West Yorkshire’s Trusted Car Detailing Specialists

“My car was flooded with standing water in the interior, leaving a bad smell as the carpets were soaked. I took it to Gleem Services and they advised me I needed to replace the underlay, they took care of ordering and installing it. After a deep clean and decontamination, my car was as good as new and the smell was removed. Highly recommend their services.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Below you’ll find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about car detailing services such as ceramic coatings and paint protection. If you’re looking to find out more about a service for your vehicle, please don’t hesitate to get in touch to see how we can help enhance and protect your pride and joy.

What is the difference between car detailing and valeting?

Car detailing goes several steps deeper than valeting to deliver an incredible transformation. Valeting focuses on cleaning the vehicle, however detailing also includes restorative and protective aspects to enhance and preserve the condition of the vehicle. For example, detailing also includes chemical decontamination (iron and tar removal), clay barring, machine polishing and the application of high-quality protection (e.g. ceramic coating). Other detailing services also include headlight restoration, soft top convertible roof protection, and interior deep cleaning to reset the cabin to a factory-fresh finish. Check out our blog on the differences between detailing and valeting for more information. 

What is a ceramic coating?

A ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to the exterior surfaces of the car. Once cured, it chemically bonds with the factory paint to create a long-lasting layer of protection. The main benefits of a ceramic coating include: 

  • Water and dirt repellent finish
  • Protection against UV rays
  • Reduction in the risk of micro-scratches
  • Prevention of oxidation and fading
  • Enhancement of depth and gloss

Ceramic coatings can be applied to a number of surfaces including the paint, wheels, glass, plastic trim, and metal. A coating can last between 1-10 years, and depends on the specific coating (e.g. DIY or professional-grade), the installation process, and how it is maintained. Please visit our ceramic coating service page to find out more. 

What is paint protection film (PPF)?

Paint protection film (PPF) is a transparent polyurethane film which can be applied over the paintwork to protect it against environmental contamination, stone chips, and light scratches. It offers far better protection against abrasion compared to a ceramic coating, and is the pinnacle of paint protection in the automotive industry. Please visit our PPF service page for more information.

What is machine polishing?

Paint correction, or machine polishing, is designed to address the clear coat defects such as swirl marks and scratches by removing a very thin layer of paint to reveal a fresh, damage-free layer. This results in an increase in the depth of gloss and colour, delivering a head-turning finish. There are different levels of machine polishing to suit different budgets and requirements e.g. single-stage enhancement vs multi-stage correction. Machine polishing is also an essential step performed prior to installing a ceramic coating. Find out more by visiting our paint correction service page.

Have you received any training or accreditation?

Yes, we are proud to be certified installers of the Wax is Dead® range of ceramic coatings. This means we have been trained to install these professional-grade coatings which are not available to non-accredited detailers or consumers. All our detailing team are extensively trained to ensure that we deliver high-quality and consistent results across all our services, and on every vehicle. 

What chemicals do you use in your detailing services?

Some of the types of chemicals we use include:

  • Alloy wheel & tyre cleaners: designed to safely and effectively deal with brake dust and dirt.
  • Snow foam and citrus-pre-wash: designed to soak and soften the traffic film on the vehicle so it can be rinsed away more easily with a pressure washer before the contact wash.
  • Car shampoo: formulated to lubricate the wash mitt so dirt can be lifted safely from the paint to reduce the risk of swirl marks.
  • Tar & iron removers: specifically-formulated chemicals which remove common contaminants.
  • Polishes & compounds: abrasive liquids used to machine polish and remove clear coat defects.
  • Ceramic coatings: high-quality protection that lasts for several years on the paintwork. 

Why should I choose a professional detailing service?

Having your vehicle professionally detailed offers many benefits including:

  • The removal of scratches and swirl marks to restore the depth of colour and gloss. 
  • The application of high-quality protection (e.g. ceramic coating) will ensure your vehicle is shielded from the elements and is easier to clean for many years. 
  • Professional detailers with training and certification are highly skilled and experienced, meaning your vehicle will be treated with the utmost care and level of attention.
  • The work is completed in an indoor, controlled environment to ensure the best possible finish is achieved.

Do new cars need detailing?

New cars will absolutely benefit from car detailing services such as paint enhancement and ceramic coating installation. Most brand-new vehicles have paint defects which are either inflicted at the factory or at the dealership and include sanding marks, swirl marks, and chemical etching. Having your vehicle professionally detailed will remove these imperfections and make your car actually feel brand-new. The application of a ceramic coating will also protect the finish and mean your car stays looking newer for longer.
