Aviation-grade detailing for Citation CJ series, Embraer Phenom, Bombardier Learjet, HondaJet, Eclipse — light business jets.
Olmos Park-based light jets owners typically operate out of San Antonio International (SAT, in town). Corporate hangars (Texas Jet, Cutter Aviation, Million Air, Atlantic Aviation) — heavy and midsize jets. We also work Stinson Municipal (SSF) and Boerne Stage Field (5C1) for owners with hangar arrangements across multiple fields.
Service specs · Olmos Park
Olmos Park is one of San Antonio's smallest and wealthiest enclaves. Lots are tight and owners typically keep their boats and RVs at lake-side slips or storage, with corporate jets hangared at SAT and Stinson. We service the driveways for whatever's at home and meet the rest at its keep location.
Owner profile. Tight-knit ultra-luxury enclave inside San Antonio, small lots, generational-wealth homes, primarily corporate jet owners and high-end sport-boat enthusiasts who trailer to Canyon Lake or Lake Travis.
Light jets — Citation Mustang, M2, CJ1-CJ4, Embraer Phenom 100/300, Learjet 31/35/40, HondaJet, Eclipse 500/550 — are the entry tier of jet aviation. Owner-flown by single-pilot-certified owners or operated by small charter outfits, they spend their lives between hangared overnight rests and high-speed cruise above FL310. The cruise altitude means leading-edge bug strikes happen at higher impact and bond harder to the paint than on a piston single. The hangar life means cosmetic standards are higher than on a ramp-parked GA aircraft. Owners typically detail twice a year (or before sale) and expect a result that's near-OEM. We deliver that — but never with a rotary buffer near a rivet line, never with a cleaner that crazes acrylic, and never without a walk-around with the pilot first.

Pre-detail walk-around with the owner-pilot or chief pilot — confirm scope, identify any tape or markings, repair patches, fresh paint.
Mask pitot tubes, static ports, AOA vanes, TAT probes, antennas, weather radar radome.
Engine inlet covers fitted before any wash starts.
Static wick check — note any bent or missing wicks for the pilot's awareness.
Leading edges, prop spinner (if applicable on turbo-singles), belly: aviation-grade bug and exhaust remover, hand-worked.
Dry wash with Aero Cosmetics Wash Wax All inside hangars; wet wash with approved soap on ramps with proper drainage.
Hand-polish painted surfaces — never rotary on rivet lines, fairings, or repair patches.
Acrylic windshield and side windows cleaned with Plexus or distilled water and approved methods only.
Cabin: leather conditioning, wood veneer wipe with veneer-safe product, plated hardware polish, carpet vacuum, lavatory deep clean (if present).
Avionics screen-safe cleaning (Garmin G3000 / G5000, Collins Pro Line 21 / Fusion, Rockwell Collins, Honeywell Primus).
Engine cowling polish, exhaust cone wipe (no aggressive scrubbing — exhaust cones are sensitive).

Yes — San Antonio International (SAT, in town) is part of our regular service rotation. We coordinate hangar or ramp access with the FBO or owner ahead of every appointment. Corporate hangars (Texas Jet, Cutter Aviation, Million Air, Atlantic Aviation) — heavy and midsize jets.
Yes — dry wash with Aero Cosmetics Wash Wax All inside hangars where water isn't allowed. Zero runoff, no FBO complaints. We coordinate with the FBO and hangar landlord ahead of every appointment.
No — we hand-polish carbon with appropriate compound only. Phenom and HondaJet carbon-fiber components are common; we never use solvents that attack epoxy resins. If you have specific OEM guidance, share it and we'll follow it.
We don't remove or service static wicks — that's an A&P's job. We do note any bent or missing wicks during the walk-around so the pilot knows. We work around them carefully and never lean on a trailing edge where they're mounted.
Only with screen-safe microfiber and approved cleaner — distilled water, Plexus, or OEM-approved screen cleaner. We follow Garmin (G3000, G5000), Collins (Pro Line 21, Fusion), and Honeywell guidance.
A Citation CJ2 standard wash, polish, and interior runs 8-9 hours. A Phenom 300 with cabin leather and screen-safe care is 9-11 hours. A Learjet 35 or older with belly degrease and polish can run 10-12 hours.
Yes — PreBuy details are common. Extra-thorough exterior, full interior including lavatory, plated hardware polish, and a final inspection walk with the seller. Add $300-500 to the standard detail price for PreBuy-level work.
A standard exterior + interior on a Citation CJ2 starts at $1,500. A Phenom 300 with cabin leather and avionics is $1,800-2,200. PreBuy or heavily-worn aircraft can run $2,500-3,000. Quote after walk-around.
Same care, every job. We come to your Olmos Park driveway, dock, hangar, or storage site.
