Car Ceramic Coating Cornelius NC | Water Rolls Off, Bird Poop Wipes Off

Boat detailing is a full reset for your boat's fiberglass, gelcoat, and interior, not a quick rinse. At AJW Detailing we read your hull with a gloss meter and a reflection light, then wet sand or compound out the oxidation, cloudiness, and chalkiness before sealing everything with a ceramic coating. We never use wax. We're 100% mobile across Lake Norman, from Cornelius and Huntersville to Denver and every marina in between.

Car detailing is a deep clean and paint correction for your vehicle, inside and out. At AJW Detailing we polish out swirls and scratches, deep-clean and condition the interior, and seal your paint with a ceramic coating so water, bugs, sap, and bird droppings wipe right off. We never use wax. We're 100% mobile across Lake Norman, from Cornelius and Huntersville to Denver and Charlotte, and we come to your driveway.

Boat ceramic coating is a permanent protective layer applied to your boat's gelcoat that shields it from Lake Norman's UV damage, oxidation, and water spotting for years. We use Glidecoat Pro ceramic coating with a laser gloss meter to measure your boat's surface (aiming for 90-100+ gloss readings, higher than the 70 gloss your boat came with from the factory).

Car ceramic coating is a permanent protective layer applied to your car's paint that shields it from UV damage, swirl marks, water spotting, and road contaminants for years. We use Glidecoat Pro ceramic coating with a laser gloss meter to measure your paint's surface (aiming for 90-100+ gloss readings, higher than most factory paint which sits around 75-85 gloss when new).

RV and camper detailing is a deep clean of your motorhome or travel trailer's exterior and interior (not just a quick rinse at the RV wash station). We're removing black streaks, oxidation, and road grime from fiberglass or aluminum sidewalls, treating the rubber roof, cleaning awning fabric, scrubbing the interior, and sealing surfaces to protect against North Carolina UV damage and humidity.

Fleet washing is scheduled maintenance cleaning for businesses with multiple vehicles (work trucks, vans, trailers, boats, service vehicles). We come to your location in the Lake Norman area on a recurring schedule (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly) and wash your entire fleet so your vehicles stay presentable without your team spending time on it.

Oxidation removal is the process of eliminating the chalky, hazy layer that forms on your boat's gelcoat or car's paint when UV exposure breaks down the surface over time. We use a laser gloss meter to measure how severe the oxidation is (most oxidized boats on Lake Norman measure 20-40 gloss when they should be 70+ from the factory), then we wet sand or compound in stages to remove the damaged layer and restore the high-gloss finish underneath.

Paint correction is the multi-stage process of removing defects from your car's clear coat (swirl marks, scratches, oxidation, water spots, holograms) using progressively finer compounds and polishes until the paint is mirror-finish. We use a laser gloss meter to measure your paint at each correction stage (targeting 90-100+ gloss readings, compared to most factory paint which sits around 75-85 gloss when new).

Scratch removal is the process of eliminating surface scratches from your boat's gelcoat or car's paint by leveling the surrounding material down to the depth of the scratch using wet sanding, compound, and polish. We use a laser gloss meter to measure the area before and after correction (targeting 85+ gloss minimum after we're done), and we can only remove scratches that haven't penetrated completely through the gelcoat or clear coat layer.

Interior stain removal is the process of extracting deep-set stains from carpet, upholstery, vinyl, and fabric in your boat or car using commercial-grade equipment and specialty cleaners. We're treating everything from mold and mildew stains (common in Lake Norman boats that sit closed up) to food and drink spills, sunscreen residue, fuel stains, and mystery marks that have been sitting for months or years.

Wheel and rim restoration is the process of removing brake dust buildup, curb rash, oxidation, and clear coat failure from your wheels to restore them to like-new condition. We're polishing out scratches, repairing minor damage, cleaning embedded contaminants, and sealing the surface so brake dust doesn't bond as aggressively (which is a constant problem in North Carolina humidity and road salt).

Water spot removal is the process of eliminating the mineral deposits that hard water etches into your boat's gelcoat or your car's paint. When splashed or sprayed water dries in the Lake Norman sun, calcium and magnesium bond to the surface and leave those white circles and spots. At AJW Detailing we lift them with acid-based removers, then compound and polish wherever the minerals have etched in deep, measuring with our gloss meter so we know the spots are truly gone. We're 100% mobile across Cornelius, Huntersville, Denver, and all of Lake Norman.

Boat bottom cleaning strips the algae, scum, and waterline buildup off the part of your boat that sits in the water all season. Lake Norman's algae is relentless: it latches onto pontoon tubes and fiberglass hulls every year and drags your speed down. At AJW Detailing we acid-wash and aluminum-brighten pontoon tubes back to bright silver and scrub fiberglass hull bottoms clean, working on the forklift at Holiday Marina and marinas across Lake Norman. We'll even pick the boat up and bring it back.

Marine tinting is the application of window film to boat windshields, windows, and hatches to reduce glare, block UV rays, and lower cabin temperatures on the water. AJW Detailing installs marine-grade film on pontoons, center consoles, and cabin cruisers throughout Lake Norman using film built to handle the moisture, UV exposure, and flex that standard automotive tint cannot.
