In the Pacific Northwest, our vehicles see nearly every weather condition that mother nature has crafted, and this is often discouraging for those who want theirs to look shiny and clean. Automated washes are cheap and convenient but scratch the paint and never clean the edges and the wheels sufficiently. Touchless washes, also cheap and convenient, use highly acidic soaps that break down existing waxes and sealants and are often incapable cutting through all of the dirt and contamination. And without the requisite tools and an otherwise busy schedule, washing it yourself is often off the table.

Pinnacle Appearance seeks to rewind the clock to a time before your vehicle began to endure mother nature. Where other washes fail to clean and damage the finish in the process, we use the safest products and methods to achieve superior results. If you desire the most thorough and harmless cleaning possible, look no further than the Elite Exterior service.

FAQ

Instead of using traditional waxes that degrade quickly, we use NV Nova Lustre, which is a ceramic sealant that offers everything you love from a traditional wax (deeper gloss and hydrophobic properties) while offering an improved water contact angle and lasting far longer!

Longer than most, for good reason – we don’t cut corners. We would prefer to have at least one full day to work on the vehicle, and arrange pickup the following day. While not absolutely necessary, this does allow the sealant and plastic coatings to fully cure, which can lead to greater durability. 

We do, although we’d prefer to work on it at our shop if possible! If it makes it more convenient for you, we can pick your vehicle up, or you can drop it off beforehand and we’ll hold it until we’re able to start working on it. 

We are, and can provide proof of coverage if requested.
