Fraser Valley roads are hard on paint. Highway 1 bug season, gravel-road dust, winter salt, sap under the trees — it builds up into a dull, gritty layer a drive-through wash just smears around.
Our exterior detail is a proper hand wash and decontamination. We take the outside of your vehicle back to clean, then protect it so it stays that way longer.
What's included in an exterior detail
Done by hand, wheels-first, so grit never gets dragged across your paint.
- Foam pre-soak to lift loose dirt before we touch the paint
- Two-bucket hand wash, panel by panel
- Wheels, tires and wheel wells cleaned and dressed
- Bug and tar removal from the front end
- Door jambs cleaned
- Tire shine and a clean, finished look
Want longer-lasting protection?
For paint that's past a wash — swirls, contamination, water spots — we offer clay-bar decontamination, paint sealant and scratch touch-ups as add-ons, quoted per vehicle after we see the paint.
Straight talk: we're a detailing shop, not a ceramic-coating studio. If your paint needs a wash, decon and sealant to look and feel great, that's exactly what we do — no upsell to a service you don't need.
How it works
Book online or call the shop, tell us the vehicle and how rough the outside is, and we'll confirm a time. Work happens at our Yale Road shop and we hand it back finished.
Common Questions
Do you offer ceramic coating?
We don't do full ceramic coatings. For most drivers, a proper decontamination and paint sealant gives a great, protected finish for a fraction of the cost — we'll tell you honestly what your paint needs.
Can you get bugs and tar off the front end?
Yes — bug and tar removal is part of a standard exterior detail. Heavy, baked-on contamination may need a clay-bar add-on, quoted on sight.
How much is an exterior detail in Chilliwack?
A standard exterior detail starts at $250. Protection add-ons like clay bar and sealant are quoted based on your paint's condition.
Will a wash fix my scratches?
A wash won't, but we offer scratch removal as an add-on for light surface scratches. We'll assess and quote it when we see the vehicle.
