Exterior Wash with Ceramic Enhancement (8-Step Service)

For vehicles with existing ceramic protection that need a reset, not a full recoat. This service restores the gloss, water-beading, and slickness of your ceramic finish by deep cle aning, decontaminating, and applying a new layer of protection over the original coating. Includes a basic interior vacuum, wipe-down, and glass cleaning so the entire vehicle looks and feels refreshed. Griot’s 3-in-1 Ceramic Wax lasts up to 12 months. When paired with HydroSerum touch-ups every 6 months, you can maintain water-beading and shine for 12–18 months. After two refreshes, we recommend a full exterior detail to clean, polish, and restore the base layer. Glidecoat Alpha Graphene 5-Year Ceramic Coating is built for long-term durability, but even pro-grade ceramics need maintenance. Applying HydroSerum once a year acts as a sacrificial layer, refreshing gloss and hydrophobic performance while protecting the coating underneath. With this annual touch-up, your coating will continue to perform like new for its full 5-year lifespan. Step 1: We begin with a full exterior rinse using Griot’s Garage Foaming Surface Wash applied through a foam cannon. The soap is allowed to dwell and soften grime before any contact is made. Step 2: We agitate the surface by hand using soft microfiber wash mitts and Griot’s Garage Brilliant Finish Car Wash in a two-bucket system, cleaning from the roof down. Wheels and wheel wells are cleaned using Griot’s Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner. We scrub wheel faces with the Griot’s Garage Microfiber Wheel Wash Mitts, reach into barrels with the Griot’s Garage Microfiber Wheel Wand & EZ Detail Wands, and clean inner fender liners using the Griot’s Garage Long EZ Detail Wand. The vehicle is then rinsed and hand-dried using microfiber drying towels. Step 3: We perform a full-body decontamination using the Griot’s Garage Fine Surface Prep Mitt lubricated with Brilliant Finish Car Wash. This removes bonded contaminants such as overspray, industrial fallout, or hard water deposits. Once complete, the entire vehicle is rinsed thoroughly to remove loosened debris and soap residue. Step 4: After drying, We apply HydroSerum by hand using a microfiber applicator, allowing it to dry for 2–5 minutes or until it displays a rainbow sheen and the applicator begins to drag. We then buff it off using clean microfiber towels to reveal a slick, glassy finish. Step 5: Exterior windows and mirrors are cleaned with Griot’s Garage Ultra-Premium Glass Cleaner to ensure streak-free clarity. Step 6: Tires are dressed with Griot’s Garage Black Shine Tire Spray to complete the vehicle’s exterior presentation. Step 7: Inside the vehicle, we remove all floor mats and vacuum them thoroughly. Rubber mats are scrubbed with Griot’s Garage Interior Cleaner and a soft brush, then wiped clean. Carpet mats are vacuumed. We also vacuum all carpeted areas, seats, and compartments, including under the seats and between seams. Step 8: All dash, console, door panels, and trim are wiped down using Griot’s Garage Interior Cleaner and microfiber towels, removing dust, fingerprints, and light grime. Interior windows are cleaned using Griot’s Garage Ultra-Premium Glass Cleaner to complete the service.
