How a detailing visit works in Tampa

Measure. Agree. Correct. Protect. We come to you, one phone call before any polishing, and a paint report to keep.

Measured, panel by panel

Paint depth read on every panel before a pad touches it.

A written paint report

The readings and every line of work, yours to keep.

We come to you

Your driveway, office or apartment lot, on the visit days for your zip.

Lovebug & water-spot safe

Etching lifted chemically first, never scrubbed off.

The short version

Five steps, always in this order

  1. Photos & quote

    Send photos in the chat or call. Somebody on Dana’s team writes a quote, usually the same day.

    Before

  2. Arrive & walk-round

    We look at the car together in daylight and under a hand light. Chips and old repairs noted.

    Visit day, arrival

  3. Measure

    Wash and decontaminate, then the paint-depth gauge on every panel, three readings each.

    Visit day, morning

  4. Correct

    A test section, then machine polishing panel by panel, checked from three angles.

    Visit day

  5. Protect & hand over

    Panel wipe, and a coating if you asked about one, then a walk-round with your paint report.

    Visit day, finish

A visit, step by step

What the day actually looks like

A correction, from arrival to hand-over.

  1. You leave it dirty, on purpose

    Don’t wash it first. We walk the car in daylight and under a hand-held light, and note chips, dents and any repaint nobody mentioned.

  2. The gauge decides the day

    Wheels, wash, iron, tar and clay come first, then the paint-depth gauge, because it has to read the paint, not the dirt on it. Eleven or twelve panels, three readings each.

  3. We call, and sometimes talk you out of something

    Say the roof reads 78 µm against 115–130 everywhere else. A second cutting pass there buys a little gloss and spends clear coat that doesn’t grow back, so it goes on the report as declined, at $0.00.

  4. Panel by panel, and nobody rushes

    Every corrected panel is checked from three angles before the next one is started. If you asked about a coating, a person talks it through with you first.

  5. You get the readings

    The wash marring is gone, the deep scratches are reduced and noted, and the roof still reads 78 µm, because none of it was spent.

What you take home

The paint report

Every reading, every line of work and every price, including anything we declined and why. Keep it: anyone who measures the car after us should find the same numbers.

Questions

About the visit

Do I need to wash the car before you come?

No, please don’t. We want to see it the way you see it every day, and road film hides some defects.

Can I be there while it’s done?

Yes, if you like. Most people carry on with their day and we hand the car over with the readings when we are done.

What if you find something unexpected?

We call you before doing anything that changes the quote. Nothing extra is done without a yes from you.

Bots On Staff · built for shops like yours

We built this one. The next one has your name on it.

What the chat on this page is doing

Ask about swirl marks and it tells you the truth: they are thousands of shallow scratches in the clear coat, clear coat is finite, and a thin panel gets refused rather than chased.

It takes a name and a number and hands it straight over. Nothing here is held, booked or confirmed, and it will not price the job.
