Level 3: Showroom Detail
The Showroom Detail is as good as it gets. If you have ever looked at your car's paint and noticed swirl marks (spider webbing), scratches, and dullness, then this detail is right for you. These dreaded swirl marks come from improper washing (automated car washes) and can ruin your car's finish. The showroom detail removes these defects and protects your car's paint for years to come. This detail is highly time-consuming and takes precision in order to get the right results. After this service is performed, your car will look even better than when it rolled out of the showroom. This detail takes anywhere from 25-40+ hours of work.
*If you choose to do this detail, it is recommended that you bring your car back to WCM Details each month in order to properly maintain the car's finish.

What's used to remove these swirl marks and scratches?
A DA (Dual Action) polisher is used to safely remove any defects from the cars paintwork
What if there are deeper scratches in my car's paintwork?
If scratches are through the clearcoat, that means it is impossible to completely remove safely. However, if there is a big scratch, wet sanding can be used to level the clearcoat around the area to make the scratch less visible. This is then followed by paint correction in order to remove the sanding marks.
