Benefits of detailing your vehicle
There are a ton of reasons why you should have your vehicles detailed. These aren't always obvious and often our vehicles go overlooked and become an afterthought. But just like checking your fluids and your tire pressure, detailing should at least be a bi-weekly routine for you.
Before we list off the many, many benefits. I want to talk about the cost of neglecting your vehicle. When you neglect your car, contaminants sit in your paint and deteriorate the surface. If you've had bugs sit on your bumper for too long, you know they can etch into the paint and destroy it. It first starts as a small pit, dirt, grime, or iron particle that roughs up the surface, rusts into the clearcoat, or just sticks to your paint.
Overtime, this degrades the clearcoat, and after a few years, you may notice the clear coat fading, bubbling, or even peeling off. Not all dirt and contaminants will degrade your paint at the same rate. Embedded dirt may not destroy the clear coat as much as rust, but can cause swirls marks during regular washes if not removed properly and frequently.

As well as destroying your clear coat, a vehicle that is never detailed, can just be downright ugly. scratches, marring, and even incorrect detailing can cause noticeable blights in your paint. These are the cost of never detailing the exterior of your vehicle.
When it comes to your interior, dust, dirt, and bacteria can accumulate, making it unsanitary to sit inside your vehicle. Spilling food and drinks can stain your interior and give off an unpleasant odor. Leather seats that aren't conditioned can become saggy over time and easily stain from jeans, car seats, and other things that we lie onto the seats.

Detailing your vehicle can easily solve these problems and stop them before they become worse.
Now let's list some of the benefits and positive things about detailing your exterior.
- Having a freshly detailed car means your ride is clean and protected from dirt, UV rays, and any contaminants that land on your exterior.
- We often detail cars before the owner sells them or trades them in. Having a clean vehicle always helps it sell faster, for more money.
- Safety. Having clean windows and mirrors adds to your visibility. Obviously, it's much safer to drive a vehicle when you can clearly see your surroundings.
- Look more professional. For business owners. Driving a clean vehicle is a must. And having a vehicle that is protected and easier to clean, means less time cleaning your vehicle, and more time working on your business.
- Your car is protected. This reason encompasses everything into one. Having a protected car means its easier to clean, easier to see out the window, your vehicle looks professional and retains its resale value more than other cars.

Now for some interior benefits.
- Your car smells good. This can mean a lot to your passengers, as we become "nose-blind" to what our car smells like.
- Removing allergens, dust, and bacteria. Our immune system does a lot to protect us. So a dirty car isn't often an immediate concern. But for those with allergies, weakened immune systems, or you just got over a cold, sanitizing the interior can take priority.
- Mental clarity. Nothing is better than stepping into a freshly detailed car. You can drive with a clear mind when there is no clutter to stress or worry about. There are fewer distractions in a clean car, like a dirty windshield that is hard to see past or clutter around you while you're driving.
I hope this sums up some of the important reasons to have your car detailed and what happens when you neglect your car.
