Prepare for your detail
You have made the decision to have your vehicle detailed so now what should you do?
#1 Know what you’re looking to have done to your vehicle and express to the Detailer your expectation of such. Each vehicle and vehicle owner have different needs and expectations when it comes to having a vehicle detailed. Some customers want their vehicles to be in showroom condition while many others just want their car to look better than it currently does.
Understanding what issues the Detailer will and will not be addressing during your detail will be imperative to you being completely satisfied with your freshly detailed vehicle.
Prepare your vehicle
Remove personal belongings from your vehicle before detailer arrives. Items may be left inside glove box or consoles but area may not be addressed by Detailer.
Remove child car seats so that the seating areas may be properly cleaned.
Trunks and truck bed should be cleaned of all items allowing for access for cleaning.
Inform your Detailer if your vehicle has had any repairs performed to the exterior or interior. Examples of such would be seat dying, paint repair, leather repair, etc.
inform your Detailer if you have any issues such as a window not operating or a seat that does not work properly.
Inform your Detailer of any special requests you may have such as wanting them to remove a stain, removal of adhesives or stickers from car or windows, odor removal, etc.
Although Detailer may give you an idea of how long it will take be patient as unexpected delays do arise.
DON’T forget to leave the KEYS as this will help ensure your battery is not drained as well as windows are able to be operated to be fully cleaned.
