About Aircraft Detailing in Hill Country Village
Aircraft are unforgiving. The wrong product, the wrong technique, or the wrong cloth, and you've damaged paint that's tied to airworthiness or rivet lines that affect aerodynamics. Detail Doctor brings hospital-grade precision to aviation: we use only aviation-approved cleaners (Aero Cosmetics, Granitize, Plexus, and equivalents), microfiber-only application, hand-polishing on leading edges and rivet lines, and an absolute respect for static wicks, pitot tubes, antennas, and acrylic windshields. We detail everything from a Cessna 172 to a Citation X — including warbirds, experimentals, light sport, and rotorcraft. We come to your tie-down, T-hangar, FBO ramp, or owner-controlled hangar at Stinson (SSF), San Antonio International (SAT), Boerne Stage (5C1), New Braunfels Regional (BAZ), Hondo (HDO), Kerrville (ERV), Fredericksburg (T82), and many of the smaller strips across the Hill Country. Fully mobile with our own water and power, so we don't need an FBO bay or fuel-truck setup.
We proudly serve Hill Country Village and surrounding areas including Hill Country Village, Shavano Park. Whether you're near The Rim Shopping Center or anywhere in Hill Country Village, we bring our mobile clinic directly to your driveway.
Our Aircraft Detailing Process
Walk-Around & Pilot Brief
Confirm scope, identify sensitive items (taped sensors, repaired panels, fresh paint), and verify ramp or hangar access
Sensitive Area Masking
Tape and cover pitot tubes, static ports, AOA sensors, antennas, and anything the owner has flagged
Leading Edge & Belly Pre-Treatment
Apply aviation-grade bug and oil remover to leading edges, prop spinner, belly, and exhaust streaks
Dry Wash or Wet Wash
Wet wash with aviation-approved soap when the ramp allows; dry wash with Aero Cosmetics Wash Wax All on hangar floors or no-runoff ramps
Hand Polish — Paint & Brightwork
Hand-polish painted surfaces and bare aluminum brightwork (cowling, leading edges where applicable) — never rotary on rivet lines
Registration & N-Number Detail
Clean and protect N-numbers, registration markings, and exterior placards without lifting paint or vinyl
Acrylic Windshield & Glass
Clean acrylic windshields with Plexus or PlastX and a clean microfiber — never with standard glass cleaners that craze plexi
Interior Detail
Vacuum carpets, condition leather, clean side panels and headliner, wipe avionics screens with screen-safe microfiber, refresh upholstery, and sanitize touch points
Final Walk & Sign-Off
Remove all masking, do a final walk with the owner, and confirm every sensor and sensitive item was restored to its pre-detail state
