A proper hand wash — wheels, tires, and a protective sealant — done right in your driveway. No tunnel washes, no swirl marks, no waiting in line.
The automatic car wash down the street is fast and cheap, and it's also one of the most common causes of swirl marks and fine scratches in your paint. Those spinning brushes drag grit across your clear coat every time.
A real exterior detail is done by hand. We wash from the top down with the two-bucket method, clean the wheels and tires separately so brake dust never touches your paint towels, and finish with a spray sealant that protects the surface and keeps it cleaner longer.
And like everything CLYINZ does, it happens at your place — Squirrel Hill, Shadyside, Fox Chapel, Mt Lebanon, and the surrounding Pittsburgh neighborhoods. You don't drive anywhere. We come to you.
Washed by hand from the top down using the two-bucket method — one for soap, one to rinse the mitt — so grit never gets dragged back across your paint.
Wheels and tires are cleaned first, with separate tools and towels. Brake dust and road grime are the dirtiest part of the car and never touch your paint.
A protective sealant is applied after washing — it adds depth and shine, beads water, and keeps the car cleaner for weeks longer than a wash alone.
The front bumper, grille, and mirrors collect baked-on bugs and road film. These get treated and removed, not just wiped over.
The areas you only see when the door is open — jambs and sills — get wiped down. A detail people notice the moment they get in.
All exterior glass and mirrors cleaned streak-free, so the whole car looks finished — not just the paint.
Prices may vary based on vehicle condition. Heavily soiled vehicles or off-road mud may require additional time, discussed upfront before any work begins.
Add a full interior detail and save versus booking each separately. Inside and out, one visit, one driveway. Most clients who care about the outside care about the inside too.
Pick a date and time through the online scheduler. No phone tag, no waiting for a callback.

Book an Exterior DetailThis Honda Accord came in dusty and dull — the kind of film that builds up from daily street parking and never quite comes off at a quick automatic wash. You can see it on the hood and roof in the before shot: flat, hazy, no reflection.
A full exterior detail brought it back: two-bucket hand wash top to bottom, wheels and tires cleaned separately, bugs and road grime cleared off the front end, then a spray sealant to lock in the shine. The after shot speaks for itself — deep, clean reflection and a finish that actually protects the paint. Done right in the driveway, no shop, no tunnel.
Automatic tunnel washes use spinning brushes and reclaimed water that drag dirt and grit across your paint, which is the leading cause of swirl marks and fine scratches in the clear coat. A hand wash using the two-bucket method keeps grit away from the surface, so you get a clean car without slowly destroying the finish over time.
A spray sealant is a protective layer applied after the wash. It adds depth and gloss, makes water bead and roll off, and helps the car stay cleaner between washes. Depending on weather and how often the car is driven, the protection typically lasts several weeks. It's not a permanent ceramic coating, but it's a real step up from a wash alone.
Just access to the vehicle and an outdoor water spigot nearby. We bring everything else — water hookup, soap, towels, tools, and sealant. You don't need to be home as long as we can reach the car and the spigot.
Yes — most clients book both together. The Interior + Exterior package costs less than booking each separately and gets the whole car done in one visit. Pricing starts at $240 for a sedan. Just pick the combined option when you book.
That's fine — but heavily soiled vehicles, off-road mud, or thick build-up can take extra time. If your car needs more than a standard wash, we'll let you know upfront before any work starts, so there are no surprises on price.
