What is Car Detailing and Why It’s Important

Here at B&B Mobile Detailing & Power-washing, we take car detailing in CT to new heights! Mobile car detailing is where we come to you for your convenience and thoroughly clean and restore your car from the inside-out. Unlike your normal car wash, we come to you wherever you are! No water or power hookup needed! B&B Mobile Detailing & Power-washing dives deeper into detailing your car: removing dirt, contaminants, swirl scratches on your car’s paint, conditioning the interior materials, and adding protective layers to extend your car’s beauty and lifespan. Now you may ask yourself, “why does this matter in Connecticut?” In CT, weather takes a huge toll on vehicles.

SPRING

Exterior detailing starts with a proper wash to remove surface dirt and debris, followed by techniques like claying to remove bonded contaminants. The paint may be polished to eliminate light scratches and swirl marks, restoring its gloss and clarity. Protective coatings such as wax, sealant, or ceramic coatings are then applied to protect against UV rays, acid rain, road grime, and oxidation. Clean wheels, polished trim, and spotless glass complete the look, giving the car a fresh, showroom-like finish.

SUMMER

Summer brings hot conditions and heavy thunderstorms leaving dust, mud and other contaminants on your vehicle. These contaminants leave swirl scratches on your paint and mud all over the undercarriage of your car and tires. Not only that, but the heat from the sun oxidizes your car’s paint, leaving a dull finish over time. If you haven’t gotten our Tier 3 Paint Correction in the beginning of Spring, then B&B suggests getting our Tier 1 or Tier 2 Paint Correction in the beginning of summer, giving your car a minor paint correction and summertime shine. We recommend following up with our Tier 1 Maintenance Package every two weeks to keep your exterior clean and protected, and to keep your interior fresh looking and odorless during the summer heat for busy parents and workers. Our Tier 3 Paint Correction services are best recommended during the Spring and Fall seasons for optimum protection, with our 6 month ceramic coating for protection throughout part of the year.

FALL

As summer heat cools off in Connecticut, now is the perfect time to ceramic coat your car! Cooler and cloudy weather allows for ceramic coating to be applied properly outdoors. Hot sunny weather in summer causes paint correction coatings to dry quickly while doing a mobile detail in CT. Sometimes causing mobile car details to take longer. Some issues that mobile detailers can run into are: compound drying and pasting onto your clients car(causing scratch marks and or chalky bumps), or ceramic coatings drying to quickly— causing streak marks and improper protection for your vehicle. During the fall months, cooler and cloudy weather allows mobile detailers to treat your car to the best of their abilities whether you’re at work or at home. Getting your vehicles ceramic coated in the fall is extremely important due to harsh weather conditions ahead and Connecticut road work! Road work is common in the fall due to ideal climate conditions for paving. Paving causes dust and “dust mud” that laches onto your vehicle like paste. A ceramic coating in early fall will protect your car from this throughout the fall and winter months. For parents, fall sports will be starting up for their kids, leaving the interior of their car a fall mess. To keep your vehicle mess free and sanitized, B&B recommends rotating between our Tier 1 & Tier 2 Maintenance Packages bi-weekly throughout the Fall. 

WINTER

Winter is the most crucial time to maintain your vehicle! CT winter mobile detailing can be a tricky job. Having to work with undercarriage rot, salt build up, ice build up and muddy conditions on a daily basis. Connecticut’s harsh conditions such as ice build up, muddy conditions and salt, eat and chip away your vehicles paint and undercarriage. Jeopardizing your vehicle’s life span significantly. During winter, B&B’s Exterior Snow Package includes Snow/Ice Removal, Rinse & Wash, and Undercarriage Salt Removal to keep your vehicle’s exterior in tip top shape. We recommend our Snow Package every week for winter months, especially after a snow storm! We recommend our Interior Car Detailing Package every two weeks to keep your interior mud and salt free throughout the winter. Winter is high maintenance and here at B&B Mobile Detailing & Power Washing, we provided the highest and most exceptional mobile detail service in Connecticut year round.
