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 book a detail in San Pedro?+
Usually within a few days, and same-week is common. Text or call with your ZIP and what your car needs, and we'll lock a window. We're mobile and self-contained, so once you're booked, Patrick pulls up to your San Pedro driveway with water and power on the truck.
Do I need to be home while you detail my car?+
No. Plenty of San Pedro clients leave keys and head to work, and we run Cabrillo Beach jobs straight from the beach lot. The truck carries its own 50 gallons of water and a generator, so we don't need access to your hose or power to finish the job.
Can you remove the metallic haze and water spots from my paint?+
Yes. That haze is iron fallout from Port-of-LA dust, and a normal wash won't touch it. We use a dedicated iron-fallout spray that dissolves it off the clear coat, then handle hard-water spotting in the same visit. It's built into every San Pedro exterior detail.
