Full Detail
My Most Popular Service 

It depends on the service, for a typical full detail it usually takes 3-5 hours. An exterior detail only 45-60 minutes. Interior only details take 2-4 hours on average.

Yes Please! It helps speed up the process and keeps me focused on the stuff that really makes a difference.

I will never ask you to pay for my service until you have seen the car completely detailed and finished. So after.

Yes, I will need a water and electric hookup in order to detail on the go. If that isn't a possibility I can use my water and electric if you drop the car off.

Waxing vs. Ceramic Coating: Key Differences

Waxing:

Protection Duration: Lasts 1-3 months.

Type of Protection: Adds a thin layer of protection against UV rays, dirt, and minor contaminants.

Shine & Gloss: Provides a nice glossy finish but fades over time.

Application: Easy to apply and remove but needs frequent reapplication.

Ceramic Coating:

Protection Duration: Lasts 2-5 years with proper care.

Type of Protection: Forms a durable, hydrophobic (water-repellent) layer that protects against UV damage, oxidation, chemicals, and minor scratches.

Shine & Gloss: Delivers a deep, long-lasting shine that maintains the car’s appearance for years.

Application: Requires professional application and proper curing time for best results.

Bottom Line: Waxing offers short-term shine and protection, while ceramic coating provides long-lasting protection and a superior gloss. If you're looking for auto detailing in Grand Rapids that offers both options, Josh's Auto Detailing has you covered!
