Hand Wax or Sealant
Gloss you can see and a layer of protection between your paint and Virginia weather.
Protection you can watch work.
Wax and sealant both put a protective layer on top of your clear coat. Wax brings a warm gloss. Sealant is synthetic and tends to last longer. Either one helps water bead off and makes the car easier to wash.
We apply it by hand, panel by panel. Not sure which to choose? Tell us how you drive and park, and we will recommend one.

A thin, even coat goes on by hand.
Buff
Each panel is buffed with clean microfiber.
Final inspection and pickup
We check the work under good light, then walk the car with you at pickup.
