Frequently and regularly getting your car detailed is crucial to optimizing the benefits that it has to offer. This helps maintain the appearance and protectants provided with each detail. But, how often should you get your car detailed? The frequency at which you need a detail is dependent on several factors. In this blog post, we will discuss those factors and help you determine how often is best for you.
Factors Impacting Frequency
There are multiple factors that have an impact on how often you should have your car detailed. A primary factor to consider for your exterior is the exposure it has to the sun. If your car does not sit in a garage or is in a location where there is an increase in exposure to the scorching sun, like Texas, you will need to get your car detailed more often to prevent your car from UV ray damage. The longevity of your paint protectant depends on the type that you use. For example, ceramic coating provides longer protection than wax and paint sealant (see our blog post on ceramic coating, linked below, to learn more).
Another factor to consider is the wear and tear that your car experiences. There are many aspects to consider. If your vehicle is used to work in rural or outdoor areas, then it is likely exposed to more environmental elements that could damage the exterior of your car. If you have young children or pets, then you may need additional details to maintain a clean and protected interior. Overall, the more wear and tear your car faces, the more frequent you will need to have your car detailed.
Finally, how often your detail your car is dependent on your personal preference for its appearance and condition. If you would rather have continuously clean and shiny car, then you should consider increasing how frequently you have your car detailed.
Choosing The Right Frequency of Your Car Details
In conclusion, there are a variety of factors to consider when choosing how frequent you would like to have your car professionally detailed. The choice is dependent on your individual circumstances. Most experts recommend having your car fully detailed 1-2 times per year. You should also have a more basic level detail halfway between full details to maintain your car's appearance and protectants. Most protectants only have a longevity of 2-6 months, depending on the type you use. This will ensure that you are optimizing the benefits of your car detail.
