Myths and Facts About Exterior Detailing 


Myth 1: Any soap or detergent can be used to wash your vehicle 

Using just any household soap or detergent to wash your vehicle’s exterior does far more harm than good. Many dish soaps or general-purpose cleaners are too harsh and can strip away protective wax or coatings, dulling the paint over time. Cowabunga Auto uses detailing solutions specifically formulated for automotive surfaces, as these are pH-balanced. These are designed to clean without damaging your vehicle’s finish.

Myth 2: You can get the same results using store-bought products at home 

While some DIY cleaning products can help with light cleaning, they rarely match the effectiveness of professional solutions and techniques. Cowabunga Auto Detailing uses high-end auto detailing solutions, safe tools, and our years of expertise to ensure your vehicle is cleaned without damage. The level of care and quality achieved by our detailing professionals is unmatched by at-home alternatives.

Myth 3: Exterior detailing is the same as a public car wash 

Public car washes are perceived as easy alternatives, but they provide lackluster results. They also often leave behind swirls and scratches while failing to remove embedded contaminants. The difference between professional detailing and a public car wash is notable.
