DETAIL WORK DONE RIGHT
Most detailers treat every car the same. We don’t. Shield By Design has spent over two decades working on McLarens, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and Rolls-Royces — vehicles where the margin for error is zero and the standard for perfection is absolute.
Our detail work is also the foundation of everything else we do. Every PPF install and ceramic coating at Shield By Design begins with a thorough decontamination — because you can’t protect a surface that isn’t clean. That same obsessive attention to prep and finish goes into every detail we perform, whether your car is headed for paint correction, a car show, or just needs to look its best.
HAND WASH ONLY - NO BRUSH MACHINES
Every vehicle is washed by hand using pH-neutral soap and microfiber mitts. No automated brushes, no swirl marks.
PAINT-SAFE TECHNIQUES THROUGHOUT
Iron decontamination, clay bar, and correct drying methods — every step chosen to protect your paint, not just clean it.
EXOTIC VEHICLE EXPERIENCE
We know the panels, gaps, and finishes of the world's most exclusive cars. Nothing gets missed, nothing gets damaged.

DETAIL ADD ONS
PAINT CORRECTION
Machine polish to remove swirl marks, light scratches, and oxidation. Essential before any ceramic coating or as a standalone treatment to restore depth and clarity to dull paint.
ODOR ELIMINATION
Ozone or enzyme treatment for smoke, pet, food, or moisture odors that surface cleaning alone can't reach. Neutralizes the source — not just the smell out of the your car.
ENGINE BAY DETAIL
A careful, controlled clean of the engine bay — degreasing, detailing, and dressing all visible components to look factory-fresh without exposing sensitive electronics to damage.
WHEEL & CALIPER DETAIL
Deep clean of wheels, spokes, and brake calipers — removing baked-on brake dust, iron contamination, and road tar to restore the finish of your rims and show off your calipers.
HEADLIGHT RESTORATION
Yellowed, hazy headlight lenses sanded, polished, and sealed clear — restoring light output, safety, and the clean look of new lenses without the cost of replacement.
TAR & ADHESIVE REMOVAL
Safe removal of road tar, adhesive residue, bug splatter, and tree sap that regular washing can't shift — without scratching or stripping the clear coat beneath.
FABRIC PROTECTION
Fluoropolymer fabric guard applied to cloth seats, carpets, and floor mats in your car — repelling liquid spills and preventing staining before it starts.
CONVERTABLE TOP CLEAN
Soft-top or hardtop convertible roof deep cleaned, conditioned, and protected — removing embedded dirt, mildew staining, and UV damage.
KEEP IT CLEAN FOR LONGER
Pair your detail with ceramic coating or PPF and your car stays cleaner between services — dramatically reducing maintenance time and protecting the work we just did.

--- WHAT TO EXPECT
THE DETAIL PROCESS
01
DROP OFF & ASSESSMENT
We do a walk-around inspection with you at drop-off — noting any pre-existing damage, identifying your priorities, and confirming exactly what's included in your service. No surprises.
02
DECONTAMINATION WASH
Every detail starts with a proper two-bucket hand wash, iron fallout spray, and rinse. We remove everything sitting on the surface before any polishes, conditioners, or protectants are applied.
03
DETAIL & POLISH
Interior surfaces, leather, trim, glass, and wheels are worked through methodically. If paint correction is included, machine polishing happens here — panel by panel under proper lighting.
04
FINAL INSPECTION & PICKUP
We do a full inspection under high-intensity lighting before calling you for pickup. If anything isn't right, we fix it before you see it. You leave with a vehicle that meets our standard — not just yours.
