All Season Detail - Salt Removal - 14 Audi RS5

DetailersDomain

On Vacation
We had a new customer come into the shop with his brand new 2014 Audi RS5 in Missano Red - beautiful!

He wanted to get his car cleaned up because it was new but did not want to do a full correction on it due to the winter we have been having - just clean up the paint and provide some good protection. Once the roads clean up he will be back for a proper correction.

Take a look at our all season detail a great way to maintain the car and keep it looking good and protected.
