed and scrubbed out rather than just wiped.

    Hot, humid Georgia summers bake bug residue and tree sap onto front bumpers and windshields, especially for anyone commuting on US-78 or I-20, and that residue becomes acidic and paint-damaging the longer it's left. Sudden hard rain showers common in this area also kick mud up onto lower doors and rocker panels between washes. Regular exterior detailing with a fresh sealant gives your paint a layer of protection against all of it and makes the next wash easier.

    How long does it take and what should I expect?

    A standalone exterior detail usually takes one to two hours depending on vehicle size and buildup. We bring our own water and equipment setup, so you just need to provide a driveway or parking space with enough room to walk fully around the vehicle. [FILL IN: water/power requirement].

    Please move the vehicle out of direct sun if possible and let us know about any known trouble spots, such as tar or tree sap, before we start.
