Car Detailing for Acura TLX

Detailing your Acura TLX

The TLX is the Acura that Honda loyalists in Markham move up to, and the Type S is the one enthusiasts track on weekends. We dissolve the Brembo dust out of the wheel barrels, decontaminate the pearl paint and polish it lightly before a sealant. Inside, the Ultrasuede inserts get a suede-safe cleaner, the red leather gets foamed and the touchpad gets a soft cloth so it stays scratch-free.

What we watch for on a TLX

• Ultrasuede inserts on A-Spec and Type S seats darken with hand oils and need a microfibre-specific cleaner, not leather products
• Type S cars have Brembo brakes that bake dust into the 20-inch wheel barrels; an iron remover and a long brush are needed every wash
• The True Touchpad and the gloss-black surround scratch from rings and nails; a plush microfibre and a non-abrasive cleaner keep them clear
• Apex Blue Pearl and Performance Red Pearl show swirls and iron fallout; a decontamination wash and a fine polish restore the depth
• Red leather interiors show dust in the grain and dye transfer from jeans; a foaming cleaner and soft brush restore the colour

Luxury cars: soft paint, delicate trim

Premium interiors use more leather, open-pore wood and gloss trim, and premium paint is often softer. We use gentler chemistry, soft microfibre and slower machine passes so nothing is marred.
