Details: This service is designed for vehicles that have previously undergone Arete paint correction services, or newer vehicles with paint in generally good condition, looking to maintain a scratch-free finish. The service starts with a foam soak and pressure rinse to strip previously applied wax or sealant, and loosen bonded contaminants. A 24 step hand wash is performed including in-depth wheel cleaning. Bonded surface contamination is then removed first using chemical decontamination using an iron removing chemical followed up with a nano-clay bar treatment, used on all painted surfaces, glass, and lenses. A highly durable silica sealant, with a protection window of 3 to 6 months, is then applied to the paintwork along with the wheels and is allowed to cure before being returned to the customer. Tires are dressed with a non-slinging, non-greasy dressing. Exterior windows are also hand polished streak-free.
Service Recommendation: To maintain the vehicle's protection a hand wash is recommended once a month, or bi-monthly at a minimum. A follow up every 3-6 months should be performed to ensure the vehicle remains well protected from the elements. You can upgrade this auto detailing service with a high-gloss sealant to lightly cleanse the paint pores, or a high durability sealant to further extend the level of protection.
(Does not include: No imperfections (ex. scratches, swirling, and scuffing) will be removed but the paint will be left glossy and protected. Excessive tar, sap, bugs, or other severe filth may require additional charge.)
Details: This is the entry-level service to paint correction. For a Gloss Enhancement detail, the vehicle is prepared in the same way as the Protective Exterior Detail. The vehicle is foam rinsed, treated to our 24 step hand wash, wheels and wheel wells are thoroughly cleaned and decontaminated, the paint surface is chemically decontaminated using an iron-removing chemical, and a nano-clay bar treatment is performed to remove bonded contamination. A light, single step of polishing is then performed on the paint with a polish/sealant combo to amplify gloss, and to protect in one step. Swirls may be reduced with this service, depending on the vehicle. The second layer of sealant is then applied by hand to the paintwork, headlights, and taillights, to further boost the protection. The tires are dressed with a non-slinging, non-greasy dressing, and windows are hand polished streak-free. A Vac n’ Wipe can be included with this service for an additional $75 for any size. Upgrade to DQUARTZ GO for only $279 or CQUARTZ UK for $499!
Service Recommendation: This type of auto detailing service is recommended for pre-owned cars and the most discerning vehicle owners. To maintain the finish, monthly or bi-monthly hand washing is recommended. A follow up wax or sealant, after 3-6 months, should be performed to ensure the vehicle is kept protected from the elements.
(Does not include: Major paint correction. Light swirls are usually reduced to a degree, and there will be a dramatic improvement in gloss and depth to the finish. Deeper scratching will not be removed with this type of polishing.)
