Pre-Sale Detailing

Private buyers and appraisers decide in the first ninety seconds, and they decide with their eyes and their nose. Pre-sale work is not about perfection. It is about removing every reason someone has to negotiate you down.

We prioritize what shows up in a listing photo and what a buyer touches on a test drive: the driver's seat and door card, the steering wheel, the console, the carpets, the glass. Then the paint gets enough correction to photograph honestly. An enhancement polish kills the haze so the color reads true in daylight instead of flat and gray.

Wheels, tires and wheel wells get done properly, because a clean car sitting on dirty wheels reads as a car that was cleaned to be sold. Engine bays get cleaned and dressed conservatively. A bay that looks freshly steam-blasted makes an experienced buyer suspicious rather than impressed.

Tell us your listing date when you book. We schedule pre-sale work close to the photo shoot so the car is at its best when the pictures are taken, not two weeks earlier.
