There are several reasons why having your vehicle detailed results in a win-win situation for you.
1. Restored to New When cars are detailed they are literally returned to the level of ‘immaculately clean’, just like it was when you first purchased your vehicle. The outside is finely and thoroughly cleaned using many different tools to help navigate around hard to reach places that hold dirt.
2. Improve Exterior Professional car detailing improves the overall health of the vehicle’s paint and exterior. Detailing a vehicle includes polishing, cleaning and waxing the car’s surface. Since the paint is there not only for decoration, but also protecting the metal underneath, the detailers ensure that they take special care of the exterior of the vehicle as well. The harsh conditions that come along with snow and winter weather also has a profound effect on the paint, sunlight can also fade the hood, bumper and the roof of a vehicle.
3. Cleanliness and Health A clean car is a healthy car. Car detailers pay extra attention to the interior of vehicles, wiping and cleaning the fabric, doors and dash board which helps with the elimination of dust mites and irritating pollen. Odors are neutralized and surfaces that were once fading can be restored to their like-new condition.
4. Improve Resale Having your car professionally detailed on a schedule improves the overall resale value of your vehicle. Some car enthusiasts say that having a vehicle detailed can raise the resale value from $100 to nearly $1,000. This is true; especially since many who purchase used vehicles don’t generally expect a professionally detailed vehicle.
5. Better Visibility Detailing also includes the wiping and cleaning of grime of the car’s headlights. Many may not notice but over time the headlights develop scratches and grime that prevent the lights to shine and reflect properly. This causes a lack in visibility, which can be quite dangerous, especially if you are traveling in the evening or late at night.
