What are the pros & cons of getting my car detailed?
Getting your car detailed offers several benefits, including improved appearance, protection of your vehicle’s paint and interior surfaces, and increased resale value. It can also enhance your driving experience by providing a clean and fresh environment. However, the cons include the cost, which can be higher than a standard wash, and the time it takes, as a full detail may require several hours. For reference, our fastest wash takes about an hour, while our longest process of ceramic coating can take up to a day to complete. Additionally, choosing an inexperienced detailer could lead to damage or unsatisfactory results, so it’s important to select a detailer who you trust.

what is the difference between graphene and ceramic coating?
The main difference between graphene and ceramic coating lies in their chemical composition and performance benefits. Ceramic coatings are made from silica (SiO2) and offer strong protection against UV rays, chemicals, and minor scratches, while enhancing shine and making the surface easier to clean. Graphene coatings, on the other hand, incorporate graphene—a carbon-based material known for its strength and conductivity—which adds even more durability, better heat resistance, and improved water-spot prevention due to reduced surface heat. Both are excellent options, but graphene coatings generally offer longer-lasting protection and slightly enhanced performance.
what are the pros & cons of ceramic coating?
Ceramic coating offers several pros, including long-lasting protection against UV rays, oxidation, chemicals, and minor scratches. It also enhances your vehicle’s shine and makes it easier to clean thanks to its hydrophobic properties. However, there are some cons to consider—it can be expensive upfront, requires proper surface preparation, and doesn’t make your car completely scratch- or maintenance-free. Additionally, improper application can lead to streaking or uneven protection, so it’s important to have it applied by a skilled professional.
can paint correction damage my cars paint?
Yes, paint correction can potentially damage your car’s paint if it’s done improperly or by someone inexperienced. The process involves removing a very thin layer of clear coat to eliminate imperfections like swirl marks and scratches. When done correctly with the right tools, techniques, and experience, it’s safe and highly effective. However, if too much clear coat is removed or if aggressive compounds are used incorrectly, it can thin or burn through the paint, leading to permanent damage. Although, this has been tested and the findings were that one would have to apply great pressure to an area for an extended period of time in order to “burn through” the clear coat of the paint. That’s why it’s important to trust a trained professional who understands paint depth and uses safe, precise methods.
