Section 1: Aftercare Tips (Post-Detail Instructions)

Interior Tips:

  • Avoid harsh cleaners — use pH-neutral interior sprays
  • Keep windows slightly cracked in hot weather to reduce humidity
  • Light vacuuming once a week keeps carpets looking fresh

Exterior Tips:

  • Hand wash only (avoid tunnel washes)
  • Use a two-bucket method if washing at home
  • Dry with a microfiber towel — not a chamois

Section 2: Protect Your Investment

Ceramic Coating Care:

  • Don’t wash your vehicle for 7 days after coating
  • Use ceramic-safe soaps
  • Apply a topper every 2–3 months for max shine

Paint Correction Tips:

  • Wax every 6–8 weeks unless coated
  • Park in shade or use a sunshade to prevent fading
  • Avoid bird droppings, tree sap, and automatic car washes
