A one-day service involving meticulous cleaning, polishing and protection of paintwork, wheels and exterior glass.
Car preparation:
- General visual inspection and assessment of paint condition
- Pre-wash using active foam and non-caustic range of degreasers
- Wheels removed and cleaned and exposed suspension parts steam cleaned (maintenance spray and/or hydrophobic sealant applied)
- Multi-stage exterior wash using citrus-based cleaner and PH-neutral shampoo and a two bucket system
- The vehicle is dried using compressed air
Decontamination:
- Once the vehicle is clean and dry, the decontamination process starts
- The exterior is decontaminated using a clay bar and range of mild, solvent-based degreasers so it becomes free of tar, honeydew, brake dust and industrial fallout
- The vehicle is rinsed using warm, softened water
Drying and protecting:
- The vehicle is dried using warm air
- To remove light swirl marks and micro marring, the paintwork is treated with mild abrasive pre-wax lotion
- The highest quality wax or paint sealant will be applied to paint
- Wheels are protected with water-repelling wheel sealant
- Windows are polished and exterior trim treated
- Final inspection and customer collection
Paint Enhancement Detailing
After full one day of exterior decontamination and thorough paint inspection, your paint work will receive multi-stage machine polishing to restore it to its high gloss, scratch-free original quality. The depth and clarity of your paint colour will be enhanced and any small scratches and swirls will be removed.
The high gloss finish is protected by your choice of basic polymer sealant (lasting up to 12 months), ceramic coating or Paint Protection Film.
Ideal for:
- Cars which are a few years old or cars with visible light scratches and swirls.
- Cars over 1-year old, before ceramic coating application or PPF installation
- Cars after recent bodywork or restoration project (written or visual inspection report available)
- Classic or vintage cars that haven’t had any detailing for a few years
New Car Protection
Ceramic coating lasts a lot longer than any wax (between three and five years, depending on the option chosen). It is more scratch and mar-resistant and harder wearing than original car paint which means the finish will stay like the day it was coated. It has superior UV protection, so the paint will not oxidise after being exposed to large amounts of UV rays from the sun.
Maintenance is effortless and you can achieve a deep gloss every time you wash your car, which also stays cleaner for longer!
The process includes:
- Exterior detailing and surface decontamination (see Exterior detailing)
- Two stage paint enhancement to remove post-production minor swirls / micro marring
- All surfaces will be degreased to remove any remaining oils after polishing and prepared for ceramic coating application
- Nasiol NL272 OR ZR53 Ceramic application and after curing coating inspection
New car protection can be extended to interior and glass protection including:
- Wheels and calipers coating
- Interior fabric sealant
- Leather sealant (up to two years durability)
- Windscreen and glass water repellent (up to two years durability)
Paint Correction
Paint correction can be an excellent alternative to re-spraying and can remove up to 100% of paint defects, leaving a piano-like finish without orange peel (the name given to a slightly rippled effect on paintwork, similar to that found on an orange).
With access to the best products and techniques, we’re able to take paint in any condition to a whole new level, without compromising the paint’s thickness. The paint correction service is finished with ceramic coating ‘Nasiol NL272,’ giving a super-sleek finish and great hydrophobic properties.
Ideal for:
- Classic, vintage or exotic cars
- Pre-sale high value car preparation
- Any car that hasn’t been treated before and whose paintwork is in poor condition
- Pre- show and concourse preparation

- If necessary, top up to existing coating and protection
- During the service, seasonal checks are made (in summer, anti-fog, glasShield rain repellent and screen wash concentrate may be added and in winter, anti-freeze screen wash and windscreen coating helping to defrost windscreen may be added)

Leather Restoration
We can repair cracks, scuffs, holes, burns and sun-faded leather on steering wheels and leather seats. New dye is applied, bringing leather colour and finish back to new. The leather will then be covered in permanent gloss, matte, semi-matte or satin UV protection sealant. We use high quality products and pigments used by Rolls Royce, McLaren, Honda, Jaguar and the Royal Air Force.
The benefits of leather restoration include a new, fresh look and a softer touch to your leather upholstery. It will also increase your car’s value, making it more presentable and attractive to buy.
How long does it last?
The leather restoration will last as long as the original ‘new leather’ finish. If you don’t look after the leather in a brand new car, it will show signs of wear and tear after a few thousand miles, however if you’re careful, it will look great after ten years. Very rarely will a car manufacturer offer warranties for colour fading, scratching or cracking because there are simply too many factors influencing the longevity of leather.
At Könings Detailing, we will warranty our work for a minimum one year against any fading, cracking or peeling.
The typical process includes:
- Leather deep clean
- Removing old damaged coating (colour)
- Degreasing exposed leather fibres
- Nourishing exposed leather to soften exposed fibres
- Degreasing leather
- Repairing scuffs, scratches or holes
- Reapplying leather dye
- Applying leather finish (satin, gloss or matte)
- Applying UV sealant
- Applying leather cream after seven days
- Regular maintenance (gentle cleaning with any leather cleaner or warm water and soap)
