By Anthony Brown


There are numerous people with vehicles and who take pride in them. Washing is a great way of keeping cars in good condition. However, if one wants to take a vehicle to its original condition when it was bought, detailing would be the solution. This is a procedure which will involve having it restored to the original appearance, in some cases even exceeding that. In considering auto detailing St Louis car owners should know what the procedure involves.

There are various aspects involved in this procedure and different tools are needed. Some of the tools include air compressor machines, foaming pads, high pressure pad, window cleaning solution among others. Mats are one of the parts of a vehicle targeted when detailing. The tools needed for this are a high-pressure hose and vacuum cleaner. They are removed and vacuumed from top to bottom.

If the mats have very tough stains and dust that has accumulated over time, they can be sprayed down using a high-pressure hose. If they are made of rubber, it is best to spray them down using water before drying them by hand. Carpets and upholstery are cleaned using gloves, shampoos and sponges. The carpets and upholstery are well vacuumed. To reach all the corners, the seats should be slid all the way forward and all the way back. In case there are stains, shampoo is applied using a cloth or sponge.

The dashboard and vents get well cleaned. Dust gets to various parts of the vehicle but when it gets to places that are hard to reach such as vents and corners, it can be a nightmare. To clean these, compressed air is used to blow it out. If the dashboard is made of leather, leather protector is used to make it have added shiny quality.

Cleaning of seats is best done using a wet-vac machine, vacuum, shampoo and other ordinary cleaning materials. The way the cleaning will be effected depends on what materials they are manufactured from. For nylon seats, a wet-vac extraction machine will be used. The device can be hired from various establishments. After use of this machine, vacuuming follows because it is possible some dirt could have loosened. Leather interiors get cleaned using leather cleaner.

Tyres may look like difficult parts to clean. However, they are easily cleaned using a methodical approach. First, the rims should be sprayed using non-acid wheel cleaners before being washed after 30 seconds. Since all dirt cannot be removed in that way, brushes and sponges are also utilized.

The vehicle is also well cleaned. The materials needed include foaming pad and polish among other cleaning materials. You will need to apply some polish to foaming pad then cover the car in overlapping strokes. This will then be wiped out using a piece of cloth. It is a procedure best done in the shade so that polish does not dry up.

Car detailing can be done individually or by professionals. In most cases however, professionals will do it exceptionally well. It is a procedure that requires lots of skill and a number of tools.
