Mini Detail — every 4-6 weeks
A Mini Detail (hand wash, vacuum, windows, tire dressing) is a maintenance touch, not a deep clean. For daily drivers, bi-monthly keeps the car looking sharp without much effort. Go monthly if you park outside or drive frequently.
Full Interior Detail — every 3-6 months
Interior grime builds slowly but steadily — seat stains, dashboard dust, carpet tracks. A Full Interior Detail every 3-6 months resets the clock. More frequent if you have kids, pets, or commute long distances.
Full Exterior Detail — every 3-4 months
Exterior paint accumulates bonded contaminants (rail dust, iron, tar, bug splatter) that regular washing won't remove. Every 3-4 months is the sweet spot for a full exterior with decontamination.
Paint Correction — once, then every 2-5 years
Paint correction is a one-and-done reset. Once done, proper maintenance should extend the results for years. Most owners do a fresh correction every 2-5 years as swirls accumulate.
Ceramic Coating — every 2-9 years (depending on tier)
Match the ceramic package to your ownership timeline. Keeping the car 2-3 years? The 2-year coating at $550 is perfect. Longer than that? The Level 1 package puts down a 4-year professional coating with a one-step paint correction underneath it — $1,260 coupe, $1,450 SUV, $1,580 truck. Want the wheels, glass, trim, and lights coated too? That is Level 2, $1,960-$2,350.
Headlight Restoration — every 1-3 years
If you live and park in the San Diego sun, plastic headlights oxidize faster than you'd think. Every 1-3 years with a UV sealer keeps them clear. Garaged cars go longer.
Adjust for how you park
Garaged daily: everything gets the longer end of the range. Parked outside, frequent freeway driving, or coastal (IB/Coronado): everything gets the shorter end. Salt air and UV age paint 2-3x faster than sheltered storage.
