Detailing, ceramic coating and paint protection film in Manchester.

01 · THE SCIENCE

A stone leaves the tyre ahead at seventy miles an hour. What happens next is decided in two hundred microns. We practise those microns to the millimetre, panel by panel, under lights that forgive nothing.

For paint treated like it’s an art form.

The science

Gloss isn’t shine. It’s physics.

A swirl mark is a canyon roughly three microns deep, invisible until sunlight rakes across it and scatters in every direction. Detailing is the discipline of flattening that landscape: decontaminate the surface, level the clear coat by machine, then seal it so light has nothing left to catch on. The mirror finish isn’t something we put on your car. It’s order, restored at a scale you can’t see and can’t miss.

Add-ons

Glass coating

Polished, decontaminated and sealed. Rain gathers, beads and leaves of its own accord. A wet motorway becomes noticeably quieter work.

£99 · 2 years

Interior coating

An invisible guard for leather and cloth. Spills sit on the surface waiting to be wiped away, rather than soaking in to stay.

£149 · 1 year

Wheel coating

Wheels off, coated to the barrel: faces, calipers and arch liners. Brake dust, hot from the disc, finds nothing it can hold on to.

Paint protection film

The stone chip still happens. The paint never finds out.

We fit STEK DYNO film, a full 200 microns of engineered polyurethane at four times the depth of your clear coat, bonded invisibly over the bodywork. Stone chips spend their energy in the film instead of the paint. Light scratches heal out of it with a little warmth. Think of it as a save point for factory paint: invisible at arm’s length, unmistakable at resale.

Windscreen protection film

An optically clear film for the glass itself: motorway grit spends itself in the film rather than the screen, sparing you the chips and cracks that end in a replacement. Fitted without distortion and invisible from the driver’s seat.

Why Pinnacle

The difference is in the detail.

We came to detailing from six years in luxury car hire, where one standard governed every car that left the fleet: it returns better than it arrived. That discipline built Pinnacle Detailing in Birmingham. It now brings us to Manchester as the second branch of the same house. We specialise in luxury and supercars, we buy the finest chemistry available rather than the fastest and we hold a simple conviction: “clean enough” is a phrase that should never be spoken near paintwork.

The roadside wash

  • 15 to 30 minutes per car
  • As many cars as possible, quantity over quality
  • Aggressive chemicals to break down dirt fast
  • Same mitt and bucket for every car, so grit scratches paint
  • Harsh shampoo strips existing wax and sealant
  • Dried with chamois leather that can scratch
  • Wheels attacked with acid and rinsed off

The Pinnacle way

  • A minimum of 60 minutes per car
  • The highest level of clean, as safely as possible
  • High-quality products that maintain your protection
  • Two-bucket method, fresh water and mitt for every car
  • pH-neutral shampoo preserves wax and sealants
  • Dried with plush microfibre designed for the job
  • Wheels cleaned with pH-neutral shampoo and proper brushes

Testimonials

Don’t take our word for it.

Five stars, said six different ways. Reproduced word for word, as they were written.

“They brought life back to my car’s paintwork giving it a glass-like finish! The attention to detail is crazy and it’s the only place I use to maintain the bodywork on my car.”

Akeel · BMW M5 · Enhancement detail & wheel refurb

“Top quality service! If I could give more than 5★ I would. The attention to detail is most important for me and the equipment used is of the best quality.”

Saeed · Mercedes-AMG GT63 S & A35 · Mini detail

“The paintwork on my Golf was in a bit of a state from the previous owner. The multistage detail made my car look as if it just came out of the showroom.”

Aqib · VW Golf R · Correction detail

“Friendly, excellent, professional service and great quality of work. Did a top job on my R8, highly recommended.”

Ahasan · Audi R8 · Mini detail

“Amazing. I never thought the paintwork on my car could look so good. I’ve already booked a maintenance wash every two weeks to keep it in tip-top condition.”

Audi RS4 · Enhancement detail

“They clean both my cars every two weeks and each time the job is faultless.”

Faris · BMW M5 & VW T-Roc R · Mini detail

FAQs

Questions, answered.

The most common questions about detailing, ceramic coating and paint protection film at our Trafford Park studio. Anything else, ask us at sales@pinnacledetailingmcr.co.uk and we reply within 24 hours.

What is paint correction?+

Paint correction is machine polishing that levels the clear coat of your paintwork to remove swirl marks, light scratches and oxidation. A swirl mark is a canyon roughly three microns deep. Sunlight catches it and scatters, which is why neglected paint looks dull. We correct panel by panel across three levels, from a 50% single-stage enhancement to a two-stage detail that measures 95 to 99% correction, then seal the finish so it stays that way.

What is ceramic coating?+

A ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that bonds chemically to your paint, curing into a hard hydrophobic layer. Water beads and rolls off, dirt struggles to stick and UV fade is held at bay. We apply AutoBead graphene ceramic with up to five years of durability in a single 48-hour appointment, with matching coatings available for wheels, glass, leather and fabric.

What is paint protection film?+

PPF is an optically clear polyurethane film bonded over your bodywork. We fit STEK DYNO at 200 microns, four times the depth of your clear coat. Stone chips spend their energy in the film instead of the paint and light scratches self-heal with warmth. Every piece is cut on machinery before it meets the car, so no blade ever touches your paint. Coverage runs from the front end at £1,500 to the full car, all backed by a 5-year guarantee.

Do you only work on supercars?+

No. We specialise in luxury cars and supercars, and that standard is exactly what your daily driver gets too. Detailing starts from £349, maintenance plans from £60 a month and every car gets a minimum of 60 minutes, fresh wash media and pH-neutral chemistry.

Where is the studio and how do I get there?+

Unit 12, Westbrook Trading Estate, Trafford Park, Manchester M17 1AY. We are minutes off the M60 at junctions 9 and 10, with the A5081 Trafford Park Road on the doorstep and the A56 and M602 close by. Open Monday to Saturday, 10am to 5pm.
