Mobile Car Wash & Detailing Services in Richmond

For your paint, yes. Tunnel washes use spinning brushes or cloth strips that drag grit from the last hundred cars across yours, and that's where most swirl marks come from. We wash by hand with two buckets and clean microfiber, so the dirt ends up in the rinse bucket instead of back on the car.

Every wash gets a spray wax once the car is dry. Water beads and rolls off, dirt doesn't stick as easily, and the paint feels slick. For $30 more, we add a ceramic spray sealant over the wax, which lasts longer. Both last weeks to months depending on weather and how often the car is washed. Neither is a ceramic coating. A real coating takes paint correction and a full day or more, and we don't offer that.

Yes, as an add-on to any service for $25. It takes about 30 minutes. We spray an engine bay cleaner over the covers, hoses and plastics, let it loosen the dirt, then wipe everything down by hand. No pressure washer and no hose on the engine.

Before we leave, we check all four tires against the pressure on your door sticker and add air to any that are low. We also top up your windshield washer fluid. Both come with every service, at no charge.

Our interior detail spot-treats light stains on fabric seats and carpet. We don't do hot-water extraction or deep shampooing yet, so set-in stains may not come out completely. If you send a photo before booking, we'll tell you honestly what to expect.

Not right now. We do four things: exterior hand wash, interior detail, full detail and headlight restoration, plus a ceramic spray sealant you can add to any wash and an engine bay cleaning you can add to any of them. We'd rather do those well than list services we can't stand behind.

Most people do an exterior wash every two to four weeks and a full detail every three or four months. In Richmond, the two times an extra wash pays off are pollen season (roughly March through May) and right after the roads have been salted.

An exterior hand wash takes 1 to 1.5 hours. An interior detail takes 1.5 to 2 hours. A full detail takes 2.5 to 3 hours. Headlight restoration adds 1 to 1.5 hours, and an engine bay cleaning about 30 minutes. Bigger or dirtier vehicles take longer.
