What does a full car detail include?+
The $299 Classic Full Detail bundles the complete Classic Interior Detail and Classic Exterior Bath: foam bath, hand wash, decontamination, spray-on wax, full interior vacuum, windows, jambs, and an air freshener. About 4 hours.
What is the difference between the full detail and the Masterpiece?+
The $299 Classic Full Detail cleans and protects. The $510 Masterpiece is the Master Interior and Master Exterior combined — deep wheel work, bug & tar removal, black trim restoration, mat shampoo, UV protectant dressing, and crevice cleaning. Roughly 6 hours for a near-showroom reset.
How long does a full detail take?+
About 4 hours for the Classic Full Detail on a standard car, 6 hours for the Masterpiece. SUVs, trucks, and heavily soiled cars run longer, and we give you an accurate window when you book.
What happens if it rains on my appointment?+
We watch the forecast and text you the night before if rain is coming. Light coastal mist is fine because we work under your garage, carport, or any covered spot. Heavy rain gets a free reschedule to the next clear day.
Do you need my water or electricity?+
No. The truck carries a 50-gallon water tank and a generator. We detail anywhere with curb access: driveway, street, office lot, or marina. You don't have to be home as long as the car is unlocked or you leave a key.
Do bigger vehicles cost more?+
Yes. Listed prices are for standard cars. A compact pickup or SUV adds $40. A 3rd-row SUV, van, or XL truck adds $65. That covers the extra time and product, nothing hidden.
How do I pay, and is there a first-time deal?+
Booking takes a small deposit to lock the slot. The balance — cash, Zelle, Venmo, or card — is due after the detail's finished and you've looked the car over. First-time clients get 20% off — just mention it when you book.
Which cities do you cover?+
Redondo Beach, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, El Segundo, Torrance, Rancho Palos Verdes, Lomita, San Pedro, Long Beach, Del Aire, Lawndale, Hawthorne, Signal Hill, Rolling Hills, Palos Verdes Estates, and Harbor City. Just outside that line? Text us. We make exceptions for repeat clients.
How fast can you get to me in El Segundo?+
We usually book El Segundo within a few days, and we keep a couple of midday slots open for the office-park lots near Mattel and Boeing. Reach out with your ZIP and address and we'll lock in the soonest time that works.
Do I need to be home for the appointment?+
No. The truck carries its own 50 gallons of water and a generator, so we only need access to the car. Plenty of El Segundo clients leave the keys and a note, or have us detail in their building's garage while they work.
Can you remove the gray soot film already dulling my paint?+
Yes. That dull film is embedded refinery and runway fallout. We clay-bar it out and follow with polish or a Classic Full Detail to bring the gloss back, then a ceramic coating if you want to keep the next round of soot from re-bonding.
