What Are The Benefits Of Getting Your Car Detailed?

To keep your engine running you invest in routine services such as an oil change or coolant top-off.

Why shouldn't I just take my car to the automated wash down the street?

What is auto detailing and why do we service Redlands, CA, and the Inland Empire?

We have some questions for you. Why does it take 10 minutes to wash it myself or take it to a self-service station, and meanwhile it takes professionals hours to do it? Why can it cost up to a few hundred dollars in some instances?

The answer to those questions is within the service that you are receiving. Detailing is described as a "thorough cleaning, restoration, and finishing of a vehicle". Detailing can be described as doing everything within the professional's power to make it look brand new again. Detailing further dives into imperfections limiting the interior and exterior of your car by removing embedded contaminants not seen by the naked eye.

How does Citrus Mobile Detailing restore and protect my car?

When your car is serviced by us the process begins with our friendly customer service. Once we get started on the vehicle you can rest assured knowing that we take all necessary steps and precautions to clean, sanitize, and restore the interior of your vehicle. For the outside, we look for water damage, fallout, contaminants, and paint imperfections. After the initial inspection, our process ends up looking a bit like this.

Clean.

For the exterior, we start with a hand wash that removes all embedded road dirt and grime. After that, a clay bar compound is used to remove any dirt and fallout that the initial hand wash could not pick up. For the tires and wheels, we use an eco-friendly solution that effectively removes all brake dust and tar on the tires and wheels. Lastly, we follow up the paint with a hand-applied wax that effectively protects your paint from all harsh weather conditions and dirt. It also leaves your paint as shiny as a new car.

For the interior of the vehicle, we start by blowing out any dust in all door jambs, trunk jambs, vents, and crevices. We then follow that up with a 100% environmentally friendly steam cleaning. This allows us to reduce the impact of chemicals on the environment by strictly using water. It also allows the disinfection of up to 99% of germs. On top of the steam cleaning, we will use a microfiber soft towel and a soft brush to dust out any crevices we couldn't get to earlier. Next, a thorough vacuum is included. If needed an upholstery cleaning can be performed to remove stains and marks on your headliner, seats, floor, and floor mats. Lastly, we clean all glass and mirrors and shine your dash with a UV protectant.
