Exterior Detailing

Exterior Detailing in New Jersey

Authentic Diamond offers professional exterior detailing services in New Jersey for vehicle owners who take pride in a polished, protected finish. Our multi-step process is designed to restore clarity, gloss, and resilience to your vehicle's exterior surfaces, from paintwork to wheels. Whether you're prepping for a show, preserving resale value, or simply elevating your everyday drive, our exterior detailing delivers results you can see and feel.

  • Hand Wash and Decontamination

    Every exterior detail begins with a meticulous hand wash using pH-balanced soap to safely lift away surface dirt, road grime, and debris. Unlike automated car washes, our approach ensures that every inch is cleaned without swirl marks or micro-scratches.


    Clay Bar Surface Treatment

    After the wash, we apply a clay bar treatment to remove bonded contaminants like tree sap, tar, and industrial fallout. This critical step smooths out the clear coat and prepares the surface for polishing or protection.


    Wheel and Tire Cleaning

    Your wheels are subjected to brake dust, road salt, and grime daily. We use non-acidic wheel cleaners and specialized brushes to deep-clean the rims, lug nuts, and wheel wells. Tires are scrubbed, rinsed, and dressed to a deep black matte finish that complements your vehicle's overall shine.

  • Paint Polishing and Correction

    Even well-maintained vehicles accumulate fine scratches and oxidation over time. Our paint polishing process uses dual-action polishers and machine-applied compounds to restore depth, clarity, and gloss.


    Swirl Mark and Scratch Reduction

    We target swirls and light scratches using carefully selected pad and polish combinations. This enhances the reflective quality of your paint without compromising clear coat integrity.


    Single or Multi-Stage Polishing Options

    Based on your vehicle's condition, we recommend either a single-stage polish for light correction or a multi-stage process for deeper imperfections. Each level of service is customized for maximum improvement.

  • Trim, Chrome, and Plastic Restoration

    Exterior detailing isn't limited to paint. We clean and revive faded trim, restore shine to chrome accents, and condition rubber seals and plastic elements.


    UV Protection for Exterior Surfaces

    Faded plastic trim and rubber seals are rejuvenated and shielded with UV-protective treatments to prevent future discoloration or cracking.


    Detail Work on Badges and Emblems

    We use soft brushes and detail swabs to clean around emblems, grille inserts, and trim pieces where dirt tends to accumulate.

  • Protective Waxing and Sealants

    After polishing, we lock in shine with a protective layer tailored to your vehicle's needs. Depending on your preference and usage, we offer carnauba wax, synthetic sealants, or ceramic coating upgrades.


    Water-Beading and Gloss Enhancement

    A high-quality wax or sealant not only deepens the gloss but also creates a hydrophobic surface that repels water, dirt, and pollutants. This makes future washes easier and keeps your vehicle looking freshly detailed for longer.


    Seasonal Protection Packages

    For New Jersey drivers dealing with harsh winters and salty roads, we offer seasonal protection plans to safeguard your paint and trim year-round.

Glass and Exterior Light Treatment

Crystal-clear visibility is a must for both aesthetics and safety. We clean and polish all exterior glass, including windshields, mirrors, and windows.


Headlight and Taillight Polishing

Foggy or yellowed headlights diminish both appearance and functionality. We restore their clarity using a multi-step polishing process, improving both nighttime visibility and curb appeal.


Streak-Free Glass Finish

All glass is treated with streak-free cleaning agents and, upon request, a rain-repellent treatment to improve visibility during inclement weather.

Final Inspection and Detailing Touches

Our work concludes with a thorough inspection to ensure every section meets our standard of perfection. We touch up trim, buff the final wax coat, and check for missed spots.


Tire Dressing and Final Wipe Down

We finish by dressing the tires and giving the entire vehicle a final wipe down with microfiber towels, ensuring a flawless finish before hand-off.

AAuthentic Diamond is proud to serve New Jersey drivers who want more than just a car wash. Our exterior detailing service provides a comprehensive, high-caliber finish that elevates your vehicle’s appearance while protecting its surfaces from the elements.
