Premium Hand Wash for Sensitive & Dark Paint

This service is designed for owners who want a careful, paint-safe wash instead of a quick tunnel wash. It’s especially ideal for darker vehicles, newer cars, or freshly detailed/ceramic-coated paint.

  • Gentle hand wash using soft microfiber wash mitts
  • Two-bucket or safe wash method to reduce swirl marks
  • Spot-free rinse and careful hand drying
  • Safer than automatic car washes and harsh brushes
  • Perfect between full exterior mobile detailing or mobile car detailing appointments

What’s Included in Hand Wash & Dry

Even though this is a focused wash service, we still follow a professional process to protect your paint and provide a noticeably cleaner finish.

  • Initial rinse to remove loose dirt and debris
  • Hand wash of all painted panels, mirrors, and exterior glass
  • Light bug removal on front bumper and mirrors
  • Rinse with clean water to remove soap and residue
  • Hand drying with premium microfiber towels to reduce water spots
  • Quick wipe of exterior glass for clarity

For vehicles that see heavier contamination, we may recommend upgrading to a Foam Cannon Wash or adding Bug Removal for stubborn build-up.

Hand Wash & Dry vs. Basic Wash

Our Exterior Wash (Basic) is a great quick clean, but Hand Wash & Dry is a step up in care and technique for drivers who are serious about preserving their finish.

  • Exterior Wash (Basic) – simple, efficient wash for general maintenance
  • Hand Wash & Dry – more careful process, ideal for dark or corrected paint
  • Foam Cannon Wash – adds a thick foam pre-soak for even safer cleaning

Perfect for Ceramic-Coated & Corrected Vehicles

If you’ve invested in paint correction or ceramic coating, a proper hand wash is one of the best ways to maintain that gloss and clarity over time.

  • Maintains ceramic coating performance
  • Reduces the chance of new swirl marks
  • Helps protect your detailing investment
