PLAN YOUR VISIT

Name the community, then show us where to park.

Foothill Ranch and Portola Hills are part of Lake Forest’s mapped community geography. Include the community name as helpful context, but use the full street address for your service request. A driveway entrance or business parking area may need its own directions.

If a crossover carries family gear all week, the wash’s interior and trunk vacuuming may be a useful starting point. For fabric spills, leather that needs deep cleaning or paint that needs more than washing, tell us the concern and we will help match a detailing package.

A visit planned around you

HOW IT’S DONE

Care in every step.

Explore what happens during your service, from the first vacuum to the finishing touches.

Mobile Car Wash · step by step

Vacuum nozzle cleaning carpet in the passenger footwell
Vacuum the cabin and trunk

We start inside, vacuuming the interior and trunk to lift loose dirt, crumbs and everyday debris.

Wipe down the interior

We wipe the interior windows, center console, armrests and seat surfaces, using a method suited to each material. This is routine surface cleaning; extraction and deep leather cleaning belong to the detailing packages.

Detail the wheels and tires

We detail-wash the rims and tires, then rinse away the loosened grime.

Clean hinges, trunk edges and jambs

We work through the door hinges, door jambs and trunk openings to remove accumulated buildup and surface grease, then rinse the cleaned areas with care.

Foam the vehicle

We apply foam soap across the vehicle’s exterior before the contact wash.

Hand wash with a microfiber mitt

We wash the body using a microfiber mitt and a two-bucket system, keeping the wash solution separate from the mitt-rinse water.

Rinse the body

We rinse the exterior thoroughly to clear away soap and loosened dirt.

Towel dry and air blow

We hand-dry the vehicle with towels, then use air to move trapped water out of cracks and crevices.

Finish windows and mirrors

We clean the windows and mirrors, checking the glass for a clear, streak-free finish.

Apply the finishing spray

Once the vehicle is dry, we apply a light detailing spray to enhance the gloss and give the finish a final wipe-down.

Add your choice of air freshener

We finish with your choice of available air freshener. Prefer no fragrance? Just let us know.

Methods are matched to your vehicle’s materials and condition. Selected extras are confirmed with your service.

Interior Detailing · step by step

We give the dashboard, center console, armrests, door panels and crevices detailed attention, matching the cleaning method to the surface.

We clean and extract carpets and fabric upholstery as appropriate for the material, working on the areas that need deeper attention. Results depend on the age of stains and material condition.

Condition interior surfaces

We condition the appropriate interior plastic and vinyl surfaces after cleaning.

Complete the included exterior wash

We clean and rinse the wheels, tires and jambs, foam and hand-wash the body with a microfiber mitt and two-bucket system, then rinse, towel dry and air blow the crevices.

Dress tires and exterior plastic

We finish the tires and appropriate exterior plastic with dressing. Dedicated faded-trim restoration is available as an extra.
