01 / The service

Exterior Detail + Paint Sealant.

This isn't a quick wash. Your paint gets a safe two-bucket hand wash. Wheels, tires and wheel wells are scrubbed clean. Bugs, road film, door jambs and glass are all handled, then the car is dried with clean towels and filtered air. It's finished with paint sealant for protection and deep gloss, plus tire dressing. Clay, polishing and ceramic coating are separate services.

On the day

How it runs.

  1. 01

    Wheels first

    Wheels, barrels, tires and wheel wells get cleaned before anything touches the paint, so brake dust never ends up on the panels.

  2. 02

    Foam and contact wash

    A pre-wash foam lifts loose grit, then a two-bucket contact wash with clean media. Bugs and road tar get dedicated attention.

  3. 03

    Jambs, glass, dry

    Door jambs wiped, exterior glass cleaned, then dried with filtered air and soft towels so nothing gets dragged across the finish.

  4. 04

    Seal and dress

    Paint sealant applied for a few months of protection, tires dressed to a clean satin — not a greasy shine that slings onto the paint.

From a customer

In their words.

Jake at Street Standard Detailing did an excellent job detailing both of our vehicles, inside and out. The exterior work left each vehicle looking clean and refreshed, and the interiors looked and felt noticeably better when he was finished. Jake's communication was prompt, professional, and clear from start to finish. He was upfront about his offerings, answered questions clearly, and made the whole process easy. You can tell he takes pride in his work and pays attention to the details that make a vehicle feel truly cleaned, not just quickly wiped down. Would absolutely recommend Street Standard Detailing to anyone looking for high quality interior and exterior detailing!
