Starting at $120 interior / $100 exterior.

Baltimore's humidity, airborne contaminants, and winter road treatments can gradually reduce the appearance and durability of unprotected paint. Our ceramic coating packages, Daily Driver ($600), Car Enthusiast ($1,300), and Show Off ($2,500), create a long-lasting hydrophobic layer, with paint correction included in every package above the entry level.

custom-cut paint protection film (PPF), also known as clear bra, with
transparent package pricing: Partial ($900), Full Front ($1,800), Track Pack ($2,200), and Full Body ($5,000), providing precise coverage for the areas you want to protect most.
Paint Correction in Baltimore
Automatic car washes, improper washing techniques, and normal wear can leave swirl marks and light scratches that become more visible in direct sunlight. Our 1-step and 2-step paint correction services begin with a detailed inspection under specialized lighting to determine the right level of correction for your vehicle.

Maryland tint law requires front side windows to allow at least 35% VLT.

FAQs About Car Detailing in Baltimore, MD
What is the legal window tint percentage in Maryland?
Maryland Code Ann. § 22-406 sets front side windows at 35% VLT or lighter, prohibits tint above the manufacturer's AS-1 line on the windshield, and places no VLT minimum on rear windows for many passenger vehicles, subject to applicable state regulations. We install window tint in accordance with Maryland requirements and provide the manufacturer compliance certificate when required for your vehicle.
Does Baltimore's humidity affect ceramic coating?
Yes. Temperature, humidity, and surface preparation can all influence how a ceramic coating is applied and cured. For that reason, we complete installations inside our Westminster facility, where conditions are more consistent than working outdoors. We also provide aftercare instructions to help customers get the best long-term performance from their coating.
How far is your Westminster shop from Baltimore city?
Maryland Clean Rides operates from 150 Airport Dr, Unit #12, Westminster, MD 21157, about 40 to 50 minutes from most areas of Baltimore, depending on traffic and your starting location. Many customers choose to visit us for services such as ceramic coating, paint protection film, and paint correction because these installations benefit from a controlled indoor environment and experienced application.
How does Maryland's winter road salt affect my vehicle?
Road salt and magnesium chloride used during Maryland winters can remain on your vehicle's undercarriage, accelerating corrosion if left untreated for extended periods. Regular washing, paint protection, and underbody protection can all help reduce long-term damage. Depending on your vehicle and driving habits, ceramic coating, paint protection film (PPF), or professional undercoating may all be worthwhile options.
What ceramic coating packages do you offer?
We offer three ceramic coating packages: Daily Driver ($600), Car Enthusiast ($1,300 with 1-step paint correction), and Show Off ($2,500 with 2-step correction plus wheel, glass, undercarriage, and interior ceramic coatings). Pricing varies for SUVs and trucks.
Do you offer car undercoating for Baltimore vehicles?
Yes. Through our partnership with Dark Desire, we provide professional undercoating services designed to help protect frame rails, brake lines, fuel lines, suspension components, and other exposed metal surfaces from corrosion caused by road salt and moisture. Every vehicle is inspected after application to help ensure consistent coverage.
