Absolutely! There are many benefits to having a car detailed, and not just for cosmetic purposes. A car detail service will make a used vehicle look new, and it will give the interior an opportunity to breathe (removing harmful contaminants such as smoke odors can be very beneficial).

This one is entirely up to you! A basic detail includes a wash, wax, and vacuum. A full detail adds a few more elements to the list: interior & engine bay cleaning, leather conditioning, carpet shampooing, window tint removal (if applicable), and often times headlight restoration as well.

This all depends on how often you drive your vehicle. If you have a daily driver, it's best to get the exterior professionally detailed every 3-6 months. An annual detail is a good idea for classic or newer models that will be going up for sale within the year.

The inside should also be cleaned every 1-3 months to keep your vehicle looking its best. This includes interior cleaning products to remove dirt, mildew, and odors.

Typically, you'll want to have your car detailed before putting it up for sale. This will help make sure potential buyers are attracted, and it increases your vehicle's value!

A nice polished auto detailing can be done at any time, though. If you just got a new paint job done on your vehicle and want to make sure it's protected, a good time for detailing would be immediately after the paint job.
