Midsize Jet Detailing.

Midsize and super-midsize jets are the workhorses of business aviation — Citation Latitude/Longitude, Hawker 800/850/900, Challenger 350/605, Gulfstream G150/G280, Embraer Praetor 500/600. They fly almost every day for charter operators, weekly for corporate fleets. The cabin sees real wear: leather develops sit-marks, carpet picks up wine and coffee stains, the lavatory smells if not maintained, and the galley shows fingerprint and food residue. The exterior collects high-altitude bug strikes, exhaust stains from PW305 or HTF7000 engines, and ramp grime from FBOs around the country (and sometimes the world). When the aircraft comes home for an annual or pre-charter prep, owners want it restored to a level that justifies the $3,000-5,000 hourly charter rate. We deliver that.

Midsize jets often pick up paint damage at foreign FBOs where ramp staff have used the wrong products. Acrylic windshields wiped with standard glass cleaner show light crazing on multiple aircraft we've seen — we can polish out light crazing but not deep. Cabin leather on corporate jets is high-grade hide that needs proper conditioning, not just wiping. Lavatories smell because the holding tank gets ignored — we coordinate pump-out and treatment. Galleys with espresso machines, microwaves, and ovens accumulate residue. Every surface needs the right product. We also work around mission timing — a charter aircraft typically needs the detail done overnight so it's ready for the next morning's departure.

Texas reality check. Corporate midsize jets at SAT, Stinson, and Houston Hobby are a regular fixture. South Texas charter operators fly to Mexico, the Caribbean, and Eastern US. Aircraft pick up bug strikes flying out of Mexico City, exhaust stains over long missions, and cabin wear from constant passenger turnover. Aspen and Telluride trips for owner-flown aircraft are also common — heavy mountain bug strikes and high-altitude residue on the belly.
