Bespoke
Detailing.

A meticulous renewal of every surface, inside and out — leather, alcantara, engine bay, wheels and glass — written as a programme for one specific car, then carried out by hand over days.

The Programme

No two cars get the same detail.

Bespoke means the work is written for the car in front of us, not copied from a menu. A garage-kept GT and a summer cabriolet do not need the same hours — so everything begins with an inspection, and the programme follows what the car actually asks for.

Four stages, always in the same order: read the car, renew the cabin, refine the body, then seal the work so it lasts. Each surface is treated with the product and the pressure it was designed for — nothing generic ever touches the car.

What It Does
Renews

Leather fed, alcantara lifted, carpets extracted — a cabin that reads years younger without replacing a thing.

Reaches

Wheels off, arches and calipers detailed, engine bay finished by hand. Where valeting stops, this begins.

Clarifies

Glass machine-polished free of wiper haze; trim and brightwork brought back to full definition.

Endures

Every renewed surface sealed — fabric, leather, paint and glass — so the work holds for seasons, not weeks.

Three Tiers

Choose how deep we go.

Every tier is carried out by one specialist in a sealed bay, and every car leaves photographed and logged. The difference is time — how deep each surface is taken.

Questions
How long does a bespoke detail take?

From one day for a Refresh to a week or more for a full restoration detail. The honest answer follows the inspection: once we have read every surface, we give you a fixed schedule in writing — and the car stays in the sealed bay until it is met.

How do you treat leather and alcantara?

Gently, and never with an all-purpose product. Leather is cleaned pore by pore with pH-balanced foam, then fed and sealed so it stays matte and supple. Alcantara is lifted dry with soft brushes — moisture and heat are what ruin it, so we use neither.

How often should a car be detailed?

A full bespoke detail once a year keeps most cars at their best; a Refresh each season maintains it in between. Coated or filmed cars need less. After the first visit we know your car — and will tell you honestly when it needs us, and when it does not.

Is engine bay cleaning safe?

Done our way, yes. No pressure washer, no soaking — electronics and connectors are masked, then every component is cleaned by hand with controlled products and finished with a dry dressing. The bay looks factory-fresh, and nothing sensitive ever gets wet.

The Craft of Detailing

What it really means
to detail a car.

Everything we believe about interior care, leather, engine bays and the slow renewal of a car by hand — the long version, for the people who actually read it.

A detail is not a wash.

The word detailing has been diluted to mean a good wash. It began as something else: the slow, methodical renewal of every surface a car owns — leather, alcantara, carpet, paint, glass, metal — each treated with the chemistry and the patience it was designed for. That is the discipline we practise in Nice.

So a bespoke detail here does not start with a bucket. It starts with light and a notebook: every panel, seam and pore read and logged before anything is touched. The programme we then write belongs to one car — yours — which is what bespoke actually means.

The interior is where a car ages.

Paint fades in years; a cabin ages in months. Sun on the dashboard, hands on the wheel, sand in the carpet — the interior takes the wear the body never sees. So we give it the most careful hours: leather care pore by pore, alcantara lifted dry, every seam and vent finished with brushes we count in millimetres.

Nothing all-purpose ever enters the cabin. Leather keeps its matte, factory hand; plastics stay satin, never greasy; and the car smells of nothing at all — which is what clean actually smells like.

Wheels off, bonnet up.

The difference between a wash and a detail lives in the places you cannot see from the kerb. Wheels come off so arches, calipers and hubs can be cleaned as carefully as the bonnet. The engine bay is masked, hand-cleaned and dressed dry — no pressure washer, ever. And glass polishing removes the wiper haze and water etching that make even a perfect car feel tired at night.

Then everything is sealed: fabric, leather, paint, wheels and glass each under its own protection, so the work survives the first rain instead of leaving with it.

One car at a time, in Nice.

We work by appointment from a sealed, light-controlled atelier on the Côte d'Azur — one car in the bay, one specialist from first inspection to final walk-around. Days, not hours, because that is what hand work honestly takes.

Every bespoke detail in Nice is photographed, logged and handed back with a written record of what was done — so the next visit starts where this one finished, and the car only ever moves forward.
