Let’s face it. No matter how hard we try to keep our vehicles fresh and clean, they all get dirty and could benefit from a deep cleaning. Since we spend a decent amount of time driving around to and from work and school, plus running weekly errands, the interior and exterior accumulate dust and debris quickly. A serious deep clean takes time and some extra elbow grease and most of us don’t have the time or the equipment to get the job done.
The professionals at Jazz Carwash and Detail want to help! With our expertise, plus exceptional products and equipment, your car will look and smell like new again. Use this guide to dive deeper into professional car detailing, and explore what to expect from a detailing service, how to choose the right service, and how to prepare your vehicle for its detailing.
Benefits of Professional Car Detailing
You take notice when someone’s car looks and feels great, and you take pride in your vehicle after an even decent car wash and interior clean. So, imagine the benefits when a vehicle is professionally cleaned and detailed! Here’s what you can expect:
- Extra Protection. A vehicle’s interior and exterior experience their fair share of wear and tear. Paint scratches, UV damage to the exterior shell, and interior upholstery or leather can be corrected and properly protected from future damage. Professional car detailing equipment and special detailing techniques — like professional grade wax, ceramic coating, and tools to refresh the upholstery — are needed for the best protection.
- Odor Elimination. That fresh new car smell is bound to wear off as time goes on, but when vehicles get an interior detail from a professional car detailing service, odors are eliminated by the removal of dirt and grime and by applying an odor-eliminating product where needed.
- Stain Removal and Prevention. A variety of materials make up the interior of your car. By using specific products, we can remove stains and add extra prevention to protect from future stains.
- Mood Booster. Clutter and debris can cause stress and aggravate allergies. Going from a lived-in vehicle to one that’s been cleaned and like new again can boost your mood and provide health benefits too!
- Increase Resale Value. Although other factors contribute to overall resale value, having a nicely maintained vehicle will help.

Choosing the Right Detailing Service for Your Car
Whether you need an express detailing service, like an exterior wheel wax with a glass window treatment, or a full-service detailing package, Jazz Detailing Professionals have you covered. But how do you know which service to choose?
Do Your Own Evaluation
Detailing services are usually broken down between exterior detailing work and interior detailing work. When you’re looking around your vehicle, what do you notice needs the most work? Does the exterior have small scratches or hard water spots? Is the interior in need of a steam cleaning on the upholstery? By breaking down the necessary work into these two categories, you’ll easily find the detailing services or packages that best fit your needs!
Ask a Professional
A professional car detailer will take a look at your vehicle (inside and out) and do their own thorough evaluation. With their keen eye, they can tell you which detailing services they’d recommend. This is also a great time to ask your questions about the detailing process, so you’re confident with the service choices.
Browse our Detailing Services Menu
Browsing the detailing services menu can be beneficial before booking your service. You may see a package with all the detailing your vehicle needs and decide that it is a better fit than an a la carte option. By looking through the options, you’ll be better equipped to discuss your detailing service when booking an appointment.
Preparing Your Car for Its Service
What? Preparing my car for it to be cleaned? Don’t I just drive it to the appointment?
If you want to get the most out of your detailing appointment, there are a few items to check off the list before arriving.
Pick Up the Clutter
If empty coffee cups, old receipts, toys, and other clutter is in the way, the time spent removing the clutter cuts into the time needed to do detailed work. Make sure you do a thorough clean-up of any trash in the car. And don’t forget to remove anything you may need during the car detailing, like your phone charger!
Clean Out the Compartment Areas
When prepping your vehicle for interior detailing work, you might consider removing the items usually kept in the storage compartments. This includes the glove compartment and the center console, but may also include pockets and other small storage spaces. Detailers don’t skip over these areas and do their best to remove items in the way, but it’s best to have it cleared beforehand.
Getting Started
Jazz Carwash and Detailing makes it convenient for you to get your car looking clean and shiny!
Add Detailing to Your Carwash
Stopping by for a regular car wash and decide to get an express detailing service? These quicker services take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour and a half and can be done after your carwash while you’re waiting in the lounge area, patio, or boutique. They don’t normally require a separate appointment.
Call to Schedule or Book Online
Don’t have time to wait after your car wash, or planning on a more intensive detailing package? Calling in to schedule an appointment or using the 24/7 online booking makes it easy to coordinate with your schedule.
Overnight Car Drop-Off
Full detailing packages take all day to finish, and it’s recommended that you leave your vehicle at the facility. A secure Dropbox is located at Jazz Carwash and Detailing for this reason. Leave your car the night before your services, and drop the keys in the Dropbox for safekeeping.
Getting your car detailed is easier than you thought! With numerous benefits, several service choices, and convenient scheduling, there’s no reason not to invest in professional car detailing services. Jazz Carwash and Detailing will make your car perfect in every last detail.
