Add Gloss and Protection with Wash and Wax

An annual or biannual service to keep your paint clean, glossy, and protected

A Simple Way to Boost Shine and Add Lasting Protection

Has it been a while since your vehicle had a wax or sealant applied? This service is perfect for freshening up your paint, smoothing out the surface, and giving it a durable layer of protection.

Once we’re done, you’ll instantly see the difference—not just in how it looks, but in how it feels. The paint will feel slick and smooth. 

This is one of our most popular services here at Clean N' Dip Detailing, and for good reason. It delivers amazing results in a relatively short timeframe. Your vehicle’s paint will pop again while getting added defense against Orange County’s sun, road dust, and coastal elements.

Looking for a major paint transformation? Check out our paint correction services to remove those swirls and light scratches for mirror-like clarity. We also offer ceramic coatings to lock in that fresh shine for years.

What Goes Into Our Wash and Wax Service

This isn’t just a quick rinse—it’s an exterior detail. It’s a great service to do once or twice a year to maintain your vehicle’s condition. Here's what the process includes:

Clean Wheels and Tires
We start with a full cleaning of the wheels, wheel barrels, tires, and fenders. If your wheels need a deeper restoration due to heavy buildup break or grime buildup, we’ll let you know—this may require a separate service for a full restoration.

Gentle Hand Wash
Next up is a complete hand wash. We remove bugs, tar, and bird droppings from the front end and thoroughly wash the body from top to bottom.

Clay Bar Treatment
After the wash, we go in with a clay bar to remove any remaining contaminants stuck on the paint. This makes the surface silky smooth and preps it for wax.

Wax or Sealant Application
Now it’s time for the gloss and protection. We apply a premium wax or sealant to bring out a deep shine while adding a barrier against the elements.

Tire Dressing
We finish the tires with a water-based dressing that gives them a natural, clean finish—no greasy residue here.

Streak-Free Glass Cleaning
All exterior glass is cleaned for a crystal-clear view and a spotless appearance.

Want that “new car” feel again? Pair this service with our Interior Detail to get your whole ride looking and feeling brand new. It’s the perfect combo when you're after that full transformation inside and out.

And since we’re fully mobile, we bring everything straight to your driveway or workplace in Orange County. Easy, convenient, and top-quality service without ever stepping foot in a shop.

We service areas like Costa Mesa, Irvine, Anaheim, Orange County, Newport Beach, and more!

Wash and Wax FAQs

  • Absolutely. We’re 100 percent mobile and can detail your vehicle at your home, office, and apartments in Orange County.

  • That depends on how your vehicle is stored. Garaged cars typically last longer for four to six months. Vehicles parked outdoors daily might see closer to three months of protection. Overall, the more the sun and weather hits the paint, the faster it deteriorates. On top of that, using the wrong kind of soaps or cleaners can strip the protection sooner.

  • We can use your home’s water supply if it’s available, but we also carry our own water in case you’re in an apartment or a location without access.

  • Wax or sealants won’t remove scratches, but it can hide light swirls for a glossier finish. If you’re looking to get rid of deeper imperfections, paint correction is the service you’ll want.
