New Car Protection

Designed for brand-new or near-new vehicles (within 6 months of delivery)

Your new vehicle deserves more than just admiration — it deserves long-lasting protection. At Detaileur, our New Car Protection Service is designed to protect, preserve, and enhance your car’s exterior and interior finishes before environmental damage begins.

Despite being new, vehicles from dealerships often arrive with light swirl marks, transport contaminants, and poor-quality waxes. Our expert process removes these flaws and replaces them with professional-grade ceramic or graphene coatings and protection systems that last.

Why Invest in New Car Protection?

  • Locks in the flawless finish before damage begins

  • Shields your investment from UV rays, bird droppings, water spots, and oxidation

  • Makes cleaning your car easier and less frequent

  • Enhances resale value and long-term appearance

  • Reduces reliance on harsh chemicals or waxes

  • Gives peace of mind knowing your car is protected by professionals

New Car Protection Process at Detaileur

Step 1: Pre-Inspection & Paint Assessment

Even new cars are rarely defect-free. We start with:

  • Paintwork inspection under LED lighting

  • Detection of swirl marks, marring, dealership buffer trails

  • Inspection of interior trim, leather, plastics, and fabric

  • Paint thickness gauge measurement (if needed)

  • Discuss coating options (ceramic vs graphene)

Step 2: Exterior Wash & Decontamination

  • A meticulous cleansing process to remove unseen contaminants:

  • Snow foam pre-wash to soften dirt and reduce friction

  • Two-bucket hand wash with soft microfibre mitts

  • Iron & fallout remover to extract embedded rail/transport dust

  • Clay bar treatment to ensure a smooth surface (optional based on contamination level)

  • Thorough rinse and contactless drying using air blowers and soft towels

Step 3: Mild Paint Enhancement Polish (if needed)

  • While full correction isn't usually required, most new cars benefit from:

  • A single-stage polish to enhance gloss and remove minor dealer-installed swirl marks

  • Optional enhancement polish is included if paint requires refining before coating

  • This ensures maximum bonding and longevity of the coating

Step 4: Panel Prep for Coating

  • Before application, the paint is prepped using:

  • Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) wipe-down to remove polishing oils and residue

  • Ensures a perfectly bare surface for optimal coating adhesion

Step 5: Application of Paint Protection Coating

We offer two main types of professional-grade protection:

​

🛡️ Ceramic Coating

  • 9H hardness

  • Lasts 2–5 years depending on product tier

  • Provides UV resistance, hydrophobicity, chemical resistance, and easy cleaning

  • Enhances gloss, depth, and colour clarity.


​⚛️ Graphene Coating (Optional Upgrade)

  • Stronger anti-static and water-repelling properties

  • Increased resistance to water spotting

  • Longer-lasting (up to 5–7 years with proper maintenance)

  • Reduces surface heat retention and enhances durability.

    All coatings are applied by trained professionals and cured under ideal conditions.

Step 6: Wheels, Glass, and Trim Protection

  • Wheels sealed with a heat-resistant ceramic coating for easy brake dust removal

  • Windscreen and windows treated with hydrophobic glass sealant for safer wet weather driving

  • Exterior plastics and trims dressed and sealed to prevent fading and UV damage

Step 7: Interior Protection Package (Optional Add-On)

  • Protect your vehicle’s cabin with:

  • Leather and vinyl protectants – Anti-UV, anti-crack, stain-resistant

  • Fabric protection – Water and stain repellent on seats and carpets

  • Dashboard and trims – Conditioned and shielded from sun damage

Step 8: Final Inspection & Delivery

  • Multi-angle lighting inspection

  • Clean-up of edges and trim

  • Presentation and aftercare guide provided

  • Maintenance plan offered (monthly, quarterly, or annual care options)
