Why New Cars Need Immediate Decontamination
This is the detail most new car buyers never think to get, and it is the most protective investment you can make in the first month of ownership. Vehicles shipped from manufacturing plants across the country travel on car carrier trucks and rail cars. During rail transport, every time a train brakes, iron particles from the brake systems contaminate every vehicle on the train. By the time your new car arrives at the Johnson County dealership, its paint surface already has bonded iron contamination.
Left unaddressed, this iron contamination begins a slow oxidation process under the clear coat surface. You will not notice it for 18-24 months — and by then it is too late for a simple decontamination fix. The solution is simple and affordable: schedule a decontamination detail in the first 2-4 weeks of ownership. We remove the contamination, apply a ceramic sealant for protection, and your factory paint starts its life properly protected.

What P&S Bead Maker Provides on New Paint
P&S Bead Maker is a polymer-based ceramic sealant that bonds to clean, decontaminated paint and provides UV protection, hydrophobic water beading, and gloss enhancement. On new paint, it creates a protective layer that makes future washing easier (contaminants do not bond as readily to sealed paint), preserves the factory clear coat, and dramatically improves the visual depth of the paint.
Applied after proper decontamination on a new vehicle, Bead Maker lasts 3-6 months before needing a refresh. For owners who want longer-term protection, we are adding full ceramic coating services in late 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I get my new car detailed right away?
Yes — and the reason surprises most people. New cars shipped from manufacturers on transport trucks accumulate iron contamination from rail dust during transport. This contamination bonds to the paint before you ever take delivery. A decontamination detail performed within the first few weeks removes this rail dust before it causes oxidation, and applies a ceramic sealant that protects the factory paint from the start.
What does a new car protection detail include?
Our Full Premier Detail ($325 sedan / $375 SUV) is the ideal new car protection package. It includes Dark Fury iron decontamination to remove any transport rail dust, clay bar treatment for a perfectly smooth surface, and P&S Bead Maker ceramic sealant to provide UV protection and hydrophobic water beading from day one. We come to your home in Johnson County — no dealership trip needed.
Is the dealer paint protection worth buying at the dealership?
In most cases, no. Dealership paint protection packages are typically marked up significantly and use products that are inferior to the professional-grade P&S Bead Maker we apply. Our Full Premier Detail costs $325-375 and uses the same products and process that professional detailing shops charge $500+ for in shop settings. The difference is that we come to you.
Do new cars need iron decontamination?
Yes — often more than used cars. Vehicles shipped by rail from manufacturing facilities in the Midwest and South accumulate iron particles from train brake dust during transport. These particles bond to paint before the car even arrives at the dealership. A professional decontamination detail in the first month of ownership removes this contamination before it causes any long-term paint damage.
