We do not have premises for valeting cars as we are a mobile car wash/valet company based in Cork. We carry all the necessary equipment onboard so we can come to you.

Approximately 1 day. It really depends on how busy we are. We would advise you to book well in advance if you like a car valet done at the weekend.

Yes, as we are a Mobile Car Valet Service we can come to your place of work to valet your car.

Yes, we are insured (Comprehensive Motor Trade Insurance and Public Liability Insurance with limit 2600 000€) and registered

No. We carry our own water and power so all we need is space to work.

No. It's not necessary. All of our equipment has plenty on nozzles and adjustments so that we don't have to remove the seats.

They may be slightly damp, depending on the weather and condition of the seats prior to cleaning; we supply disposable seat covers as part of the service, which allows you to use the vehicle if necessary. In good weather, your seats should be completely dry within 2 - 3 hours.

Waxing your vehicle helps to prevent airborne contaminants from settling on the paint and starting a chemical reaction. Waxing also diffuses UV rays from the sun, thereby preventing the UV rays from being absorbed into the paint. Without the wax, the paintwork would end up dull and oxidized.

A polish is exactly that, a polish. It’s an abrasive substance that lightly removes the top surface which allows the vehicle to shine; a wax on the other hand has no cleaning agents in it. The Wax acts as a protective layer by sealing your paintwork and keeping the oxygen out.

Detailing clay is a specific type of pliable material made for automotive finishes that is used to remove bonded contaminants that embed into a vehicle’s painted surfaces over time. Common contaminates include tar, paint overspray, industrial fallout, brake dust, and other airborne pollution. These contaminants can lead to premature paint failure if not removed. A normal wash cannot remove what claying can. Claying is necessary step because it will ensure for a clean surface for a wax or sealant to bond to, maximizing its durability. Waxing a car that hasn’t been clayed is like putting a car cover on a dirty vehicle before washing it. A clayed surface is also necessary for polishing. How will you know when you need to use a clay bar? After you have washed and dried your vehicle, run your hand over the paintwork. If it feels rough, this is contamination. Removing these contaminants (dirt, grit, tar, bugs, brake dust etc.) will improve the look and feel of your vehicles paint finish.

Carnauba waxes are the traditional automotive paintwork protection. Carnauba wax is secreted by the leaves of a tree in the Brazilian rainforest, it's one of natures most durable waxes. Most carnauba waxes use Grade 1 yellow carnauba in their formulations, Grade 1 is the highest grade of carnauba wax available. Usually the more expensive the wax, the higher the percentage of carnauba (up to 79% if you are willing pay € 18,000). Where the synthetic waxes give a more reflective finish, the carnauba waxes will give your paintwork a warm glow and a greater depth. Because the wax is yellow and not completely transparent the finish will give a slightly muted effect on metallic flake finishes. Manufacturers are now refining the yellow carnauba to white which will help reduce the yellowing effect and increase that sparkle effect, white carnauba is used in the more expensive waxes at the moment (about € 100+). Also a carnauba wax will give a much better sheeting/beading property than a synthetic wax.

Swissvax Concorso - The famous concours wax from the world-renowned Swiss manufacturer provides a deep, wet 'show car' shine. This wax contains 50% yellow and white Carnauba, so will last longer and shine deeper than almost any other product available.

We can come and shampoo and deodorise the interior of your car by use the ozone generator. This usally helps to get rid of the smell.

Oxidation affects the outermost layers of paint which are constantly exposed to air and water. If the car's outer finish is not protected by a wax coating the oxygen molecules in the air will eventually start interacting with the paint. As the oxygen burns up the free radicals (atoms or molecules ) contained in the paint, the finish becomes duller and duller.

The secret of preventing oxidation caused by oxygen is to provide a layer of protection between the exposed material and the air. Destructive oxidation cannot occur if the oxygen cannot penetrate the surface. Low quality soaps, shampoos, washing up liquids and automatic car washes can be damaging to vehicles, we can Wax your vehicle and dry the vehicle many times and the Wax will still be on, protecting the paintwork.

If a car is not taken care of properly, the paint job will begin to look dull and unimpressive. It can also lead to oxidation, which is a step beyond a dull paint job. When this occurs, the paint will not only appear dull, but it will become cloudy and look almost as though it was colored with sidewalk chalk. Thankfully, there is a way to get rid of oxidation if it has not completely taken over your vehicle.

This will involve stripping away the offending layer of oxidation to reveal the preserved paint below, which is done using abrasive compounds. However, you don't want to just jump right in and start removing paint, as you can wind up taking off more than you intend. First and foremost, you're going to need to wash the vehicle to remove dirt and debris that could scratch the paint while you're trying to polish it.

Next, you will have to determine the type of paint that was used on your vehicle. There are two types of automotive paint - single stage and basecoat-clearcoat. Single stage paint is applied in one layer. The other type involves a basecoat being applied to the body of the car, followed by a clearcoat. The basecoat is typically dull and the clearcoat is used to give the color a good shine while protecting it at the same time. If your vehicle has the latter paint job, you will need to be extra careful when removing oxidation to avoid stripping off the clearcoat and exposing the basecoat. If you do this, there's no way to restore the shine without having the area repainted.

After you finish polishing the vehicle, you should wax it to seal in your hard work and protect the vehicle from further damage caused by the elements. A good rule of thumb is to wax your car every few wash to prevent the paint job from fading, losing its luster and becoming oxidized.

WHAT IS OZONE ?
The gas consisting of three oxygen atoms. And really it's more ozone than oxygen (O2) with an extra oxygen atom. Additional oxygen is formed under the influence of an electrical discharge in the dissolution of the oxygen molecules. Ozone has a fresh smell of the air after a storm, and a bluish color. Arises naturally in the atmosphere, may also be produced by the device, such as ozone generators. Produced by the much higher ozone concentrations than natural, reacts with organic compounds (mold, fungi, viruses, bacteria) and completely destroys them. What happens is that the ozone decomposing releases oxygen, which neutralises organic compounds by combining with them. This reaction is called the ozonization, as a result of which the air is clean, fresh, free from viruses, bacteria, mites and other hazardous compounds. Ozonation not only disinfects the air, but also quickly removes all odors.

Each car in more or less have to do with the formation of odors caused by smoke, eg, transporting animals, carrying a variety of chemicals or contamination resulting from the ventilation ducts and upholstery. External vents and hoses are ideal for fungi and bacteria (especially in vehicles with air conditioning)It is not difficult to imagine the consequences of health entails being in the car.All of these pollutants produced in the interior of the car are a threat to the health of people breathing air that flowed through this installation.

BENEFITS AFTER OZONE TREATMENT ?
* Totally elimination of mold and mildew
* Totally disinfection and fumigation car air conditioning
* Totally elimination of odors from the previous owner of the car
* Totally disinfection of the interior of the car - elimination of viruses, bacteria and allergens
* Totally elimination of odors such as musty, smoke, odors of animals, spilled milk, spilled fuel, paints, adhesives, solvents .... etc

Exterior glass is treated with a solution that disperses rain, sleet and snow thereby improving visibility, safety and driving comfort.
Basically, the whole process comes down to dispersing water and snow as soon as it touches the surface of windshield protected by the repellent substance which is try to form a chemical bond with the windscreen it is applied onto, which obviously increases visibility, also at night by reducing glare and sometimes makes wipers almost useless.

Yes, our system can restore dull, yellowed headlight to like-new condition! Our system cleans, brightens and protects even the dullest headlights. Witness the dramatic improvement of night visibility.
