Fine specks that feel rough like sandpaper after you wash the car are usually overspray: paint from a nearby building job, a roadside line painter, or a neighbour's fence.
Fine specks that feel rough like sandpaper after you wash the car are usually overspray: paint from a nearby building job, a roadside line painter, or a neighbour's fence. In Markham, we remove it with proper decontamination instead of grinding at the paint with something harsh. Take a photo before you wash it, so we can see what the specks look like.
We begin with a thorough wash, then test a small area to find out what the overspray is. Latex, enamel and road paint behave differently. A clay bar with lubricant takes off the lighter material, and a stronger solvent-based decontamination handles the rest, always with attention to what the clear coat can tolerate. Fine, fast-drying paints need slightly different treatment from thicker ones.
Glass, trim and plastic are included. Overspray lands on windshields, mirrors, bumpers and wheels as well as paint. Residents around Greensborough who live near condo or road construction often have a whole row of cars affected. We can clean the full exterior and finish with polish where it helps. Rubber seals and window gaskets also catch specks, so we check there.
There are limits. Dried, baked-on overspray from months ago may have bonded to the clear coat, and heavy cases can need machine polishing or, rarely, a body shop. We tell you what we see before we start. After removal, we recommend wax or sealant so the next contaminant lifts off more easily. Patience matters, since rushing causes marring.

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 Greensborough, Raymerville and Victoria Square, and every other part of Markham.
