How does a professional detailer wash a car? In this video, Thomas Laberge from @labautodetail shows us his complete professional exterior maintenance wash process, step by step.
As I recover from surgery, I’m stepping behind the camera and letting Thomas take over! We’ll explore his techniques, tools, products, and workflow, from deep cleaning wheels and tires to pre-washing, safe contact washing, rinsing, applying ceramic spray protection, drying, and dressing the tires.
I’ll ask questions, share insights, and highlight useful detailing tips as we go.
This is PART 2 of our three-part detailing series with Thomas:
• Part 1: Engine Bay Detailing
• Part 2: Exterior Maintenance Wash
• Part 3: Interior Detailing
Now sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!
