HOW TO DETAIL A CAR COMPLETELY – Expert Guide by Brilliatech

Detailing a car is more than just washing; it’s about restoring, protecting, and enhancing every surface — from paint and glass to tires and interiors.
With 18 years of experience, Brilliatech provides professional car cleaning kits, polish pads, and detailing tools trusted by workshops and brands worldwide.

This guide will teach you step-by-step how to detail a car completely, using professional-grade products that are safe, effective, and long-lasting.

Step 1 – Pre-Wash: Remove Loose Dirt

Before detailing, remove dust and dirt to avoid scratches:

• Use Brilliatech Foam Cannon or Car Shampoo to coat the vehicle.

• Rinse with a pressure washer or hose to remove loose debris.

Pro Tip: Start from the top and work your way down to prevent dirt from re-contaminating cleaned areas.

Step 2 – Wash the Exterior Properly

 Two-Bucket Method

• Bucket 1: Car wash soap

• Bucket 2: Clean water for rinsing

• Use Brilliatech microfiber wash mitts to gently scrub the surface.

Wheel & Tire Cleaning

• Apply Brilliatech Wheel Cleaner

• Use a soft brush to remove brake dust

• Rinse thoroughly

Step 3 – Drying and Surface Prep

• Dry the car using Brilliatech microfiber drying towels or air blower

• Remove remaining water spots

• Clay bar the surface with Brilliatech Clay Bar Kit to remove bonded contaminants

Step 4 – Paint Correction and Polishing

Using Polishing Compounds

• Apply Brilliatech Polishing Compound on a foam or wool pad

• Correct scratches, swirl marks, and oxidation

• Buff with a dual-action polisher for even results

Finishing Polish

• Use fine finishing polish for a glossy, smooth surface

• Prepare for waxing or ceramic coating

Step 5 – Protection Layer

• Apply Brilliatech Car Wax or Sealant for UV and environmental protection

• Optional: Ceramic coating for long-term durability

Step 6 – Interior Detailing

Dashboard & Plastic Surfaces
