Pitt Stop Detail and Auto Sales has never held back from our feelings that keeping your car, inside and out, in tip top shape is good for many reasons. You may be less than inclined at our recommendation to keep your engine clean. However, there are a number of purposes for keeping this hidden space clean, far beyond it looking spic and span.

With all the road construction in our area it is no wonder more damage doesn’t happen to our vehicles. We are thankful for the smooth roads to get from place to place, but the delays, microscopic scratches, and potentially larger cosmetic issues can be a concern.

We know our clients would love to bring their cars, trucks, SUVs, and other vehicles to Pitt Stop Auto every day to get cleaned out and looking fresh and new. We also know that isn’t really an option for them.

This is true for all types of interiors, including your leather seats.

There are a number of people who get carsick or just plain sick in the car. The same is true for our furry friends, some of who are very likely to add pet stains and vomit to the interior of your vehicle. After you get home, you may wonder what to do next. Pitt Stop Detail has a few tips for how to get your vehicle back in shape.

Pitt Stop Auto’s first recommendation is to park your vehicle as high in your driveway as possible when large amounts of rain heads our way and to never try to drive through floodwater. This is a safety issue as much as a way to protect your property. That being said, our team knows there are times when a flooded vehicle is unavoidable and you will want your car or truck returned to tip top shape as soon as possible.

It may be easy to understand why upgrading your car’s sound system or repairing the rip in your driver’s seat upholstery would be a good way to spend money, but there are other great ways to cover your car and your investment that may not be as common. Investing in a ceramic coating provides an extra layer of shine and protection and is a visible way to make your car look great. Pitt Stop can provide this great service with all the care and attention to detail we give to all of our customers.

We know your car, whether for work or for pleasure, is a large part of your life.

As regularly as you may have the exterior cleaned and maybe even having the interior detailed, sometimes strange odors and smells pop up. Pitt Stop Auto Detail can help you discover what is causing these smells and help you get rid of them so your car is in perfect shape.
