Paradise Detailing brings professional hand washing directly to your home or workplace, using high-lubricity soaps and soft wash mitts designed to protect modern paint finishes.

What's Included in This Service

Each mobile wash begins with a full rinse to loosen surface debris, followed by hand application of pH-balanced soap using dedicated wash mitts that glide over painted panels. You receive comprehensive attention to wheels, tires, and rims where brake dust and road grime accumulate most. Light bug and tar spots are removed safely, and tire dressing restores a clean, finished appearance to sidewalls.

Paradise Detailing completes every wash with a careful towel-dry using soft microfiber towels that eliminate water spots and streaking. Power and water systems are brought onboard, so no hookup is required at your San Rafael property. Each step follows scratch-free methods that automatic car washes cannot replicate.

This service works best for routine monthly maintenance, quick refreshes between full details, and anyone wanting to preserve paint without scheduling shop visits. Bay Area pollen, tree sap, and sun exposure require consistent care to prevent long-term dulling.

Why Locals Choose This Option

Marin County drivers often ask about timing, methods, and how mobile washing compares to tunnel systems. Below are answers to the most common questions about professional hand wash services.

How long does a mobile hand wash take?
Most hand washes are completed in 30 to 45 minutes depending on vehicle size and condition. You can stay inside while the work is done.
Will hand washing remove all water spots?
Light water spots are removed during washing and drying. Heavy mineral deposits may require clay bar treatment or polishing, which is included in exterior detailing packages.
Is mobile car washing safe for ceramic-coated vehicles?
Yes. High-lubricity soaps and soft microfiber mitts are safe for ceramic coatings and help maintain hydrophobic properties without adding friction or scratches.
Do you bring your own water and power?
All equipment, water tanks, and power supplies are onboard. No hookup is needed at your San Rafael home or workplace.
How often should I schedule a hand wash?
Monthly washes work well for most drivers in San Rafael. Coastal air, pollen, and freeway debris make regular cleaning essential for protecting paint and preventing buildup.

Consistent hand washing protects your vehicle from environmental contaminants and preserves long-term clarity. Mobile service makes it simple to maintain a clean, polished look without interrupting your routine. Reach out today to schedule your next wash.
