While just about anybody can do a fairly good job at cleaning their cars, actually detailing it to the point where it looks as if it has just left the factory is a whole different story.

Now, thanks to AMMO NYC, we have their so-called ‘Master Guide’ helping us out, which can be broken down into four categories: Core (Why), Sequence (Where), Methods (How) and, finally, the Rules.

For example, the Core (your reasoning) can be either to clean, correct or protect your vehicle. However, since this is a tutorial for beginners, it’s more focused on how to clean and protect your ride rather than correct any cosmetic imperfections or damages.

In the Sequence phase, the tutorial covers all areas that might require intervention, such as the paint job, the interior, the wheels, the glass and even the engine. Then you’ve got your Methods, which instructs you how to wash, rinse and dry your vehicle, or specific parts.

All in all, this is a very in-depth tutorial, hence its one and a half hour length. But if you want to get really good at detailing your car, we suggest you clear your schedule and watch the whole thing.
