Engine Compartment Services

Cleaning your engine bay is probably the last thing you would think of when detailing your vehicle. Most people feel its really not a essential part of car care because truly you don’t see under the hood that often. But here are some reasons to consider why you should.

Reason #1: Resale value

People are impressed when they see a clean engine compartment it suggest to them that the car has been well maintained and taken care of.

Reason #2 : Engine performance

A dirty engine can run hotter from the build up of grease and grime. Cleaning your engine will not only perform and look better, but will make identifying any new or existing problem much easier for you or your mechanic to recognize.

Ie: Leak detection: oil leaks, air-conditioning Freon leaks, antifreeze leaks, brake fluid leaks etc.

This service requires 2-3 hours at a starting charge of $59.95*

Headlamp Restoration

Headlamp brightness can be drastically reduced from daily exposure to the sun's harsh UV rays; this is one of the biggest contributors to the deterioration and discoloring of the polycarbonate lens surface.  However, UV rays and heat from the sun isn't the only culprit; intense heat from the halogen bulb also has a negative effect over time...as does acid rain, humidity, insects, road debris, chemicals, vehicle exhaust, and car wash brushes.

Driving with yellowed or clouded lenses is a safety hazard. After rejuvenating your lenses you will notice that you no longer need to drive with your high beams on at night.

To restore your polycarbonate lens the process involves multiple steps to rejuvenate the lens appearance. First the lens is mechanically wet-sanded to completely remove the oxidation and physical damage. We then professionally polish out the lens to restore optical clarity and apply our UV resistant chemical clear coat sealant. Refinished lenses will have a deep, wet gloss and protection from the elements. Our restoration process will restore faded and yellowed headlights to a like new appearance and keep them looking new for a minimum of two years.

                                                               This service requires 2-3 hours at a starting charge of $99.95*for both headlamps.

Paint Correction Services

Contaminated Paint Treatment:

Nanoskin Auto Scrub Foam pads or Claying is the correct and safe way in which to remove bonded contaminants from your paintwork that regular washing cannot. These contaminants can include invisible pollutants such as industrial fallout, car exhaust and oxidization from acid rain. They can also include visible impurities such as tar spots, tree sap, insect residue, rail dust and overspray.     

All these pollutants will have a detrimental effect to your paintwork if left untreated. As these contaminants oxidize, they create rust spots within the paint. You may have seen them as tiny red or rust colored spots in your car’s clear coat.Tiny orange spots today, total paint system failure tomorrow! Nanoskin Auto Scrub Foam pads or Claying treatment is a process to decontaminate the paint, ultimately preparing it for polish and wax. This is an intense deep cleaning step that needs only to be performed once or twice a year. Nanoskin Auto Scrub Foam pads or Clay Bars will not remove scratches, swirls marks, dull or oxidized paint, or restore surface gloss.  This is accomplished by polishing the surface after paint decontamination has been performed.Now that paint decontamination has been completed, this sets the perfect base for your paint correction process.

We now can discuss a premium sealant or wax to produce that brilliant shine, depth, high gloss, and a vibrant paint finish you desire for your cars appearance.

Paint Correction describes the process of restoring and rejuvenating the paintwork of a vehicle, mostly through the elimination of surface imperfections that dull, oxidize, or haze the surface by reflecting light off in various directions, therefore detracting from a true and sharp reflection. These imperfections include things like swirl marks, fine & deep random isolated scratches, water spotting, acid rain etching and hologram effects caused by buffer trails.

This service is recommended for vehicles with paint concerns as shown in the examples below.

Paint Defect Examples

Our professional technicians start with a two or more step process of machine polishing and varying grades of compound and polish to achieve the results, which achieve that crystal clear shine.While the level of improvement will greatly depend on the paint type and condition, we are normally able to accomplish 75-95% defect removal after two or three stages of paint correction.

 Time required:  8 or More Hours. Time and price is based upon your own specific budget and each vehicle’s needs to determine the process that’s specifically tailored for your paint restoration. Before any paint correction work is scheduled, we perform a thorough Pre-Detail Assessment in person. During this assessment we evaluate the paintwork, measure the paint thickness and thoroughly discuss your concerns and expectations.

Our master technician then explains the blue-print we suggest to achieve the level of paint correction that you are looking to attain.

Premier Wax And Sealant Services

You have two basic choices when it comes to paint protection. Traditionally, the much sought-after, liquid-like, deep shine is attained through a pure carnauba paste wax. On the other side, Sealers are perfect for people looking to wax or seal their cars less often, rather than waxing multiple times a year.

For the extreme enthusiast, our technicians only use the highest of quality products determined by our years of experience and tested results we have mastered to accommodate your desired paint protection needs.

Hopefully the following descriptions will help determine for you the desired look you wish to have on your vehicle.

Carnauba Wax is the preferred car wax of collectors and concourse enthusiasts, because it creates a rich, warm glow. It doesn’t appear to sit on the paint. It transforms the paint into a deep, liquid pool that shimmers under changing light conditions. The more carnauba wax, the more shine. The very best carnauba-based car wax is only about 1/3 natural carnauba. It’s probably for the best since the price gets higher and higher as the concentration of carnauba rises.Carnauba wax naturally repels water, airborne pollutants, and ultraviolet radiation.

Carnauba waxes are very time consuming to apply and to remove, which is reflected in the cost to apply this style of paint protection to your vehicle. But by far the biggest complaint of carnauba wax is that it does not last as long as a synthetic sealant. A carnauba car wax finish will wear off in approximately 6 to 8 weeks. It depends heavily on the climate in which you live and whether or not your vehicle is garaged. Even though there are drawbacks to Carnauba waxes, it does appeal to people who want the absolute most stunning show car shine available and are willing to endure the cost every month or so to get it. Most of them will tell you it is money well spent.

A Touch Of Class Auto Detail has three choices of varying grades of Carnauba Wax to choose from based on one’s budget and desired appearance you wish to achieve.

 Synthetic Paint Sealants are suitable for extreme climates, resistant to salt, UV rays, and humidity. The most dramatic difference between a paint sealant and a paste wax is the duration of the protection it offers.A paint sealant lasts five to six months.A paint sealant is made of polymers, which are composed of tens of thousands of synthetic particles that are linked together. When a sealant bonds to your vehicle’s paint, it forms a rigid shell. Paint sealants sit on top of the paint, they are glossy and slick, but carnauba lovers will tell you they do not have the warmth and depth of a carnauba.  However, the real selling point of a paint sealant is the durability.

For the extreme enthusiast, our technicians only use the highest of quality products determined by our years of experience and tested results we have mastered to accommodate your desired paint protection needs.

In order to offer you our Touch of Class premier paint protection, we use a world class product that is a combination of both Carnauba wax and Super Polymers created with German-American Technologies.This product allows us to transform your vehicle with synthetic protection and dramatic visual impact all in one incredible paint protection service.

This service can be added for a charge of $169.95*and requires 12 hour drying to accomplished the proper application of sealant. We highly recommend this service after paint correction services have been performed, to lock in your amazing new shine.

Steam Cleaning Services

In our effort to continually look for new ways to be environmentally conscience, we have purchased a THERMA-STEEM® vapor cleaner. This allows our technicians to clean your vehicle without the use of chemicals. No harmful fumes, residues or by products are left in your fabric or interior components. Today’s manufacturers are using different materials in the construction of vehicles that do not like such chemicals and this is where our Dry Steam Vapor cleaner comes in as it will not harm these materials.

Using only water,our dry steam vapor cleaner uses a boiler to heat water under pressure up to 330 degrees internally. This allows the steam produced to be very dry, less than 5% moisture. The low moisture content and rapid evaporation of the steam protects everything from your upholstery to sensitive electronic controls found in today’s high tech vehicle. The benefit of sanitizing without chemicals, our dry steam vapor cleaner reduces the amount of water waste normally generated in old school cleaning techniques.

Where deep cleaning is not required, our technicians use the Tornador Black Z-020 with an enzymatic cleaner allowing this treatment to be used for less severe cases of staining and odor removal.

The cone-shaped nozzle and oscillating tip create a tornado cleaning action that cleans hard and soft surfaces like nothing you’ve seen before. Dirt and grime are immediately released from fabrics, carpet, and solid surfaces then easily wiped away with a micro fiber towel. Using the Tornador Black Z-020 on the dashboard, door panels, steering wheel, fabric upholstery, carpet, floor mats, and headliners surfaces dry quickly because very little liquid is used in this process.

Winter road salt, severely soiled floor mats and wet carpeting are a breeding ground for an unhealthy interior.Mold and mildew will thrive in the wet jute (cloth underlayment) or foam rubber of you cars carpeting.Car mold loves to grow between mat and carpet because its just a cozy place for the mold to grow, dark and moist! Untreated mold cancause respiratory ailments, headaches and nausea in its primary stages.

To help in the treatment of properly cleaning deep stains and odors in your interiors cloth seats and carpeting, our experienced technicians usea professional automotive carpet extractor.

Our Xtrax Xtractor operates with a 1500 watt heater a single, three-stage vacuum pump which provides 137” of water lift and 60 psi of 190⁰F cleaning solution to your interior’s soiled condition.

Carpet extractors spray the surface with hot water to quickly break down dirt, grease and grime, and then extract it immediately. This equipment allows our technicians to clean inside your carpet or upholstery fibers down to the root of your stain or odors. This deep cleaning helps break up dirt and stains that can’t be as easily removed by the labor intensive technique of using a bucket of soapy water with a sponge or brush. You wouldn't have a professional carpet cleaner clean your home’s carpets that way, so why would you use that technique on automotive carpet and upholstery?
