Details, Details

We like to think of that smelly, dirty vehicle which transports our children from place to place as not our car, but actually the kids’ car. With that perspective, it is easier to allow them to conduct those necessary in-car activities (such as eating ice cream) which quickly bring the interior to a maximum stickiness level but also might save our sanity.

So admittedly, we allow our children to make a mess sometimes, in the name of safety (and keeping them quiet), but we also need to maintain some sense of hygiene. It’s a constant battle. And, like with many things, there comes a time when we realize we need some professional help, beyond the usual ‘in and out’ car wash, which sometimes leaves us wanting more.

Yes, we’re talking ‘detailing’ and it’s not just for car buffs anymore now that we’ve discovered the ultimate mom service, mobile detailing (yes they come straight to your driveway) from C-SPEC Mobile Detailing Services. You can book your car ‘makeover’ online, and all you need to provide is access to water and a power supply.

Our C-SPEC team of two, who kept up their good spirits even when faced with five years worth of dog hair embedded in the carpet, found things in the minivan we never knew existed (on earth, that is). They took everything out, washed, scrubbed, polished, vacuumed and shampooed (even the interior roof, and yes, somehow, there were grimy marks up there too). When they were done (they spent five hours lovingly cleaning), it was like getting a brand new car—good enough to put on the market, but for the first time in years we actually wanted to keep it.

Services start at $125 depending on the size of your vehicle, so we agree that this is not a monthly exercise. But if there is ever a time that you might need a good scrub, it is probably now (we know what the summer road trips can do to your beloved family locker) and you definitely can see what you’re paying for (unlike with the under-the-hood car maintenance where you’re often left wondering what you just handed over $500 for).

So get back to post-summer reality driving in style. It’s all in the details after all.
