The Aston Martin Valkyrie was delivered to a detailing studio by a team of experts from the luxury car manufacturer. The Valkyrie, valued at $4 million, requires meticulous care to maintain its high-performance capabilities and sleek design.
To begin, the detailing expert applied a full detailing treatment, paint correction, and protective film (PPF) to shield the car’s surface from damage. However, with features like forbidden buttons on the dashboard, pushing any of them could result in costly repairs.
As the detailer carefully worked on the Valkyrie, they were acutely aware of the potential risks, considering the $220,000 price tag associated with one misstep. The owner had entrusted the car’s care to someone with extensive experience and knowledge of its complex systems.
The detailing process involved multiple steps, including polishing the exterior and applying additional layers of PPF to ensure a durable finish. A special windshield wiper made from carbon fiber was also fitted to protect the car’s windscreen.
A key aspect of detailing the Valkyrie was ensuring the interior remained pristine, as its buttons are highly sensitive and require careful handling. The detailer followed strict guidelines to avoid any damage, taking extra precautions by removing their shoes before entering the cabin.
The results of this elaborate detailing process will be on full display when the Valkyrie takes to the track next week, where it will undergo further testing and validation in a controlled environment.
