Specialty Auto Detailing
Specialty Auto Detailing is a mobile car detailing company serving St. Petersburg, Florida. The company specializes in exterior auto detailing, and it also offers both interior and exterior service to fleet owners. A typical exterior detail starts with a thorough wash, then a clay bar and iron decontamination step to lift tar, tree sap and industrial fallout out of the paint, followed by polishing, buffing and scratch removal, and finished with a ceramic spray sealant for extra protection and added shine. Paint correction handles swirl marks, water spots, oxidation and fine scratches using machine polishers, compounds and polishes. Headlight restoration is done with a wet sanding process rather than a simple polish, then sealed with a three year ceramic coating, and the aim of the headlights is aligned as part of the service. For longer term protection the team applies Car Candy's Candy Coat ceramic coating, which is made in the USA and can be used on paint, glass, rims, leather, fabric and trim. Fleet detailing covers interior and exterior work on business vehicles, with cargo vans, work trucks and semi trucks as a specialty. Because the service is mobile, the crew brings its tools to your home, business or office instead of asking you to drive to a shop.
