Imagine your car, not just clean, but flawless and protected from the elements. Leaving you with a better than showroom-quality finish. That's the result of our comprehensive "three-year ceramic coating package with multi-surface protection" Ceramic Coating on this stunning Audi S3. Over three dedicated days, our team transformed this vehicle going beyond a simple wash to deliver a truly sensational finish that is better than the day it left the factory.
Here at EKJ Valeting & Detailing in Bromborough on The Wirral we do just that! Here’s a look at the meticulous, three-day process that makes all the difference.
Day 1: The Foundation - Deep Cleaning and Decontamination
The first day is all about preparation. We start by removing the wheels to access and deep clean the wheels, arches, and brake calipers. This process removes all tar spots, fallout, and baked-on dirt, preparing these surfaces for protection.

Once clean, a two-year ceramic coating is applied to the brake calipers and wheels, while the arches receive a plastic treatment. The exhaust tips are also polished to perfection.

Next, we move to the engine bay. It’s given a thorough cleaning and degreasing, followed by the application of a hydrophobic dressing for long-lasting protection.

Finally, we tackle the exterior paint with a "three-stage wash". This includes a pre-wash and snow foam to break down surface dirt, followed by a rinse. We then perform a chemical decontamination to remove any remaining tar and fallout, and a clay bar is used for a final mechanical decontamination of the paintwork.

To wrap up day one, the glass is machine polished and a two-year dedicated glass ceramic coating is applied to it for enhanced clarity and protection.
Day 2: The Art of Perfection - Paint Correction and Ceramic Coating
Day two is dedicated to achieving a flawless finish. We begin by machine polishing the exterior paint to remove light scratches and swirls, which also enhances the vehicle's gloss levels. We use a variety of machine sizes—from 5-inch to 3-inch and even 1-inch—to ensure every corner, gap, and groove is perfected.
After polishing, the surface is meticulously wiped down to remove any oils or residues, ensuring the paint is "surgically clean". This crucial step allows our accredited three-year ceramic coating to form a physical bond with the vehicle's paintwork. The coating is then applied to the exterior, providing a durable barrier against the elements and bird muck - Our Services
Day 3: The Final Touch - Interior Sanitisation and Protection
On the final day, we turn our attention to the interior, where we perform a deep clean and sanitisation. We use a steam cleaner, drill brushes, and a wet vac extractor to clean and sanitize every part of the cab, including the leather seats, upholstery mats, and carpets. Our goal is to make the interior fresh and better than the day it came from the factory.
To complete the process, we protect the newly cleaned surfaces. Gtechniq Leather Guard is applied to the leather seats and steering wheel, while Gtechniq Smart Fabric is used to protect the upholstery. This ensures the entire interior is protected and preserved.



In total, this intensive process takes approximately 36 hours of dedicated work over three days, resulting in a vehicle that is not only protected but looks absolutely sensational - Enquire Now
