Keep Your Car Looking Great
Has it been a while since your car had wax or sealant applied to the paint? A wash and wax service is a great way to cleanse the paint, remove surface contaminants, and provide a layer of protection against the elements that also increases the gloss on the paint/
Not only will your car look better, but you’ll also feel the smooth, slick finish of the paint once the service is complete. This is a popular option because it’s a service that we can complete in a few hours but it gives you that clean fresh feel again.
Want to take your paint’s finish to the next level? Consider our paint correction service to remove swirls and scratches, followed by a ceramic coating for long-term protection and an even deeper gloss.
The Exterior Detail Process
A wash and wax is a great way to maintain your car’s appearance and keep it in top shape year-round. Here is how we do it:
Wheel and Tire Cleaning: We start by thoroughly cleaning the wheels, tires, and fenders to remove brake dust, road grime, and built-up dirt. If heavy contamination is present, a more in-depth cleaning may be needed as a separate service.
Full Hand Wash: A gentle, thorough hand wash removes surface dirt, dust, and contaminants. We take extra care to remove bugs and bird droppings from the front end of the vehicle.
Clay Bar Treatment: After washing, we clay bar the paint to remove embedded contaminants that regular washing cannot reach. This step is what gives your paint that ultra-smooth feel.
Apply the Wax: We apply a high-quality wax or sealant to enhance shine while adding protection against UV rays, dirt, and moisture.
Dress the Tires: Using a water-based tire dressing, we give your tires a clean, deep-black finish without leaving behind a greasy residue.
Clean the Glass: All exterior glass and mirrors are cleaned for a streak-free, crystal-clear finish.
Want to completely transform your vehicle? Pair this service with our Interior Detailing for a deep clean that makes your car look and feel like new.
And the best part? We’re mobile, so we come directly to your home or office to get the job done! We service Santa Rosa and surrounding areas like Rohnert Park, Windsor, Novato, Petaluma, and more!

“We own a 22’ Class A RV that’s 30 years old. We’re doing a complete makeover- mechanical, interior and exterior. The detailers we hired originally dropped the ball on the wax job.Then we called Nook & Cranny and Tyrell came out and told us what he could do and he did everything he said that he would do. Rubbed out the paint job and then waxed it including the windows. It looks beautiful. He worked hard at it. Now, with the new decals, It looks like it did when it was first driven off the lot. It’s nice to see there are still people out there with good work ethic and virtue. Tyrell you’re the best. Bob and Bonnie: – Bonnie Karlsen
“Terrell completely changed my 2011 GMC into looking brand new! It is super clean and shiney. Terrell’s attention to deal is impeccable. Nook and Cranny perfectly describes how thorough he is. He was also professional, timely and stayed until it was almost dark to finish the job. 100% recommended!” – Lori LaForge

Wash and Wax FAQs
Do you come to me?
Yes! We are a fully mobile detailing service covering Santa Rosa and surrounding areas. We can service your vehicle at your home or workplace.
How long does the wax last?
It depends on how your car is stored. If kept in a garage, the protection can last four to six months. If parked outside daily, it may last closer to three months. Using dish soap, harsh cleaners, or improper wash methods will also lead to shortening its lifespan.
Does this service remove scratches?
A wax application does not remove scratches, but it fills in minor swirl marks, making them less visible. For permanent scratch removal, paint correction is needed. If the scratch is deep and it’s gone through the layers of paint, wet-sanding or touch up paint may need to be needed.
