Welcome to the ultimate guide for Tesla car detailing services, brought to you by San Diego Select Detailing. As a Tesla owner, you understand the importance of protecting your investment, especially when it comes to the delicate paintwork that defines your vehicle's sleek appearance. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore the best practices and specialized services for Tesla car detailing, with a particular focus on paint protection and ceramic coating.
Tesla vehicles are renowned for their cutting-edge design and advanced technology, but their paintwork requires special attention due to its susceptibility to damage. This is why you see so many Tesla owners getting ceramic coatings, wraps, and PPF straight from the factory. Tesla's factory paint is known to be relatively fragile compared to traditional automotive paint, making it more vulnerable to scratches, swirl marks, and environmental contaminants. Protecting your Tesla's paint not only preserves its aesthetic appeal but also maintains its long-term value, while getting a wicked shine at the same time.
Ceramic coating is a revolutionary protective treatment that forms a durable, transparent layer over your Tesla's paintwork. This nano-ceramic coating provides unparalleled protection against a wide range of environmental hazards, including UV rays, bird droppings, tree sap, road salt, and more. By creating a hydrophobic surface that repels water and contaminants, ceramic coating helps maintain your Tesla's showroom shine and makes cleaning a breeze.
At San Diego Select Detailing, we specialize in providing premium car detailing services tailored specifically for Tesla vehicles. Our team of expert detailers understands the unique needs of Tesla owners and utilizes industry-leading techniques and products to deliver exceptional results. Here's a closer look at our Tesla car detailing services:

The shampoo and hot water extraction is the best possible care for your FABRIC seats.
We will bathe your seats in thick foam shampoo, agitate it with a fabric brush attachment on a drill, and then extract all the grime, dirt, stains and contaminant from the seats with hot water at 210ºF. If your seats need a refresh, this is as good as it gets. Because the service takes 45 minutes on average, and only a small percent of vehicles need it we charge extra for it. Don't worry - its only $50 extra. Totally worth it.
Do you have any little scrapes and scratches that bother you?
We can handle it.. to an extent. We are polishing experts - so if the scratch isn't too deep, we can get it out. Ever heard of "The Fingernail Test", this is a great way to know if your scratches are fixable. If you feel the scratch will your fingernail and you can feel a groove in the paint, it it probably a little bit too deep ~in the sections where the groove is~
A clay bar is exactly what it sounds like, a little ball of malleable puddy.
This is used in the decontamination phase of the detail to prepare your paint for protection. Clay Bar Detailing is essential for preparing your vehicle's paint for protection by ensuring it is free of contaminants.
Every exterior detail has 3 phases: 1. Wash 2. Decontaminate 3. Protect. The decontamination stage is responsible for removing from the paint everything that doesn't come off from the wash.
Remember when you bought your car and the paint was smooth to the touch? That is the goal of this stage. Remove all the crusty junk that is stuck to you paint. This way, when we apply sealant (protection) to your paint it will adhere to the paint itself, rather than the junk sitting on the surface. This will give the sealant its longest possible useful life.
For the same reason that you get an oil change. Engines are expensive to replace (8-15K) so we take good care of them. So is your paint - the average paint job costing around $5,000. If you don't protect your paint with some type of ceramic, wax, or sealant, your paint WILL fail.
In San Diego, our biggest enemy is the sun, or the salt if you live near the beach. Next time you are in a big parking lot, look around at the hoods of the vehicles. You will notice around 1/6 vehicles have completely delaminated clear coat.
That means the paint looks like dead skin on the surface and you could peel it off with you fingers. Not pretty. There is a simple solution to ensure your vehicle never ends up like this. Exterior Detailing. Bonus points for a ceramic coating with is the best protection possible.
