Appearance care
Questions owners ask before appearance care
Straight answers on what we do, what to bring, paint condition, heavy soil, and how long a visit might take.
Practical FAQs
Does Glassline perform mechanical repairs or collision body work?
No. Glassline covers appearance care only—detailing, paint correction consults, and protective finishes. Brakes, engine work, and collision body repair belong in a mechanical shop. The detailing overview explains what is in scope.
What should I remove from the vehicle before a session?
Take personal documents, sunglasses, garage remotes, and child items you want to handle yourself. Loose coins and charging cables can stay if you mention them. The interior section describes which cabin areas we focus on.
How do I describe paint condition without technical jargon?
Tell us where swirls show—hood, doors, or dark paint in sunlight—and whether the car was polished or coated before. Paint correction explains how we assess clarity; deep chips and scratches may remain visible.
Can heavily soiled interiors be done in one session?
It depends on fabric type, stains, and how wet cleaning needs to be. A very dirty cabin may get thorough vacuum and surface work first, with deeper textile work planned for when fabrics can dry safely.
What affects how long a visit takes?
Heavy soil on paint or carpets, how much correction you want, and detailed interior work each add time. Sharing which areas matter most—exterior, cabin, paint, or protection—helps set realistic expectations for the day.
