We recommend a full detail once a month and minor touch-ups every one to two weeks. That keeps paint and interior surfaces protected and helps maintain resale value.
What changes the schedule
- Parked outside all day → protect paint more often
- Pets or kids → interior attention more often
- Long commutes → more road grime and bugs
- Garage kept and lightly driven → can stretch between details
What a touch-up covers
A touch-up is a lighter visit: wash, quick interior vacuum and wipe-down. It keeps dirt from building up so the full detail can focus on deeper work.
Signs it's time now
- Water no longer beads on the paint
- Seats or carpet have visible stains
- A smell that doesn't go away
- Paint feels rough after washing
