Exterior Detail

Our Surgical Process

Lexus GX SUV outside Dykstra Detailing in Byron Center, MI, during the winter showcasing professional exterior protection.
  • Wheel, Tire & Fender Well Deep-Clean: We don't just spray the rims. We deep-clean the tire sidewalls, remove baked-on brake dust from the inner barrels of the wheels, and flush out the wheel wells to remove Michigan salt and mud

  • Multi-Stage Decontamination: After a safe foam bath and hand wash, we perform a mechanical and chemical decontamination. Using iron removers and clay bar treatments, we pull embedded grit out of the pores of your paint, leaving it smooth as glass.

  • The "Clean Slate" Method: We assess your vehicle's specific needs—if there is old, failing wax or stubborn road tar, we strip it back to ensure our new protection bonds perfectly to the surface.

  • Seasonal Protection: Depending on your vehicle’s needs and your goals, we finish with a premium hand-applied wax or a high-gloss polished sealant. This creates a hydrophobic barrier that makes future washes easier and protects your paint from UV rays and road grime.

  • Final Touches: We finish by dressing the tires to a deep-black (non-sling) finish and clean the exterior glass.
