Run your fingertips over a freshly washed car in a thin plastic bag.
Run your fingertips over a freshly washed car in a thin plastic bag. If the paint feels gritty, it is carrying bonded contamination that soap cannot touch. Clay bar treatment removes that layer: rail dust, industrial fallout, tree sap specks and road tar. Cars in Markham pick this up from highways, construction sites and parking lots all year.
We work in sequence. After a wash, an iron remover is sprayed on and turns purple as it dissolves metal particles from brakes and rails. Then a clay bar or clay mitt glides over the lubricated paint and lifts whatever is still stuck. We rinse, wipe dry and check by touch until the surface feels like glass.
Clay does not polish or hide defects. It is a cleaning step that should come before any polish, wax, sealant or ceramic coating, because protection bonds better to bare, clean paint and lasts longer on a smooth surface. Owners near Milliken Mills West who park beside roads or building sites often find overspray, fallout and tiny specks they never knew were there until the paint felt smooth afterward.
A clay treatment usually takes one to two hours on top of a wash. Most daily drivers benefit from it once or twice a year, and new cars often need it before coating because transport and rail shipping leave residue behind. Call or text us in Markham and we will check your paint and tell you whether it is needed.

Markham is mostly detached and semi-detached homes with driveways and garages in Unionville, Cornell and Berczy, with townhouse complexes and condo towers along Highway 7 and around Markham Centre, so we work in driveways, visitor lots and underground garages.
Salt and slush from the 404, 407 and Highway 7 build up on lower panels through winter, and new subdivisions and construction send dust onto paint. Spring pollen from the mature trees in older areas like Unionville settles on windshields and finishes.
Markham is spread out, and getting to a shop across the 404 or 407 can take a chunk of the day. Mobile detailing works in your driveway, condo garage or office lot and fits busy schedules.
We regularly work in Milliken Mills West, Markville and Sherwood-Amberglen, and every other part of Markham.
