Exterior Car Detailing, Hand Washed in Melbourne
Road film, bugs, tar, mud, sand and worksite residue need more than a quick pass. Koby's Car Shine washes panel by panel to lift grime without grinding it across your paint.
Automatic brushes can leave fine swirls. We use a controlled hand wash instead.

A safer hand-wash sequence
- Pre-rinse and snow foam soften loose grit first.
- Two buckets, a grit guard and fresh wash media limit grit transfer.
- Work top down, keeping lower, dirtier panels until last.
- Finish with a controlled rinse and plush towel or filtered air.
Fresh media for each panel group.
Wheels stay separate
Brake dust and iron particles are handled before the body wash, so wheel grime doesn't travel onto paint.
- Wheel faces and accessible barrels
- Tyre sidewalls and arch liner rinse-out
Baked-on brake dust may need a stronger dedicated treatment. We assess it on arrival.
Clean where it counts
Glass, road film and night visibility
Clear glass matters after dark. We clean inside and out, including mirrors and light lenses, then target road film on lower panels, sills and rear hatches.Exterior finish checklist
Sensor-safe areas are cleaned without abrasive contact.
Stubborn grime gets time
Bugs, tar, mud, sand and organic debris are soaked before contact. No hard scraping.
- Bug residue and tree sap get a dedicated pre-soak.
- Tar and bitumen spots get a paint-safe solvent, then a local re-wash.
- Sand and mud are rinsed loose before wash media touches the surface.

passes when residue needs them
Trade utes and work vans can carry cement dust, plaster, silicone overspray and construction fallout. Four-wheel drives often arrive with clay packed into arches.
The finish sets the method
Black paint gets careful towel and drying choices because marks show in direct light. White paint needs close attention to tar, bugs and brake dust. Matte and low-gloss finishes get products suited to their surface.
