    Heavy jets detailing in The Dominion.

    Multi-day aviation-grade detailing for Dassault Falcon, Gulfstream G450-G650, Bombardier Global — long-range and intercontinental business jets.

    The Dominion-based heavy 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.

    Why The Dominion

    Built for The Dominion owners.

    The Dominion is one of San Antonio's premier gated communities. Members keep their toys close — wakesurf boats in their three-car garages, Class A diesel pushers in covered storage at the resort, and corporate jets a short drive away at SAT. We work the Dominion every week.

    Owner profile. Gated luxury community on San Antonio's far north side. Wealthy owners with multi-vehicle garages — premium wakesurf boats, luxury Class A motorhomes, and corporate jets and helicopters based at nearby hangars.

    Heavy and long-range jets — Falcon 7X/8X, Gulfstream G450/G500/G550/G650, Bombardier Global 5000/6000/7500 — are the pinnacle of business aviation. They fly intercontinental missions: Texas to London, Tokyo, Buenos Aires, Cape Town. The aircraft come home with bug strikes from cruise above FL400, belly stains from PW308 or BR710 engines, and cabin wear that reflects 14 hours of premium passengers using every amenity in the suite. A heavy jet detail isn't a single-day job — it's a 2-3 day multi-tech operation where the aircraft is staged in a hangar, cabin furnishings are removed for deep cleaning, leather is conditioned panel by panel, and the exterior is restored with extreme care around static wicks, antennas, and composite control surfaces. We treat it as a project, not a job.

    The Dominion questions

    What owners always ask.

    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.

    A standard exterior + interior on a Gulfstream G550 or Falcon 7X is 2 days. Heavy-mission aircraft with full paint correction, cabin leather restoration, and multiple lavatories run 2.5 to 3 days. We schedule the hangar window in advance and coordinate with the flight department.

    Yes — we plan around mission turnover, maintenance windows, and FBO hangar availability. We've done overnight starts to deliver an aircraft ready for a 6 AM departure. We've also done full 3-day stagings during scheduled downtime.

    No — we hand-shampoo Wilton-weave with wool-safe cleaner. Standard wet extractor units are not used on premium hand-knotted carpet. We follow the carpet manufacturer's care guide whenever available.

    Light crazing — yes, with a multi-step plexi polish (Novus, MicroMesh, then Plexus seal). Deep crazing or pitting from years of improper cleaning is irreversible and requires windshield replacement. We assess first.

    Yes — wrong-product damage from foreign FBO washes is a regular request. We do paint correction passes with appropriate chemistry and pads. Severe damage may need a paint shop, but most ramp scuffing we can correct in-place.

    Yes — we work with leather restoration specialists for re-dye work, carpet replacement coordinators for full-carpet swaps, and wood veneer refinishing specialists. We handle the detailing scope; we coordinate the specialty work.

    Standard exterior + interior on a Gulfstream G450 or Falcon 7X starts at $5,000. Full restoration with paint correction, cabin leather, multiple lavatories, and galley on a G650 or Global 6000 runs $7,000-9,000. PreBuy detailing or aircraft with heavy damage can run $10,000+.
