Mobile service in Escondido — we come to you.
Hidden fees or surprise add-ons, pricing is upfront.
Stop settling for drive-thru tunnel washes that scratch your paint. Our mobile maintenance service brings safe, high-quality cleaning to your doorstep.
Maintaining a vehicle in North County San Diego requires more than just a bucket of soap. The "Mini Detail" is designed specifically for the daily driver that needs to battle the constant accumulation of dust, pollen, and road film found on Escondido roads. Unlike a standard car wash, which simply moves dirt around, our process focuses on safe removal and surface preservation.
We utilize high-pressure air tools to blow out tight crevices, side mirrors, and emblems where water typically hides and causes drips later. On the interior, we don't just vacuum the visible areas; we air-purge the vents and under the seats to ensure that the dust caused by our dry climate is actually removed from the cabin, improving your air quality.
Escondido is known for its agricultural dust and "hard water" mineral content. Our wash process includes water-spot prevention techniques and a high-lubricity soap that encapsulates dust particles, lifting them safely off the paint to prevent the swirl marks common on black cars in our area.
From spilled coffee to hiking debris, we reset your interior to a factory-fresh feel using steam and extraction technology.
The interior of your car is where you spend your time, and in the heat of Escondido, bacteria and odors can multiply quickly. Our Deep Interior Detail goes far beyond a quick vacuum. We systematically break down the cabin, cleaning every surface from the headliner to the carpet fibers. This service is essential for families, pet owners, or anyone buying a used car who wants to ensure it is sanitized.
We utilize Hot Water Extraction to lift deep-set stains from upholstery and floor mats. This isn't just wiping the surface; it is injecting cleaning solution deep into the foam and vacuuming it out, pulling years of dirt with it. We also use high-temperature steam to sanitize high-touch areas like steering wheels and gear shifters, removing the sticky residue of oils and lotions.
Escondido summers are hot. Heat causes leather to dry out and plastic to off-gas. Our interior detail includes a UV-inhibiting conditioner for all leather and vinyl surfaces. This keeps your seats soft and prevents the dashboard cracking common in North County vehicles.
Combining our Deep Interior Restoration with advanced Exterior Decontamination for a complete vehicle overhaul.
Our Complete Detail is the most comprehensive package we offer for daily drivers. It is the ideal service for lease returns, preparing a car for sale, or simply giving your vehicle a yearly "birthday." You get the full benefits of the deep interior cleaning—shampoo, steam, and conditioning—paired with a rigorous exterior decontamination process.
The exterior work in this package includes a Clay Bar Treatment. If you run your hand over your car hood and it feels rough like sandpaper, that is bonded contamination. Washing alone won't remove it. Our clay bar process physically pulls these embedded pollutants (brake dust, sap, industrial fallout) out of the clear coat, leaving the paint glass-smooth. We follow this with a premium sealant to lock in that shine.
In the competitive Escondido used car market, a clean engine bay and spotless upholstery can add $500-$1000 to your asking price. The Complete Detail pays for itself by restoring the "curb appeal" that buyers look for immediately.
Machine polishing to remove light scratches, oxidation, and "spiderwebbing" for a mirror-like finish.
Over time, vehicles in Escondido develop "swirl marks"—those circular scratches visible in direct sunlight. These are caused by automatic car washes, dusty winds, and improper drying techniques. They scatter light, making your paint look dull and grey rather than deep and glossy. Wax covers these temporarily; our Level 1 Paint Enhancement actually removes them.
This is a specialized service that utilizes a dual-action machine polisher and micro-abrasive compounds to gently level the clear coat. We remove 50-70% of light defects, erasing the haze and oxidation. This reveals the true color of the paint beneath. Once the paint is corrected, we seal it with a durable 1-Year Ceramic Sealant to protect that newfound gloss from the elements.
Many "detailers" in San Diego simply apply a glaze to hide scratches for a week. ZS Clean uses true correction methods. We are removing the microscopic peaks and valleys in your clear coat to create a surface that reflects light perfectly.
