Where do you want to start?

Three routes into the range, depending on what your car needs most today.

START

Washing & Pre-Wash

New to detailing

Every detail starts with a proper pre-wash. Snow foam and shampoo lift most of the dirt before a mitt ever touches the paint.

  • Snow foams for a contact-free pass
  • pH-neutral shampoos, wax-safe
  • Concentrates go much further

WHEELS

Wheels & Tyres

Brake dust every week

Wheels are the dirtiest part of the car, so they always come first. Dedicated cleaners shift baked-on brake dust that shampoo simply leaves behind.

  • Cleaners for baked-on brake dust
  • Safe on most factory finishes
  • Tyre dressings, matt or glossy

INSIDE

Interior & Leather

Family cars and vans

Passengers judge the cabin before they ever look at the paint. Plastic and fabric cleaners, leather care and scents handle the inside top to bottom.

  • APCs for plastics and fabric
  • Leather cleaners and creams
  • Scents, including the LADY line

Car detailing, explained honestly

The questions we get asked most, answered without the sales talk.

What is car detailing?

Detailing is cleaning a car properly, surface by surface, rather than giving it a quick wash. The aim is to remove dirt without adding scratches, then protect what you have just cleaned. It covers paint, glass, wheels, trim, plastics, leather and fabric. Done regularly, it keeps a car looking newer for longer and holds its value better.

What does detailing a car include?

A full detail runs in a set order: wheels and arches, pre-wash, contact wash, dry, decontaminate, protect, then the interior. Each stage has its own chemical — a wheel cleaner will not do the job of a shampoo, and an all-purpose cleaner is wrong on leather. You do not need every stage every time; most people wash fortnightly and do the deeper stages two or three times a year.

How much does detailing a car cost?

Booked in as a service the price swings wildly, so we will not quote figures we cannot stand behind. Doing it yourself changes the maths: one set of products covers many washes, and concentrates stretch much further than ready-to-use bottles. A sensible starter set is a snow foam, a shampoo, a wheel cleaner, an interior cleaner and something to protect the paint.

Step by step

  1. Wheels, pre-washWheels and arches first, then snow foam the whole car so most of the grit rinses away before you touch it.
  2. Contact washTwo buckets, a soft mitt and a pH-neutral shampoo, working top down and rinsing the mitt often.
  3. DecontaminateTwo or three times a year, clay and an iron remover pull out embedded fallout that no wash will shift.
  4. Protect & interiorFinish with a wax, sealant or quick detailer, then move inside: plastics, glass, leather and a scent.
Check the V-number

A V-number on the label means it is the newest version of that recipe. If a bottle you have used for years behaves differently, the dilution may have moved with it — read the label rather than going from memory.

Common questions

Short, straight answers on products, technique and delivery.

What is car detailer spray?

A quick detailer is a light spray you mist onto clean paint and buff off with a microfibre. It clears dust, fingerprints and light smears between washes, and adds a little gloss and slickness. It is not a substitute for a wash — used on a genuinely dirty car it drags grit across the paint.

What does a car detailer do?

A detailer works through the car in stages rather than washing it all at once: wheels, pre-wash, contact wash, decontamination, protection, then the interior. Most of the skill is in the order and the technique, not in secret products. What a detailer uses day to day is in this category.

Is car detailing worth it?

If you keep your cars for a few years, yes. Washing with the right chemicals stops swirl marks and stains building up, and protected paint is easier to clean next time. Be realistic about time, though — a full detail is a half-day job, a maintenance wash closer to an hour.

Concentrate or ready-to-use bottle?

Concentrates cost less per wash and stretch much further. Ready-to-use is quicker and harder to get wrong, so it is a fair place to start. Our BASIC line is the honest entry level; the LADY line is the same idea with softer scents.

Where do you ship from?

Everything is held in UK stock and sent from the UK, so there is no customs paperwork and no long wait. It ships from UK stock and goes out tracked, so you can follow it from our door to yours. UK delivery is free on orders over £100.
