Top-Rated Exterior Detailing in South Jersey
A clean car and a detailed car are not the same thing. Our exterior detailing goes beyond the wash, cleaning the wheels, wells and jambs where the heaviest dirt collects, hand washing the paint and sealing every panel with ceramic protection for a finish that stays flawless long after we leave. We work mobile across South Jersey or in shop at Pennsauken.
Restored to a mirror-like finish
Professional exterior detailing at your driveway or our Pennsauken shop
A truly exceptional finish is never the product of a quick wash but the result of meticulous care. At Stewart’s Auto Care, our exterior detailing restores the paintwork to an immaculate standard, beginning with the wheels so brake dust never touches clean panels, decontaminating the finish to lift the embedded grime a wash cannot, and hand washing every surface in straight, careful passes so no new swirls are introduced. We complete it at your home or office anywhere in South Jersey or at our shop in Pennsauken.
The outcome is a pristine finish that is rich in depth and flawless in clarity, with paint that holds a deep, mirror-like reflection, wheels that look new again and a ceramic spray sealant that preserves that brilliance long after we hand back the keys. Our purpose is to protect your vehicle rather than merely make it shine, and that is what sets our exterior detailing apart.
Benefits of a professional exterior detail
Six things you notice once the outside has been done properly. Tap any row to read more.
Swirl-Free Wash
Swirl-Free Wash Most swirls in a car’s paint come from the way it is washed. We work in straight lines with clean mitts and plenty of lubrication, so your paint is cleaned without a single new mark being introduced.
Deep Decontamination
Deep Decontamination A wash removes the dirt you can see, but road film and brake dust bond to the paint and stay behind. Our decontamination step lifts that embedded grime away, leaving the finish smooth, pristine and ready to shine.
Mirror-Like Finish
Mirror-Like Finish With the contamination gone and the paint washed properly, the true depth of the color returns. The finish holds a deep, clear reflection that looks the way it did on delivery day.
UV and Oxidation Protection
UV and Oxidation Protection Sunlight and the elements fade unprotected paint a little more each day. The ceramic spray sealant we apply to every panel forms a protective layer over the finish, slowing that oxidation and keeping the color rich.
Higher Resale Value
Higher Resale Value A finish that is deep, protected and free of swirls tells a buyer the car has been cared for. That first impression carries real weight when an offer is made.
Coating-Ready Paint
Coating-Ready Paint Every great ceramic coating starts with flawless preparation. Our exterior detail leaves your paint clean, smooth and ready for ceramic coating.
Upkeep or full protection

Our process
How we detail your exterior
Here is how your car moves through our hands, step by step, from the dirtiest part to the final shine.
Wheels, Liners and Jambs
We start with the wheels, because they are the dirtiest part of the car. The faces, the inside barrels and the wheel liners are cleaned, and the door jambs are washed carefully so no water gets inside.
Pre-Rinse and Decontaminate
The car is rinsed to remove loose dirt, then covered in foam with a decontamination agent that is left to work. It lifts the road film and grime that a normal wash leaves behind.
Swirl-Free Contact Wash
Every panel is hand washed in straight lines from top to bottom, so the wash adds no new swirls or scratches. The soap and decontamination agent are then rinsed away.
Seal and Dry
A ceramic spray sealant is applied to every panel for protection and a deep shine. The car is then towel dried by hand so no water spots are left behind.

Common questions
What people ask before they book
Still have a question? Give us a call. We would rather explain than let you guess.
Do you come to me or do I bring the car in?
Both options are available. We can complete any exterior package at your driveway, workplace or lot anywhere in South Jersey, or you are welcome to bring the vehicle to our shop in Pennsauken.
What is the ceramic sealant on Level 2?
The ceramic spray sealant we apply typically protects the paint for three to six months, depending on how the car is stored, driven and washed. If you want protection measured in years rather than months, our ceramic coating packages are the next step, with options from three to five years.
Will it take out swirl marks and scratches?
No. A wash cleans and protects the paint, but it does not remove defects that are already in the clear coat. Swirl marks and light scratches are removed through paint correction, which is available as an add-on. Contact us and we will assess what the paint needs.
How long will it take?
A Level 2 exterior detail takes about 45 minutes, and a motorcycle detail takes about the same. If a vehicle needs more time than expected, we will let you know before we begin rather than after.
How is the motorcycle detail priced?
Every motorcycle detail starts from $80 and is custom quoted based on the type, size and condition of the bike. A sport bike in good condition and a touring bike with heavy oxidation are very different jobs, so we confirm the price once we know what we are working with.
