The highest level of care in the detailing lineup. A complete interior and exterior reset with full paint decontamination, machine paint enhancement, deep carpet and upholstery treatment with steam cleaning and/or extraction as needed, and premium surface protection.
Condition note: Specialty restoration such as excessive pet hair or sand, severe tar or tree sap, artillery fungus, or other extreme contamination may require an additional charge.
A complete interior and exterior reset for vehicles that need a thorough top-to-bottom clean. Paint decontamination is available as an add-on when the paint needs more than a normal wash.
Available add-ons: Paint Decontamination Treatment (iron remover + clay treatment as needed to remove bonded contamination) · excessive pet hair or sand · deep carpet/upholstery treatment with steam cleaning and/or extraction as needed · heavy tar or tree sap · artillery fungus.
A quick maintenance service for a well-kept vehicle between full details. Each step is intentionally lighter and faster than a deep clean, while still being completed by hand.
This service is designed to make booking simple and the result predictable. From the initial vehicle walkaround to the final wipe-down, Professor Detail follows a clear process so every car gets the right level of care.
Every appointment starts with a quick walkaround of the interior and exterior. This is where Peter notes stains, pet hair, heavy brake dust, sap, salt, or neglected trim so the service can be tailored to the actual condition of the car.
The detail itself covers the surfaces that matter most: a careful hand wash, wheel and tire cleaning, interior air purging, vacuuming, trim cleaning, and attention to the cracks and crevices that make a car feel truly reset. For vehicles needing a higher level of refinement, The Valedictorian Detail adds full paint decontamination, machine paint enhancement, and deep carpet or upholstery treatment with steam cleaning and/or extraction as needed.
Once the major cleaning is complete, Professor Detail handles the finishing work, windows, dressings, touchpoints, and a final quality check, then recommends whether the vehicle should stay on a refresh schedule or return later for another full detail.

The Valedictorian Detail is our highest-level detailing package. It combines the complete interior and exterior reset with full paint decontamination, iron removal, clay treatment as needed, machine paint enhancement, deep carpet and upholstery treatment with steam cleaning and/or extraction as needed, premium leather care where applicable, and Gtechniq C2 ceramic sealant protection. Specialty or extreme contamination may require an additional charge.
The Full Detail is a complete interior-and-exterior reset. It includes a hand wash, light tar spot treatment as needed, wheel and tire cleaning, Gtechniq C2 ceramic sealant protection, windows, air purging, thorough vacuuming, cleaning of interior surfaces and crevices, leather cleaning, headliner spot cleaning as needed, spot stain treatment, UV protection, and more. Paint decontamination is available as an add-on when the paint has bonded contamination that normal washing will not remove.
The Refresh Detail is a quick maintenance service for a well-kept vehicle, using lighter wash, vacuum, air purge, and wipe-down steps while still including full window cleaning, tire dressing, and ceramic sealant protection. The Full Detail is a deeper top-to-bottom interior and exterior reset, with paint decontamination available as an add-on when bonded contamination is present. The Valedictorian Detail is the premium package, adding full paint decontamination, machine paint enhancement, deep carpet and upholstery treatment with steam cleaning and/or extraction as needed, and premium leather treatment where applicable.
The Refresh Detail is designed as a quick maintenance clean for a vehicle that is already in good condition. Vehicles needing deeper vacuuming, stain treatment, crevice cleaning, or a more intensive exterior reset are better suited to the Full Detail or The Valedictorian Detail.
Excessive pet hair or sand, severe tar or tree sap, artillery fungus, and other extreme contamination can add substantial labor and may require an additional charge after the vehicle is assessed.
No. Professor Detail operates from a fully equipped mobile workshop with onboard water and power, so the service comes to your driveway without requiring your hose or electrical outlet.
