Exterior Detailing: Clay, Polish and Wax for a Mirror Finish

Updated on GLANZ Team5 min read

Paint that looks dull in the sun is not dirty, it is scratched. Thousands of tiny swirl marks scatter the light. Exterior detailing removes them and brings the reflection back.

The three steps that matter

  1. 1.Clay bar treatment: pulls out the bonded grit a wash cannot touch, so the paint feels glass-smooth.
  2. 2.Machine polish: levels the swirl marks and light scratches that make paint look hazy.
  3. 3.Hand wax: a deep gloss and a layer of protection on top.

Also included

  • Trim and plastic restoration: faded black trim back to black.
  • Wheel and caliper deep clean.
  • Tyre dressing.
  • Exterior glass polish.

Make it last

Wax lasts a few weeks in the UAE sun. For protection that lasts years, add a ceramic coating after the polish, while the paint is at its best.

Bring the shine back.
