Half day Detail

Contents

Key Points

Our half day detail is great value inside and out detail. More focused on the interior side of things. Our half day detail is a great way to freshen up your car that hasn’t had a detail in a while.

Our high quality standards set us apart and the half day detail is perfect for those looking for a good detail and the paint doesn’t need polishing. If you want a cut and polish see our all-day detail

We allow 3-4 hrs for the half day detail, previously called our pre-sale detail. We renamed it cause we believe that a cut and polish adds so much value when selling a car that a pre sale detail was not fitting.

For cars with good condition paint this offers the best value solution.  If your paint work is dull, scratched, or it needs/deserves a cut and polish we recommend looking at our all day detail where a full day time limit allows us to achieve spectacular results.
