Who it’s for

For paint that looks dull, rough or tired.

If the paint feels gritty, water spots hang on and brake dust is baked onto your wheels, Gloss Boss Exterior gives your ride a deep reset so it looks clean and polished again.

Daily driven cars

Highway bugs and hard water spots.

Ideal when normal exterior washes can’t keep up with road film, bug guts and light swirls from automatic car washes.

Garage and weekend cars

Bring back that stored shine.

Perfect for vehicles that sit, collect dust and haze, and need clay and polish to refresh gloss for shows or events.

Before protection or sale

Prep for ceramic or selling.

Great before you list the car for sale or step up to ceramic coating, so the paint already looks clean and smooth.

What’s included

Your Gloss Boss Exterior clay and polish.

Gloss Boss Exterior focuses on smoothing the paint, cleaning the wheels and refreshing under the hood. Here is how your exterior gets reset for $260.00 on most vehicles.

Car being rinsed and washed with foam before clay and polish exterior detail
Foam pre-wash and contact wash

Gentle foam soak and careful hand wash to lift loose dirt, road film and bug splatter so the paint is ready for clay and polish.

Clay bar style treatment

Clay treatment removes stuck on contaminants like overspray and industrial fallout so the surface feels noticeably smoother to the touch.

Detailer working on paint to improve gloss and clarity
Two step polish

A focused two step polish to brighten gloss, improve clarity and reduce light swirls so your paint has more depth and pop.

Detailer cleaning door jambs and surrounding areas for a complete exterior finish
Deep wheels, engine bay and jambs

Wheels and tires thoroughly cleaned, visible engine bay surfaces carefully wiped, exterior glass cleaned and door plus trunk jambs detailed.

Where it fits

Gloss Boss vs basic washes and full correction.

Gloss Boss Exterior goes far beyond a quick wash but is lighter than full multi stage paint correction. It is the sweet spot for most daily drivers that need real gloss back.

  • Perfect when the paint feels rough or looks dull after normal washes.
  • A strong upgrade from basic exterior wash and vac style services.
  • Pairs well with interior detail, paint correction or ceramic coating later.

Gloss Boss Exterior FAQs

How long does a Gloss Boss Exterior usually take?

Most Gloss Boss appointments take about 3 to 5 hours depending on vehicle size, paint condition and how much brake dust or buildup is on the wheels.

What does the clay bar treatment actually do?

Clay treatment removes bonded contaminants that washing alone cannot touch, like overspray, rail dust and industrial fallout. Afterward the paint feels smoother and is better prepared for polishing and protection.

Is engine bay cleaning safe for my car?

Yes, engine bay cleaning is done with care. Dee focuses on visible plastics and painted areas, avoids sensitive electronics and uses controlled moisture and wipe down methods rather than blasting everything with high pressure.

How long will the gloss and smoothness last?

Results vary by how the vehicle is stored and washed, but most drivers notice a slicker feel and better gloss for several months. Using good wash methods and avoiding harsh brushes helps the finish last longer.

Which vehicles qualify for the $260.00 price?

The $260.00 price covers most standard cars and small SUVs in typical used condition. Oversized vehicles or heavily neglected paint may be quoted a bit higher after Dee sees the exterior.
