What Is The Process Of Detailing The Exterior of a Car?

Car Detailing is essential for our vehicles - especially cleaning the exterior. But do you know exactly the process of cleaning the surface? Follow this article on how it works and the products for exterior car washing.

The Process of Detailing The Exterior.

Washing the exterior involves three stages to eliminate dirt, dust, and other loose pollutants.

Washing

First, do the preliminary wash. The prep wash removes loose dirt, dust, and debris from the vehicle. Always remember to wash from the top down.

Claying

First, thoroughly wash and rinse the car. Then, using a fresh batch of car wash shampoo as a clay lubricant, clay the vehicle. Finally, rinse and thoroughly dry the car. Using detailer's clay during the preliminary wash is advised for automobiles with minimum surface contamination.

Polishing

Polishing the paint removes minor subsurface damage and shines the paint surface. A genuine polish will not preserve the paint surface; this is reserved for the waxing process. Polishing your car's surface smoothes, clarifies, and cleans it. Polishing may remove minor scratches but also damage paint, so use minimal pressure when polishing by hand.
