Car Detailing for Ferrari 296

Detailing your Ferrari 296

The 296 is a plug-in Ferrari, which means a charge port on the rear fender that collects grit and a steering wheel full of touch controls that collect fingerprints. We clean the port by hand with no water pressure, wipe the controls with a lint-free towel and dust the engine through the rear vents. The paint gets a light correction and a coating, GTS hardtops get their seals cleaned and the splitter is checked for scrapes.

What we watch for on a 296

• The charge port on the rear fender collects grit and water; we clean the flap and surround with a brush and a damp cloth and keep water pressure away
• The touch-sensitive steering wheel controls and the digital displays show fingerprints; a screen-safe cleaner and a lint-free towel only
• The GTS retractable hardtop has seals and drains that collect grit; we clean the seals and clear the channels
• The rear engine cover vents collect leaves and dust; we vacuum and wipe the engine area by hand and never pressure wash it
• The front splitter and the flat underbody edges sit low and scrape on ramps; we inspect them before polishing and discuss protection film

Exotics: slow, careful, and in the garage

Exotics deserve a methodical approach: low panels, carbon, Alcantara and thin or specialty paint all mean no shortcuts. We work at your garage or storage location, at your pace.
