The Finer Details in Car Detailing - part 2
Paint Chip Protection
Paint chips are a very common problem for car owners and they will pop up with little to no warning. A simple paint touch-up is not a permanent solution. Even a few power washings can remove the paint!
If you want to believe that an auto bra solves the problem, you're mistaken. Vibration will cause the bra to rub the surface. Dust will get under the bra and scratch the paint. UV radiation then fades the exposed paint, although not the paint under the bra. This becomes a mess!
Cover the vehicle's vulnerable areas with a clear, chip resistant tape. The tape stays in place until it is removed and it is transparent so the paint ages evenly. There is no problem with dust.
The door edges commonly become chipped. Use door edge molding strips for good protection
Your business will grow as you gain expert industry knowledge. In order for the detailer to gain confidence from customers, they must be able to educate the consumer.
Leather Detailing
Leather is durable and lasts but it also shows wear. Cars with leather interiors need detailing on a regular basis to look half-decent.
American leather comes with a durable vinyl coating and refinishes and re-colors well. Seats that look like a detailed road map do well to be restored and this increases the resale value of a car by several hundreds of dollars.
A professional polishing process will bring you the desired. Tell them exactly what is expected of your crew. You will also want to know what your competition is. With the older vehicles, take special time and careful attention to the evaluation process. A lack of commitment is the number one cause of business failure. A good quality extraction machine supplies the heat, water pressure, and vacuum lift and does a professional job that delights the customers expectations. |
