Car and Auto Detailing Services in Spokane WA

Purchasing a vehicle is a big investment. For many people, it’s the most expensive purchase next to a home. You need to protect your vehicle by ensuring that it undergoes routine maintenance and safety checks. However, don’t forget protecting your vehicle is more than just services like oil changes, tire rotations, and brake pad replacements. You also want to protect its exterior.

Detailing services can help preserve your vehicle’s original appearance. Even a simple coat of wax will protect the paint job, which can help keep your vehicle looking new and possibly preserve its Kelley Blue Book value. At Wendle Ford in Spokane, we understand how much your vehicle means to you. Let us help maintain it — inside and out.

Are you unsure if a detailing package is really necessary for your vehicle? Here are a few compelling reasons to consider having it detailed regularly.

It’s no secret that vehicles depreciate over time, which means you want to do everything possible to maintain the highest value possible. Should you choose to sell your vehicle down the line, you want to get the most money you can. A vehicle that is well-taken care of on the outside will command a higher resale price than one that needs a new paint job, interior carpets, etc.

Protecting your vehicle’s clear coat is important. Detailing can remove minor imperfections, but it also protects the finish from damaging elements. Otherwise, you could expose your vehicle to rust and scratches.

Vehicle wax and sealants can protect your ride from everyday hazards like pollen, dirt, small rock particles, road salt, acid rain, and more.

Spokane has harsh weather conditions, including an average of 44 inches of snow per year. It’s important to continue getting your vehicle detailed during the winter months as road salt can damage both the paint and undercarriage. Even when your vehicle is covered in snow overnight, cleaning off residual salt on the undercarriage around the wheel wells can protect your vehicle. Also, dragging snow and mud into your vehicle can cause your interior to deteriorate faster.

Does your job involve meeting clients face to face? Or, do you need to pick up clients from time to time? Any interaction that you have with potential customers is a chance to make a good impression. If you show up to a meeting in a dirty and neglected vehicle, some customers might wonder how committed you’ll be to their business.

Detailing your vehicle regularly can remove germs and odors from inside as well. There’s a huge difference between wiping down the doors and dashboard and spraying air freshener versus a deep clean, also known as carpet extraction. Carpet extraction is where we lift dirt out of your carpet fibers using a vacuum and hot water. Carpet extraction is great when you purchase a used vehicle or have a musty order that just won’t go away. Not all auto detailers offer extraction services, but we do at Wendle Ford.
