Exterior Aircraft Detailing
The exterior is the first thing a passenger sees at the FBO door. We keep paint, windows and leading edges presentable between flights. Work is done in the hangar or on the ramp around your schedule.
What's included
- Walkaround and photo record of existing condition before any work
- Waterless wash of painted surfaces using aviation-appropriate products
- Acrylic-safe cleaning of windshields and cabin windows
- Leading-edge and inlet bug removal by hand
- Wheels and gear doors wiped. Belly and exhaust trails on request.
- After-photos and a short condition note for the operator

How we protect the aircraft
- Pitot tubes, static ports, AOA vanes and other sensors are identified before work begins. They are never sprayed or polished.
- Deice boots are treated only with approved products and only when the operator asks.
- Nothing is removed, adjusted or disconnected. Maintenance stays with your maintenance provider.
Questions
Do you need to move the aircraft?
No. We work where the aircraft is parked or hangared and coordinate with the FBO or hangar operator. We never tow or reposition aircraft.
Can you work outside on the ramp in winter?
Exterior work depends on temperature, wind, precipitation and product limits. In cold weather we schedule hangar time where the FBO allows it. Otherwise we plan around the forecast.
