Ready for the camera, or the car meet.
A detail before a photo shoot, a listing, a car meet or an event, done where the car is parked. We cannot promise a sale price or a perfect shot. We can make sure the car itself is not what holds the photos back.
Pick the detail for the shot.
Outside shots and listings
Complete Detail: interior and exterior, engine bay (front trunk on EVs) and spot buffing of light marks you approve. The usual pick before a listing or a shoot.
Interior close-ups
Interior Detail: seats, carpets, mats, dash, doors and inside glass, for photos where the cabin matters most.
A car that has been neglected
Elite Restoration: Complete Detail plus heavy stain spot removal, pet hair, bug and tar removal, paint decontamination, deep mat cleaning and trim restore. Quoted per car.

Plan the detail around the shoot.
- Ask early. Requests start from tomorrow, and we confirm the date and time by text.
- The day before or the morning of the shoot works best, so dust, pollen and tree sap have less time to land.
- After the detail, park in a garage or covered spot if you can, and skip the dusty road on the way.
- Rain on the day? Text us. We can talk about moving the visit.
Shoot it well after we leave.
- Open shade or the hour after sunrise and before sunset. Harsh midday sun shows every reflection.
- Turn the front wheels so the face of the rim points at the camera.
- Pick a plain background: a clean wall, an empty lot, trees. Avoid other cars and clutter.
- For interior shots: seats upright, mats in, doors open, and no phone mounts, chargers or parking passes.
- Posting online? Hide or blur the license plate, and keep house numbers and people's faces out of the frame.
- Take more than you need: three-quarter front, side, three-quarter rear, wheels, dash, seats, trunk.
Car meets and events.
Bringing your car to a meet or a show? Request a detail for the day before at your home or office. For organizers with several cars at one venue, we can only work there when the venue allows it and there is power near the cars.
What a detail will not do.
- It will not remove deep scratches, chips, dents or faded paint. We tell you before we start if something will not come out.
- We do not offer ceramic coating, paint protection film, tint, wraps, full paint correction or headlight restoration.
- We cannot promise a sale, a price or how photos will turn out.
Photo and event questions.
Will a detail help my car sell for more?
We cannot promise a sale result or a price. A detail makes the car itself look cared for in photos and in person; what buyers pay depends on many things we do not control.
Can you detail at the event venue?
Only when the organizer allows it and there is an outlet near the cars. Most of the time we detail at your home or office before you drive over.
Can you fix scratches before the shoot?
Spot buffing can make light marks less visible on small areas you approve. Deep scratches, chips and full paint correction are not something we do.
How far ahead should I ask?
As early as you can. Requests start from tomorrow, and we confirm the exact date and time by text based on availability.
