Comprehensive Exterior Care for Every Aircraft

Your aircraft’s exterior is its first line of defense against Idaho’s challenging environment. From intense summer UV exposure at altitude to harsh winter conditions, the paint, windows, and metal surfaces endure constant assault. Our aircraft detailing services in Boise address every surface with aviation-specific products and techniques.

We begin every exterior service with a detailed inspection, using paint depth gauges and controlled lighting to identify oxidation, micro-scratches, and contamination that may not be visible to the naked eye. This assessment drives a customized treatment plan for your specific aircraft.

Our Deionized Water Advantage

Traditional water sources contain minerals that leave spots and deposits on aircraft surfaces. Our portable deionized water system produces pure, mineral-free water that ensures a spot-free finish without chemical intervention. This is especially critical for dark-painted aircraft and polished metal surfaces where water spots are highly visible.

The DI system also reduces our environmental footprint — we use significantly less water than traditional wash methods and the runoff is clean, meeting airport environmental compliance requirements.

From Spinner to Tail

Our exterior detailing covers every surface: fuselage, wings, empennage, landing gear, wheel wells, windows, leading edges, exhaust areas, and belly panels. For lasting protection after cleaning, consider pairing this service with ceramic coating or paint correction to restore and seal the finish. We use soft-bristle brushes designed specifically for aircraft paint systems, and our pH-balanced solutions are safe for all substrate types including composite, aluminum, and acrylic.

For aircraft operating in corrosive environments or during winter months, we pay special attention to de-icing fluid removal and underside decontamination — areas often overlooked by general cleaning services.

Exterior Detailing Questions Answered

What is the difference between dry wash and wet wash?
Dry wash uses specialized waterless solutions to clean the aircraft without water — ideal for ramp locations where water runoff is restricted. Wet wash uses deionized water for a deeper clean and is typically performed in a hangar environment.
How long does an exterior detail take?
A basic exterior wash takes 3-5 hours for a light jet. A comprehensive wash, polish, and wax for a large-cabin jet may take 1-2 full days.
Do you remove exhaust soot and carbon buildup?
Yes. We use specialized aviation-grade degreasing agents to safely remove exhaust soot, carbon deposits, and hydraulic fluid stains from all exterior surfaces.
