Engine Compartment Wipe Down

From $65. An add on service, booked alongside a detailing package or a regular wash. Final price varies with the size and condition of the vehicle.

The one area nobody cleans until they are selling

Open the hood on most cars and you find a decade of road dust sitting on every horizontal surface. It does no harm on its own, but it makes a tidy engine bay look neglected, it hides leaks and weeps that you would otherwise spot early, and it is the first thing a private buyer or a dealer looks at when they are deciding what your car is worth. A wipe down brings the covers, the surrounds and the visible surfaces back.

How it is booked

Like headlight restoration, this is an add on rather than a standalone visit, so it goes on the same booking as a wash or a detailing package. That is also the rule when the service address is more than ten miles out. Most people add it when they are about to list a car, hand one down to a family member, or hand a fleet vehicle to a new driver.

Mr. Sparkling, Two-vehicle minimum on regular washes. Call (832) 359-8303.
