A complete detailing workflow

Wash, Foam, and Decontamination

Start with a clean surface

Use car wash soap and compatible wash media to remove routine dirt. Wheel cleaners, tire cleaners, iron removers, and dedicated brushes help target contamination that normal washing does not remove.

Wax, Sealants, and Ceramic Protection

Protect paint after cleaning

Best of Show wax, spray wax, sealants, and ceramic products offer different maintenance and protection options. Choose based on the paint condition, desired finish, and the amount of time available for application.

Polish, Pads, and Paint Correction

Match correction to the defect

Polish and machine-pad combinations should be selected for the paint condition and desired level of correction. Begin with the least aggressive approach, test a small area, and follow with appropriate paint protection.

Interior, Wheel, Tire, and Engine Care

Use surface-specific products

Interior detailers, glass cleaners, wheel cleaners, tire cleaners, engine cleaners, brushes, and microfiber tools help maintain every part of the vehicle. Use products as directed for leather, rubber, plastics, painted surfaces, and wheels.

Detailing Tools and Storage

Make routine care easier

Microfiber towels, wash tools, brushes, funnels, pad systems, and other accessories support a cleaner process. Separate tools by use area to reduce the chance of moving wheel grime onto paint.

Common Questions

What Griot's Garage product should I use for a basic wash?

Start with a quality car wash soap, clean wash media, drying towels, and a paint-safe detailer or protection product. Add wheel and tire cleaners as needed.

What is the difference between wax and ceramic protection?

Wax and ceramic products use different protection technologies and application processes. Choose based on your desired finish, maintenance routine, and the product instructions.

Can I use wheel cleaner on every wheel finish?

Always check the label and wheel manufacturer guidance. Some finishes need a specific cleaner or a more cautious process.

Do I need iron remover before waxing?

Iron remover can help remove bonded contamination after washing when the paint or wheels need additional decontamination. Use it according to the label directions.

Should I polish before applying wax or sealant?

Polish is used to address paint defects and should be followed by appropriate protection. A clean, prepared surface helps protection products perform correctly.

Can I use Griot's Garage products on a daily driver?

Yes. The collection includes routine wash, interior, wheel, tire, and protection products for regular vehicle maintenance.

How should I wash microfiber towels?

Wash microfiber towels separately from cotton fabrics and avoid contaminants that can reduce their performance. Follow the towel-care guidance from the manufacturer.

What should I use on vehicle interiors?

Choose an interior product intended for the specific surface, such as plastic, leather, glass, rubber, or fabric. Test a small area first.

Can I use a polishing pad by hand?

Some pads are made for machine polishers while others can support hand application. Review the product listing for the intended method.

Do detailing products have vehicle fitment limits?

Most car care products are broadly applicable, but surface type, paint finish, wheel material, and product instructions should guide the final selection.
