10/10 – the best around

 

I could not be happier with the service from Summit Details. Hayden has looked after friends and family for some time now and never disappoints. He made my old car look brand new and the service and protection for my new car has been phenomenal. The ceramic protection is worth every penny. With his new employee Luke the service continues to be 10/10. Thank you for everything and for always going that extra mile.

 

Chantel Lineham

Professional throughout with amazing results!

 

I let Hayden loose on my 3 Series touring and he transformed it. Gave it a deep level of shine that is unmatched and ultimately protected the car with the ceramic coating, which has lasted incredibly well especially seeing as the car has covered 27,000 miles since it was detailed and protected by Summit Details. I was kept well informed and saw photos through the process on social media which was a nice touch! I can highly recommend Summit Details for your vehicle detailing needs!

 

Sam Wicks

Exceptional Work Every Time

 

Hayden has cleaned my car a few times now, each time has been to an exceptional standard. His communication is brilliant, sending me pictures of any dings or marks to the car as he was working on it, as well as quick at responding when booking appointments or even just answering my questions about how to maintain the clean. I’d highly recommend Summit for any detailing work you need.

 

Tom Smith

Great experience, amazing work

 

I was really impressed by the convenience and quality of Summit Details. Hayden arrived promptly and transformed my car right on my driveway. His attention to detail was evident in every aspect, from the immaculate interior cleaning to the flawless exterior which was finished off down the unit being ceramic coated. It’s a game changer to have such a professional service come to you. I’ll definitely be scheduling another appointment in the future!

Why does a new car need detailing?

Hello, It’s Hayden from Summit Details in West Sussex. I’ve had the privilege of working on some incredible vehicles and partnering with some of the largest dealership groups here in West Sussex. One of the most common questions I get is, “Why does a new car need detailing?” It seems counterintuitive for many because they assume a new car should be in perfect condition. However, that’s not always the case. Let me explain in detail.

 

  1. Transport and Storage: Before you see the shiny new car in the showroom, it’s gone through a journey. It’s been transported, sometimes across countries or continents, and has been stored in various locations. During this time, the car is exposed to dust, dirt, and potential contaminants.

  2. Protective Coatings: New cars often have protective coatings or wraps to shield them during transport. When these are removed, they can sometimes leave residue or adhesive behind that needs professional detailing to be safely and thoroughly removed.

  3. Minor Imperfections: Believe it or not, new cars can come with minor imperfections. It could be a tiny scratch from handling, a smudge, a swirl from initial cleaning, or a blemish in the paint. As professionals, we can spot and correct these issues to ensure the car is genuinely in showroom condition.

  4. Protection for the Long Run: A new car is an investment, and detailing is about protecting that investment. We apply ceramic coatings and paint protection films that shield the paintwork from environmental factors, UV radiation, bird droppings, and more. This protection not only maintains the car’s aesthetic but can also improve its resale value down the line.

  5. Interior Detailing: It’s not just about the exterior. New cars can have residues from the manufacturing process in the interior too. Detailing ensures that the inside of your car is as pristine and comfortable as the exterior.

  6. Personal Touch: Every car owner has personal preferences. Some might want a specific kind of finish, while others may ask for added protection in certain areas prone to stone chips or other damage. Detailing allows for that personalisation.

  7. Enhanced Presentation: Dealerships aim to present cars in the best possible way to potential buyers. A professionally detailed car looks better, feels better, and can even smell better. This can make all the difference in making a successful sale.

At Summit Details, our commitment to perfection and quality has made us a trusted choice for dealerships in West Sussex. They know that when we detail a new car, it isn’t just about cleaning; it’s about elevating the vehicle to its absolute best state, ensuring customers receive a car that’s truly new in every sense of the word.

Best, Hayden, Summit Details

New Car Detailing FAQs

We have answered some of the most frequently asked questions regarding New Car Detailing & Protection in Chichester. If you have any further questions regarding our New Car Detailing services, please call us on 07860 580321 or email enquiries@summitdetails.co.uk 

What is New Car Detailing?

New Car Detailing is a specialised service designed to enhance and protect a brand-new vehicle’s paint, interior, and exterior surfaces. It involves deep cleaning, paint correction (if necessary), and applying protective coatings to keep your car in pristine condition.

Why do I need detailing for a brand-new car?

Even brand-new cars can have minor paint imperfections, swirl marks, and contaminants from the factory or dealership. Professional new car detailing ensures the paintwork is corrected, protected, and enhanced for long-term durability.

Is detailing a brand-new car different from regular detailing?

Yes, detailing a brand-new car focuses more on paint protection and correction of minor defects, rather than deep cleaning and restoration required for older vehicles.

When should I get my new car detailed?

Ideally, you should get new car protection as soon as possible after taking delivery. This prevents contamination, swirl marks, and environmental damage from affecting the paint.

Can I get my new car detailed at the dealership?

Dealerships may offer basic protection packages, but they often use lower-quality products which risks damaging your car’s paint before you have the keys in your hand. Professional new car detailing services provide better protection with premium-grade coatings. Please ensure if you’re due to collect a car, let the dealership know you do not want any cleaning / valeting services.

What is the best way to protect my new car’s paint?

The best options include ceramic coatings, paint protection film (PPF), and high-quality sealants, which provide long-term protection against scratches, UV damage, and contaminants.

How long does a ceramic coating last on a new car?

Depending on the product and maintenance, ceramic coatings can last from 5 years to lifetime (from Pyramid Car Care), providing long-lasting shine and protection.

Should I get PPF and ceramic coating together?

Yes, many car owners apply PPF on high-impact areas and a ceramic coating on the entire car for maximum protection.

How should I wash my car after new car detailing?

Use the two-bucket method, a pH-neutral shampoo, and a microfiber wash mitt to prevent scratches. Avoid automatic car washes.

Can I use a pressure washer on my ceramic-coated car?

Yes, but use a low-pressure setting and maintain a safe distance to avoid damaging the coating or PPF.

Do I still need to wax my car after a ceramic coating?

No, ceramic coatings provide better protection than wax, so waxing is unnecessary. However, maintenance sprays can enhance the coating’s durability.

Does rain affect my new car detailing?

No, but it’s best to avoid exposing a freshly coated car to rain for 24 to 48 hours to allow proper curing.

How long does new car detailing take?

Depending on the services, detailing a brand-new car can take 4 to 48 hours, especially if applying ceramic coatings or PPF.

Can I book an appointment for new car detailing in Chichester?

Yes, Summit Details offers professional new car detailing in Chichester for 25 and 75 plate cars.
