Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in an exterior-only detail?
Our exterior service covers a safe hand wash, wheel and tire-well cleaning, brake-dust removal, glass cleaning, trim and tire dressing, and a protective finish on the paint. It focuses entirely on the outside of your vehicle, so you are not paying for interior work you do not need.
Who is exterior-only detailing best for?
It is perfect for drivers who keep their interior clean but want their paint, wheels, and glass to look their best. It is also a smart, budget-friendly way to maintain your vehicle's appearance between full details or ceramic coating services.
Can I add clay bar or ceramic coating to the exterior detail?
Yes. Exterior detailing pairs naturally with a clay bar treatment for glass-smooth paint and with a ceramic coating for long-term protection. We can recommend the right combination based on your paint's condition and how long you want the results to last.
Is the exterior detail done at my home in St. Petersburg?
Yes. 123 Steam is fully mobile — we bring water, power, and all equipment to your home or office anywhere in the St. Petersburg metro and complete the entire exterior detail on-site. No drop-off needed.
How long does an exterior detail take?
Most exterior-only details are completed in a single visit. The exact time depends on your vehicle's size and condition, but because we focus only on the outside, it is faster than a full interior-and-exterior detail while still delivering a thorough, protected finish.
