To most folks, a car detail is only appropriate for a special occasion; you might get your vehicle detailed once every few years, or maybe just when you’re going to an important event. Regardless of whether you’re driving a luxury machine or a commuter car, it’s very important to understand that a good detail is like a doctor’s appointment for your vehicle; you wouldn’t wait years between checkups, and you shouldn’t go more than a year between details. Besides the fact that a good detail can substantially extend the lifetime of your finish, you’ll also appreciate a more stable car value when it comes time to move on to a new vehicle.

Protecting Your Vehicle from Wear and Tear

At Better Auto Detailing, we offer a host of different services that are designed to mitigate and reverse the natural wear of the road that every vehicle experiences. The most common exterior maintenance that we perform is a premium exterior detail, which involves the comprehensive washing and waxing of your car, RV, or motorcycle; this process also helps to root out paint damage, which we can correct on-site. For the interior of your vehicle, we bring in a steam extractor and an industrial-strength vacuum cleaner to remove stubborn stains and fine particulates like dust and dirt. Between our comprehensive interior and exterior detailing packages, combined with our specialized paint correction service, we’re able to restore your vehicle to like-new condition. However, we can’t guarantee that your vehicle won’t begin to accumulate paint damage at some point in the future, after the wax has weakened; for long-term protection, we recommend an automotive ceramic coating.

• A ceramic coating is one of the most practical investments that you can make in your vehicle; in case you’re unfamiliar with the term, an automotive ceramic coating is a microscopic film of a highly durable protective solution that bonds to the clear coat of your vehicle.
• Once your ceramic coating is applied, your finish is guaranteed to resist day-to-day wear and tear, including harsh weather, corrosive damage, abrasion from fine particulates, and most other sources of passive paint damage.
• We only apply ceramic coatings to freshly detailed vehicles for two reasons: first, a ceramic coating accentuates the look of the vehicle, so it’s important that your finish looks great before the coat is applied, and two, because if the paint isn’t cleaned properly before the application, there’s a good chance that contaminants will continue to damage the clear coat.

Maintaining Market Value

The best way to think of a detail is to consider it an investment in your automobile; by protecting your finish and taking care of small imperfections before they grow, you’ll inevitably see a return on your investment in the form of a more stable, positive market value for your vehicle. If you’re preparing to sell your vehicle in the immediate future, then starting with a comprehensive detail is a great way to get your car noticed by potential buyers while also demonstrating that you’ve taken proper care of the finish during your time with the automobile. If you’re in the Metro Atlanta area and you’re ready to make a lasting, valuable investment in your car, RV, or motorcycle, then Better Auto Detailing would love to help.
