What Mobile Interior Detailing Actually Includes

Every soft surface gets vacuumed first - seats, carpet, headliner, trunk. Floor mats come out. Seats slide all the way forward and all the way back so the rails get cleaned.

Carpet and upholstery get a hot-water extraction. That means injecting cleaning solution into the fibers and pulling it back out with vacuum. Stains that survive the extraction get spot treatment.

Leather gets cleaned with a pH-balanced leather cleaner, then conditioned. Cloth seats get fabric protectant if you want it.

Every hard surface - dash, console, door cards, vents, cupholders, switchgear - gets wiped down with the right product for the surface. Dash and door cards get a satin-finish protectant so they don't look glossy and don't attract dust.

Glass on the inside gets cleaned. That includes the inside of the windshield, which is where most of the haze you see while driving comes from.

Trunk gets vacuumed and wiped. Spare tire well gets opened and cleaned out if there's debris.

A $30 "interior clean" at a car wash is a vacuum and a wipedown with all-purpose cleaner. Carpets don't get extracted. Stains stay. Leather doesn't get conditioned. Headliner doesn't get touched.

If your car has kids, dogs, spilled coffee, ground-in dirt, or a year of buildup, a quick clean isn't going to move the needle. That's the work a full interior detail is built for.

We pull up to your driveway with the rig - water tank, power, vacuum, extractor, all the tools. The car can stay parked where it is. Most jobs run 3 to 5 hours.

You don't have to be home the whole time. As long as the car is accessible and there's a hose bib we can tap into for water, we're set.
