What the San Fernando Valley Does to an Aircraft
Van Nuys aircraft don't battle salt air the way coastal aircraft do. They deal with sun, dust, heat and heavy use instead. Here's how each one shows up and how we handle it.
Strong sun and summer heat
What it doesFades and oxidizes paint, dries out leather and bakes grime onto the surface.
How we handle itPolishing restores faded paint, a ceramic coating adds UV protection, and leather is cleaned and conditioned.
Dust and dry wind
What it doesSettles in seams, on glass and across the paint, where wiping it off dry can leave fine scratches.
How we handle itWaterless products lift the dust in a lubricated layer before plush microfiber removes it.
Jet exhaust and ramp traffic
What it doesLeaves soot on the tail and fuselage and grime along the belly and gear.
How we handle itTargeted degreasing clears exhaust residue, and a coated surface releases it more easily next time.
Frequent flying
What it doesWears down cabins faster: smudged surfaces, scuffed carpet and tired upholstery.
How we handle itRecurring interior details and carpet shampoo keep the cabin ready for the next passengers.
Detailing Built for Charter Operators and Flight Departments
At an airport this busy, an aircraft on the ground is an aircraft not earning. We fit our work into your schedule, not the other way around, and keep every aircraft in your fleet to the same standard.
Private owners get the same care, with the same attention to detail.
- Scheduled around your tripsWe plan each visit around your flight schedule, including early mornings and the time between trips.
- Photo condition reportsBefore-and-after photos after every visit, with anything your maintenance team should review flagged.
- One standard across the fleetEvery tail gets the same checklist, so passengers notice no difference from one aircraft to the next.
- Easy access coordinationTell us where the aircraft is parked, and we'll coordinate access with you and your FBO or hangar.
Private Jet and Aircraft Detailing Services at Van Nuys
Every service is performed on-site at VNY with aviation-safe products. No repositioning flight, no tow across the field.
Aircraft Ceramic Coating
A System X ceramic coating shields paint from the Valley's intense sun and makes exhaust soot and dust easier to wash away.
Aircraft Polishing & Wax
Machine polishing removes sun-faded oxidation and swirl marks, and wax brings back a deep, even gloss.
Aircraft Interior Detailing
We reset the cabin, galley and lavatory, condition leather and sanitize every high-touch surface, so passengers board a cabin that looks cared for.
Aircraft Carpet Shampoo
Busy cabins collect spills and foot traffic quickly. Deep extraction lifts stains and odors from aisle carpet and runners.
Aircraft Dry Wash & Degrease
Waterless cleaning removes dust, exhaust residue and belly grime without hoses or runoff, right where the aircraft is parked.
Pneumatic De-Ice Boot Treatment
Dry Valley heat is hard on rubber. Regular cleaning and conditioning help de-ice boots stay supple instead of cracking.
The Salt-Air Shield for Aircraft Based at Van Nuys
The plan was built for the coast, but it protects just as well against Valley sun, dust and jet exhaust. We apply an aircraft ceramic coating once, then keep your aircraft clean on a consistent schedule for 12 months.
Pricing is tailored to aircraft size. Text your tail number to (714) 886-9514 for a personalized quote.
