Detail-obsessed. Customer-obsessed.
We’re a Johannesburg-based detailing studio focused on safe wash methods, honest pricing and finishes that make people double-take at the robots. We bring pro techniques to daily drivers, weekend toys and everything in between.
Our story
LY Industries was born from weekend wash days that somehow took all weekend. Friends started asking for the same level of care, then their friends did. We formalised the process, invested in pro-grade tools, and built a simple promise: treat every car like it’s our own.
We’re mobile in Gauteng and also work from our home base in Johannesburg for overnight details.
-
No shortcuts
Two-bucket wash, safe drying, proper decon. If it saves your clear coat, we do it.
-
Honest pricing
Transparent rates with package tiers and add‑ons, no surprises on the driveway.
-
Premium products
We choose products for performance, not labels. If we wouldn’t use it on our cars, it won’t touch yours.
-
Satisfaction guarantee
If we miss a spot, we make it right. Full stop.
A safe, repeatable process
Repeatable systems beat guesswork. Here’s our baseline for most details.
-
1
Pre‑rinse & snow foam
Loosen grime safely to reduce contact wash marring.
-
2
Contact wash
Two-bucket method, pH‑balanced soap, soft mitts.
-
3
Decontamination
Iron and tar removal, clay (as needed) for a smooth base.
-

Correction & protection
Machine polish to reduce defects; sealant or ceramic for durability.

Interior refresh
Thorough vacuum, plastics dressed with UV protection, glass made invisible.
-

Final checks
We inspect under different lighting so it looks mint in sun and shade.
Professional tools, proven chemistry
We choose pH‑balanced shampoos, non‑greasy dressings and silica‑based protectants. Microfibres are washed separately — yes, we’re those people.
pH‑balanced wash
Safe for coatings and waxes.
Iron & tar removers

Correction compounds
Low‑dust, high‑gloss finishes.
