It doesn't matter if it's a daily driver or a supercar exotic, the Express Detail package we offer lightly handles all avenues of a detail at an affordable cost. This 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren cleaned up extraordinarily well after it received a thorough hand-wash and hand-applied durable paint sealant that lasts up to 3 months. We also washed and cleaned the wheels tires, & fenderwells and dressed the tires. We did a quick vac and wipe to the interior, multi-step cleaned the windows to leave them streak-free, and conditioned the red leather seats and door panels.
In addition to this package, we steam cleaned the engine to ensure no water would damage sensors or engine components. After all dust/dirt/grease was removed and the motor was immaculate, we dressed it with a water-based dressing that made it absolutely pop.

Lamborghini is known for their state of the art design, ingenuity, and luxury mixed with brute-force horsepower. Handcrafted and made in Italy, these Italian masterpieces are sure to put your head in the seat while everyone around you is picking their jaws off the ground.
We had the privilege to work on this fine piece of art. The 2006 Lamborghini Murciélago LP-640 has a 6.2-liter, V12 engine that fills the engine bay. Making 580 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque, Lamborghini gave their buyers the option of a six-speed manual transmission or "e-gear", a paddle-shift sequential gearbox. The Murciélago goes 0-60mph in 3.8 seconds with a top speed of 205mph. Oh yeah, and it has a full-time all-wheel-drive system.
Along with the many landmarks Lamborghini achieves, they're known for their exceptional paint quality. We were surprised how flawed the finish had become from 6 years of abuse. The picture below shows the harsh scratches on the rear portion of the hood.
We performed a Stage II Deluxe Package to this Lambo along with a steam cleaned engine detail. The Stage II Deluxe Package includes a thorough hand-wash, deep cleaning of wheels, calipers, tires, fender-wells, and finally dried with high quality chamois. We then proceeded to steam the engine so that no parts or sensors were damaged from high-pressure washers. Claybar of all exterior painted surfaces followed after this to remove all surface contaminants from the paint, leaving the clear-coat with a smooth, uncontaminated plain that was prepared to be leveled and polished out to remove the swirls, or "spider webbing" and minor surface scratches.
Next, we taped up all beveled edges and trim to ensure safety of the vehicle so that nothing would be scuffed or damaged from the polishers' pads making contact with areas of the vehicle that they should not.
After two stages of polish, tire dressing, and an applied paint sealer, we jumped on the interior where we steamed over the surfaces lightly and cleaned/conditioned all leather surfaces with a high-quality leather conditioner.
Needless to say, this Lamborghini popped! Black on black never looked so sharp. The reflection was as clear as looking into a mirror.

Do you hate dirty wheels as much as we do? Wheels that are grimy from brake dust and road dirt can make even a clean vehicle look like a clunker. We decided to write up a short tutorial of our wheel and tire wash process to really deep clean the filthiest wheel so it turns out spotless. Below is a picture of the wheel of an Audi A4 that received a full exterior/interior detail from us.
Pretty nasty!
Here are the steps to our process:
1. Wet wheel/tire with water (We use triple deionized filtered water for a spot-free rinse).
3. Scrub tire ONLY with tire brush to loosen dirt and previous tire shine if applied.
4. Spray Wheel with wheel cleaner. In most cases we use Meguiar's Wheel Brightener diluted 4 parts water to 1 part product.
**NOTE** Meguiar's Wheel Brightener is safe on most factory and clear-coated wheels ONLY. Attempting to use this product on a bare aluminum/aluminum alloy wheel can result in marring to the point of permanent damage or where the wheels will have to be multistage polished back to their original state.
5. Use a boar's hair pastry brush to clean face of wheels (spokes/anything facing you, including the lip of the wheel).
6. We use SM Arnold's professional wheel brushes, both the large and small depending on the type of wheel to get in the wheel drum or split spoke wheels and also for caliper cleaning.
7. Rinse wheel and tire with water and dry wheel with a clean microfiber towel/compressed air.
Using these steps, the wheel in the picture prior turned out to be beautiful after all, minus a little curb rash!
