Auto detailing differs from washing or cleaning, primarily by its intent. While the purpose of cleaning a vehicle's interior or exterior is simply to remove grime, the aim of detailing is to return the vehicle to as close to its new-car appearance as possible.
Washing and Waxing
Detailing differs from a regular washing and waxing in that auto detailers often use a low-abrasive compound to remove minor paint scratches before waxing.
Interior Cleaning
Interior cleaning usually includes removing the floor mats for vacuuming, clearing away trash, and cleaning all reflective or glass surfaces with window cleaner.
Detail Brushing
Auto detailers use specialized brushes that allow them to clean out all of the tiny crevices in a car's interior.
Applying Protectants
Detailers will most often use some sort of shine and ultraviolet (UV) protector on porous surfaces such as tires, weather-stripping, dashboards and leather seats.
Cleaning Engines
A thorough auto detailing job will include cleaning the engine compartment and undercarriage.
