Jeep detailing after trail days
Jeeps come home dusty, sandy or muddy, and that is the point. We clean them up by hand so they are ready for the week.
Mobile Jeep detailing in Palo Alto and nearby
Jeep detailing starts with knowing where the dirt goes. After a weekend at the beach or on a dirt road, fine dust settles in door hinges, seat tracks and the gaps around the removable panels. Our mobile team comes to your home in Palo Alto or elsewhere on the Peninsula and works through it by hand.
NOVA is independent and has no link to Jeep. We clean a Wrangler or a Grand Cherokee as carefully as any car, and we tell you plainly when something is wear rather than dirt.
Mud, dust and sand
Dried mud sticks to wheel wells, rocker guards and bumpers. We pre-soak and loosen it so we are not grinding grit into paint. Sand from Highway 1 beaches works into carpets and under the seats, so we vacuum slowly and more than once.
Rubber floor liners and drain plugs make Wranglers easier to clean, but the corners still trap dirt. We scrub liners and clean the edges where they meet the carpet.
- Wheel wells and rocker guards
- Door hinges and jambs
- Seat tracks and under the seats
- Floor liners and corners
- Rear cargo area and tailgate
Soft tops, hard tops and open cabins
Soft tops get a gentle hand wash with no harsh pressure on the fabric, and plastic windows get light pressure with clean microfiber so they do not scratch. Hard tops are washed like the rest of the body.
With doors or top off, the cabin gets more dust and pollen than a closed car. We wipe the dash, gauges, grab handles and console, and clean the seats. Any screen is wiped with barely damp microfiber, not sprayed. Removing or installing tops and doors is up to you; we work with the Jeep as you leave it.
Which package fits
A Full Detail covers most Jeeps after normal weekend use. After deep mud, heavy sand or months off the trail, Elite Restoration adds bug and tar removal, paint decontamination, deep mat cleaning and trim restore, quoted after photos.
