Car Cosmetics
Car Cosmetics provides the tools and chemicals for a complete care routine. Get started with Detailing Sets & Kits, handle the exterior via Exterior Detailing, and refresh the cabin with Interior Care. Below you’ll find practical guidance on sequencing and safe product selection.
Brief summary + key benefits
Car Cosmetics brings together the products and tools required to clean, prepare and protect your vehicle. A structured workflow reduces marring, speeds up work and leaves durable hydrophobics. The range covers exterior and interior tasks plus the accessories and machines needed for safe contact.
Technical basics
Begin with a safe pre-wash, then a slick contact wash. Chemical (iron/tar) and mechanical (clay) decontamination remove bonded grime. A panel wipe reveals the true finish and ensures maximum bonding for waxes, sealants or coatings. Inside, use APC, fabric/leather cleaners and dedicated dressings to restore a clean, OEM-like look.
Selection criteria
Start quickly: choose a curated Detailing Set & Kit. Exterior focus: shampoos, foams, decon and protection live in Exterior Detailing. Interior: see Interior Care for APCs, fabric/leather solutions. Specialist brushes, applicators and microfibres are under Accessories. For correction, pair pads and liquids with Polishing Machines.
Application & maintenance
Flow: pre-wash → contact wash → chemical decon → clay → panel wipe → protection → maintenance. Work in the shade on cool panels; never let chemicals dry. Use plush microfibres and high-lubricity shampoos to keep contact safe. Maintain with pH-neutral wash routines and occasional quick protection.
Common mistakes & fixes
Streaks: too much product or poor towels—use less, finish with a second towel. Marring: skipped pre-wash or harsh tools—foam first and use a soft mitt. Poor durability: insufficient wipe-down—always de-oil before protection. Glossy interior glare: over-dressing—apply a thin, even layer only.
