Hey guys, welcome back to the Bespoke Automotive Refinement Podcast, Kansas City’s number one Kansas City auto detailing service. Guys, I am so happy to be in the studio this evening. I have a really awesome subject that I want to go over with you guys.
This one is something that could be a little bit controversial for the DIY car detailer, but I want to give some tips and tricks for guys that are really wanting to know how to keep their car clean, keep their car detailed, especially my weekend warrior guys, because I fit in that category. I’m one, even though I own a Kansas City auto detailing service, my daily driver, it can get pretty dirty, but my weekend cars, my Corvettes, my Jeep, these cars, I love keeping them clean. I love keeping them pristine.
When I get in them, I want them to feel just like they did when I drove them off the showroom floor. So I have a great subject in mind for today’s topic. Let’s dive right into it.
So when it comes to maintaining your vehicle, your weekend warrior car, if you’re not interested in detailing your car on a weekly basis, if you’re not interested in spending five, six hours on a Saturday detailing your car, some people love it. I mean, I was able to build a Kansas City auto detailing business off of my passion for keeping my car pristine every weekend, but I fully understand that a lot of guys detailing cars isn’t their passion, right? Their passion is turning the wrench, working on the car mechanically. What’s interesting is I love detailing cars.
If I could do it for free, I would, but I hate turning a wrench on a car, especially my own cars. I don’t have the patience to mechanically fix my own cars, but I love detailing. So today we’re going to cater to the guys who don’t like detailing.
They love turning a wrench on their car and they’ve got a weekend warrior. They take it to the track. They take it to cars and coffee.
They go carve the canyons. They love driving fast and they want to keep their car clean. What is the best option for keeping that car perfect? Well, number one, let’s say you just bought a new or new to you sports car.
Where do we begin? Well, we begin by doing a full paint correction and ceramic coating. The reason why we’re going to do this is you’re going to want this car to look perfect. You’re going to want this car to look flawless.
You’re going to want it to look better than any other car, whether you’re going on a spirited drive with a bunch of other car enthusiasts, you’re going to cars and coffee, you’re going to a car meet, you’re going to the track. You want to be able to park your car right next to one that’s identical to it and someone walks up to it and says, there’s something about that other one that looks better and it’s always in the finish of the paint. So, the first Kansas City Auto Detailing service that I will always recommend that you do before getting on any one of our monthly maintenance wash packages is doing a full paint correction and ceramic coating.
That full paint correction, first of all, it’s going to knock down all the factory orange peel. So, all of the wavy discoloration in the finish, it’s going to smoothen that out. It’s going to get rid of any factory sanding scuffs, which is extremely common in supercars, especially the hand-built stuff like Ferrari and Lamborghini.
It’s going to get rid of delivery marks, like light scratches, any little areas where the dealership tried to polish out a scuff that they may have put in before you take delivery of it. It’s going to make the car look literally better than brand new. And this Kansas City Auto Detailing package is really near and dear to my heart because it’s my favorite package that we offer.
I mean, I could, if I could only do paint correction for the rest of my life, I would do it because it is my passion and I love it. I love doing paint correction. So, we’re going to perform a full paint correction on your car.
And this paint correction, it’s going to take anywhere from two to four days depending on the size of the car and the condition of the paint. Next, we’re going to do a ceramic coating. Why do a ceramic coating? There’s a multitude of reasons, but the two main ones are it’s going to make it easier to wash.
It’s going to make it easier to keep clean. When we wash a car with a ceramic coating, it repels water. It repels soap.
It makes the surface super slick. And it’s almost like a wipe-on, wipe-off process. You can air dry it with a blow gun and it’s done.
But number two, that ceramic coating is going to prevent chemical etchings like bird droppings, bug guts, any degreasers that get sprayed on the car. You know, if you take it to a shop to get work done and they’re spraying degreaser right next to it and it gets on the paint, it’s not going to etch into the clear coat. And track prep.
You know, if you’re a racer like I am, you know that track prep can cause these really fine etchings all over your car and it’ll look like a metallic dot all over the finish. And that ceramic coating is going to prevent that. So the first step is we’re going to perform a paint correction and ceramic coating.
We’re going to get it protected. It’s going to be ready for you to hit the track, hit the street, carve the canyons, whatever. Next, after we’ve perfected the car, if you’ve got a weekend warrior that you take out every weekend or every other weekend and you want to maintain it with one of our Kansas City Auto Detailing maintenance packages, what we’re going to do is we’re going to show up at your house, whether you want it done on a weekly basis, a bi-weekly basis, or a monthly basis.
We’re going to hook up our pressure washer and we’re going to perform a full exterior detail. So we’re going to hand wash it. We’re going to scrub the wheel wells.
We’re going to scrub the wheel barrels. We’re going to hit the wheel faces. We’re going to knock down all the brake dust, clean the wheels.
We’re going to do a foam cannon hand wash, pressure wash the car off for you, and then with that ceramic coating, we’re actually going to air dry it with one of our high-tech blow guns. This prevents light washing scratches, right? Because if you’re a car guy, you know every time you hit that chamois to your paint or that drying towel, it’s going to put those little micro scratches in it, and that’s why we do that ceramic coating. This Kansas City Auto Detailing package, above all else, is going to not only make sure that your car looks perfect, it’s going to always be the cleanest one when you take it to any track day event, car show, car meet, spirited drive, whatever.
It is going to look brand new every time you show up, and honestly, it’s going to look better than any other car there that hasn’t been performed by us. We offer so many different Kansas City Auto Detailing services and packages, but I’m confident that this is the best one tailored to your needs if you have a weekend warrior.
