New Car Detail & Ceramic Coating
Better Than Factory — Preserve Your Investment From Day One
Best for: Brand new vehicles delivered within 7 days or with less than 500 miles
Don't let the dealership's protection packages let you down. New cars are rarely delivered perfect — between transit, storage, and poor dealership wash techniques, most new vehicles arrive with light swirl marks and fallout. At The Detailing Lounge, we reset your vehicle to a higher standard than the day it left the factory.
- Full surface reset — removes wash marring and paintwork haze incurred at the dealership
- Gloss-enhancing machine polish — maximises paint clarity before sealing
- Premium ceramic coating on interior and exterior surfaces
- Locks in that flawless new-car feel from day one
- Optional PPF on high-impact areas (front end) for stone chip defence combined with ceramic coating on the rest of the car
Results
✓Paint restored to a higher standard than factory delivery
✓Permanent hydrophobic protection from day one
✓Maximum resale value preservation
Paint Protection Film (PPF)
The Ultimate Invisible Armour — Stop Stone Chips Before They Happen
While ceramic coatings provide a chemical shield, PPF is a physical, high-impact urethane barrier. Often called a clear bra, this virtually invisible film is the only way to defend your paint against the physical rigours of West Yorkshire roads.
- Stone chip defence — a thick, durable layer that absorbs the impact of road debris, gravel, and salt
- Self-healing technology — light scratches and swirls disappear with the application of heat
- Optically clear — modern film technology ensures a high-gloss finish that is virtually impossible to see
- Resale value — keeps the factory paint in mint condition to maximise future trade-in value

Ceramic Coating Aftercare Guide
Following the correct aftercare routine ensures your ceramic coating performs at its peak for its full rated lifespan. Here is what we recommend.
First 7 Days — Curing Period
Avoid washing the vehicle or exposing it to rain for the first 7 days. The coating needs time to fully cure and bond to the paintwork.
Washing — Use the Two-Bucket Method
Always use pH-neutral shampoo and the two-bucket method. Never use a drive-through or automated car wash — these cause swirl marks that degrade the coating.
Drying — Air or Plush Microfibre
Use a high-velocity air blower or a clean, plush microfibre drying towel. Avoid chamois leathers which can scratch the surface.
Annual Maintenance — Ceramic Toppers
Apply a ceramic maintenance spray (topper) every 6–12 months to refresh the hydrophobic properties and extend the coating's lifespan.
Maintenance Valet — Keep It Perfect
Book our Maintenance Valet service to keep your coated vehicle in Detailer-Clean condition year-round without risking swirl marks from inferior washes.
Bird Droppings & Tree Sap — Act Fast
Remove bird droppings and tree sap as soon as possible. Although the coating provides chemical resistance, prolonged exposure can still cause etching.
