How Often Should You Get Your Car Detailed?

When it comes to car maintenance, most people focus on oil changes and tire rotations—but what about car detailing? Detailing isn’t just for show cars or luxury vehicles. It’s a crucial part of preserving your vehicle’s value, appearance, and performance. But how often should you actually get your car detailed?

The Statistics Say...

According to AAA, nearly 66% of drivers wash their vehicle less than once a month. Worse, about 15% admit they rarely wash their car at all. While washing is one part of vehicle care, full detailing goes several steps further—cleaning, restoring, and protecting every surface.

Why It Matters in McKinney, TX

In Collin County, your vehicle battles more than just dirt. Harsh Texas sun, airborne dust, grass pollen, and heat-related wear all contribute to accelerated interior and exterior aging. Left untreated, UV damage can cause dashboards to crack, leather to fade, and paint to oxidize.

Recommended Detailing Frequency

• Full Detail (Interior & Exterior): Every 3–4 months

• Interior Only Detail: Every 1–2 months, especially for families or pet owners

• Exterior Only Detail: Monthly during spring/summer to protect from sun and contaminants

• Maintenance Wash Program: Anywhere from Bi-weekly to Bi-Monthly to preserve showroom condition year-round
