Why it helps a sale
The car looks cared for, which is what buyers notice first, and a cared-for car is easier to
price
Swirls and light scratches are polished out before the photos go out
A scratch through the clear coat will not polish out, and dents are not repaired. The car is
walked over first so you know which marks will go

The service
What it is, and how long it holds.
What it is
Detailing covers the wash, the interior, and, where the package says so, a machine polish. Paint
correction removes swirls, light scratches, water spots and other marks in the clear coat by polishing in
stages, so the paint looks as it did when it left the showroom.
How it works
A Rupes BigFoot, Lake Country pads and Sonax compounds do the cutting. A heavier pad takes the marks out.
A finishing pad brings the gloss back. A scratch that has gone through the clear coat into the paint will
not polish out. Before the job starts, the car is walked over so you know which marks will go.
How long it lasts
A wash is a refresh. Correction stays until new marks go into the paint. The ceramic wax package is
published at 12 months or more. Ceramic coatings, on their own page, are the longer protection.

Louis and his team are the best in the biz! Not only did they make my neglected, child and dog lived in SUV look brand new again but they were incredibly friendly, professional, and thorough. I would highly recommend Complete Car Detailing to anyone looking for a 10/10 experience!

I couldn't be happier with the service from Complete Car Detailing Cheltenham. A huge thank you to Liam and Jet, who did an absolutely amazing job on my car. From the moment they arrived, they were incredibly kind, friendly, and professional. They took great care with every detail, and the results exceeded all my expectations. My car looks absolutely fantastic, inside and out, and it honestly feels like new again. I feel so lucky that Liam and Jet were able to come out and help. Their attention to detail, hard work, and genuine care for their customers really stand out. I highly recommend Complete Car Detailing Cheltenham to anyone looking for outstanding service and exceptional results. Thanks again, Liam and Jet! You've done an incredible job. 🚗✨

FAQs
Before you hand over the keys.
Aftercare, what we will not book online, and what correction can do to thin paint.
How do I look after the car?
Ask the studio before the first wash. They will tell you what can go on the paint, and what to leave
alone.
What should I not book as a detail?
Overspray and sign removal are quote-only. So is work on anything that is not a car package on this page.
Use the custom quote for those jobs.
What can go wrong with correction?
Correction removes a thin layer of clear coat to level swirls. If the paint reading is thin, the work
stops and the studio talks to you before any pad goes on.
How long does the result last?
A wash is a refresh. Correction stays until new marks go into the paint. The ceramic wax package is
published at 12 months or more.
