Your Vehicle’s Exterior is Always Under Siege!
Have no doubts about the unrelenting attack on your automotive paint. All day, every day, environmental contaminants and flying road rash and debris, insecticides, chemicals, and the paint-fading effects of the sun’s UV rays have it in for your car shine! These contaminants, if left on your paint for even a short amount of time, will munch on it right down to the metal, resulting in detailer kryptonite ... rust!
In a single drop of rainwater, you will find pollen, algae, insect parts, dirt, dust, and all kinds of chemicals that leave grayish water spots and streaks. Roadways throw up asphalt, road salt, sand, pebbles, and every kind of grime. If you live or park near an industrial area or heavy foliage, add industrial fallout and pesticides to the mix! Even parking garages expose your paint to exhaust, dampness, and dust.
These elements don't just wash off. They require a certified automotive detailer like Jose Junco at High Performance Auto Detail, using innovative techniques and professional-grade products to remove these contaminants, which in many cases, have bonded to your exterior paint surface.
Always Hand-washed & Dried
High Performance Auto Detailing begins with a lubricating foam soak and inch-by-inch hand-wash. This hands-on approach lets Jose Junco monitor any potential issues where your paint may be breaking down, or where oxidation is settling in to cloud your paint. He can make recommendations for keeping your paint healthy and head off any potential long-term problems.
We clean hard to get to places like creases around your trim and any emblems or graphics, and we get inside places like your door jambs, fuel door, and the lower bumpers and panels where road debris often sticks like glue.
Clay Bar to Fight the War on Your Paint
Next we use a special detailer's clay that safely and effectively loosens and removes environmental contaminants from the paint surface of your vehicle.
If you have ever tried to to wash off the pasty ammonia and urine (uric acid) that makes up migratory bird droppings from your car's exterior, you know that it is 100 percent insoluble in water. When exposed to rain, dew, and humidity, then baked onto the surface with California's near perpetual sunshine, the caustic ammonium hydroxide mixture softens the shiny clear coat on its way to its ultimate meal — your paint!
The result of a clay bar treatment is a slick, smooth surface that makes washing your car faster and easier as well.
Clay bar also removes rough scars we call “etchings”, caused by other dangerous attacks like acid rain, salty air, and chemicals that attack your vehicle when driving or parked anywhere outdoors.
We then clean and dress your tires so they are rich and glossy, and clean and polish the metal surfaces of your wheel wells and trim so they glisten in the California sun. With experience polishing difficult bright work surfaces on the Air Force One project, you are in expert hands with High Performance!
