The wrong wash kills matte paint permanently. We do it right.
Matte paint has no clear coat to polish. Touch it with a brush wash, a regular wax, or a swirly microfiber and you've created shiny spots that don't come out — except by repainting. We use matte-specific shampoo, dedicated matte microfibers, and matte-safe ceramic coatings (Gtechniq Crystal Lacquer Matte) that preserve the flat finish while protecting against contamination.
Matte-specific products only. The wrong cleaner on matte paint is a $5,000 mistake.
pH-neutral matte-specific soap (Gyeon Q²M Cure Matte, CarPro Reset). Never traditional polish-based washes.
Wash mitts kept separate from regular detail kits. Cross-contamination from a polish-residue mitt creates shiny streaks.
Iron + tar chemical decon only. Clay bar can create gloss on matte — strictly forbidden. Chemical-only contamination removal.
Gtechniq Crystal Lacquer Matte or Gyeon Q²M Skin Matte. Adds protection, preserves the dead-flat matte look.
Written matte-care instructions. What soaps to use, what to avoid, how to spot-clean bird droppings without creating shiny spots.
Wash + decon: 2 hours. Matte ceramic coating install: 5–6 hours. Combined: half-day appointment.
Three matte-paint owners who book us.
Just took delivery of a matte BMW, AMG, or G-Wagon? Book us before the first wash. One wrong tunnel wash and the finish is compromised.
Matte vinyl wraps have the same problem. We treat both painted matte and matte wrap with the same matte-safe process.
Shiny spots from previous improper washing? We can't reverse it but we can stabilize the rest of the finish and add proper protection going forward.
Four steps. Quote to done in a single appointment.
Two tiers — single wash service or full coating install.
Matte wrap clients: same pricing. Full G-Wagon and Cybertruck +$50. Annual matte refresh service: $149.
Three reasons most detail shops shouldn't touch matte paint.
Separate matte product line — soap, dressing, coating, microfiber. Cross-contamination from gloss products causes permanent shine spots.
Matte paint cannot be clayed or polished. Chemical decon only. Most detailers don't know this — we do.
Our techs are trained specifically on matte paint behavior. The number of detail shops that have damaged matte paint and learned from it is high.
Common add-ons clients book in the same appointment.
