Exterior only · three staged packages

Exterior detailing, staged in three steps

Every package on this page covers the outside of the car and nothing else: paint correction, surface preparation, then a protective coating. Interiors, engine bays and glass polishing sit outside the scope and are quoted separately.

Each stage is sold as a complete unit rather than a menu of add-ons. Starting prices sit in the package table below across three size tiers, with the three conditions that trigger a surcharge named beside them. Before any machine work begins we take a 12-point ultrasonic paint-depth map and take it again once the panels are finished, so the amount of clear coat removed stays on record for the next visit.

  • 01 Paint correction
  • 02 Surface preparation
  • 03 Protective coating

Correction reduces defects inside the clear coat. Scratches that reach the colour layer are not removed, and ceramic coating is not impact protection.

02 / Stages

What each stage actually includes

Three staged exterior packages. Each stage is booked and priced on its own, so you pay only for the work the paint measurement shows it needs. Prices start from a figure and move across three size tiers: compact, mid-size and large SUV.

  1. 01

    Decontamination wash

    90 min · from 2 400 UAH

    Surface preparation only. The paint is cleaned, not corrected, so existing swirls and light scratches stay exactly as they are.

    • pH-neutral foam pre-soak and two-bucket hand wash
    • Iron fallout and tar removal on every painted panel
    • Mechanical decontamination with a clay mitt
    • Panel gaps, badges and trims dried with filtered air

    Measured result: 0 µm of clear coat removed, 0 GU gloss gain. Usually booked as the entry point or between correction services.

  2. 02

    Single-stage polish

    5 to 7 h · from 7 900 UAH

    One abrasive pass on a medium pad. It lifts wash marring and light swirls and leaves a uniform finish without chasing every deeper defect.

    • Full decontamination wash as stage 01
    • Paint-depth map read before the first pass
    • Single polishing pass on all exterior panels
    • IPA wipe-down and 12-point depth map repeated after

    Typical result: 1 to 2 µm removed, 6 to 10 GU gloss gain. Deep random scratches and sanding marks remain visible in raking light.

  3. 03

    Two-stage correction

    12 to 16 h · from 14 500 UAH

    A cutting pass followed by a refining pass, planned against the depth map so no panel loses more clear coat than it can spare.

    • Decontamination wash and panel-by-panel depth map
    • Cutting pass on a microfibre or wool pad
    • Refining pass on a soft foam pad to remove haze
    • Optional ceramic layer applied after the final wipe-down

    Typical result: 3 to 6 µm removed, 14 to 22 GU gloss gain. Surcharge applies for heavy oxidation, repainted panels or oversized vehicles.

04 / Limits

What this studio will not promise

Read this before the packages. A corrected panel can be measured. A promised finish cannot.

  • Clear coat only

    Correction removes defects inside the clear coat. Scratches that cut through the colour layer stay visible after polishing, and we say so before the machine starts.

  • Not impact protection

    A ceramic layer is not a shield against stone chips, door edges or kerb rash. It changes how the surface behaves, not how the panel absorbs a hit.

  • Durability is a range

    Entry ceramic holds 12 to 18 months; professional ceramic 3 to 5 years under typical Kyiv conditions, and only with the maintenance wash schedule kept.

  • Measured, not assumed

    Every panel receives a 12-point ultrasonic paint-depth map before and after, with figures in µm. Repainted panels often read thinner than the reading expects, and that limits what we can safely cut.

  • Not offered here

    No resprays, no dent pulling, no rust treatment. Where damage sits below the clear coat, we refer the car out rather than quote for work we cannot measure.

  • Three surcharges

    Only heavy oxidation, repainted panels and overspray on glass or trim add cost. Every other step sits inside the published starting price.

05 / BOOKING

Start with a free 20-minute inspection

We measure paint depth at 12 points, photograph the defects under 6500K light, and tell you which of the three staged exterior detailing packages actually fits your car. No work begins on the day of the visit.
