STARTING AT $75
There is no question about how elaborate we go with engine detailing at Lightning Detail! First we degrease and clean the engine compartment of your vehicle before protecting and dress all components with Koch-Chemie Motorplast. This is a naturally shiny, water-displacing engine conserver. All treated engine parts will regain their like-new appearance and the power units are protected from corrosion and environmental factors.
What is Included in Our Exterior Detailing Package
Our exterior detailing process is thorough and designed to tackle every aspect of your vehicle's outer condition. We start with a two-bucket hand wash to minimize the risk of paint scratching from happening, followed by a detailed hand cleaning of wheels and tires. Next, we use a clay-bar treatment to remove finer particles and smooth the paint surface. Our exterior detailing work at Lightning Detail also includes a swirl-free single-stage paint polish that amplifies paint shine while specialized glass polishing techniques eliminate water spots. Finally, we apply durable trim dressings, no-sling tire dressing, and a professional-grade paint sealant to protect the results.

Frequently Asked Questions About Exterior Detailing
Notable Benefits of Exterior Detailing
Preventing Paint Damage by Removing Contaminants
Exterior vehicle detailing is crucial in removing contaminants that negatively affect your vehicle’s paint condition. Regular detailing sessions remove these potentially harmful substances before they have a chance to etch or stain the paint, helping to maintain the vehicle's appearance and resale value. Many heavier environmental contaminants collected during drives in the Pittsburgh area are hard to remove without the help of our professional detailing services.
Enhancing Wheel and Tire Longevity
Exterior detailing that includes cleaning your vehicle's wheels and tires is not just about the aesthetics of those surfaces. Wheel cleaning also plays a significant role in their longevity and quality, which ultimately impacts their functionality. Our exterior detailing service focuses on removing debris, brake dust, and other corrosive materials during a detailed clean, preventing premature wear and tear and ensuring that your wheels and tires stay in better condition for much longer.
Achieving a Deeper Clean
Unlike automated car washes that only do a lackluster job, missing spots or using overly abrasive brushes on your paintwork, professional exterior detailing provides a deeper, more thorough clean. When we perform an exterior detailing service, we reach every area of your vehicle’s exterior without missing anything. This is how we ensure you leave our detailing shop with a vehicle that has had all parts of its exterior immaculately cleaned and enhanced. This service far surpasses the capabilities of standard automated wash systems.
