Is detailing the same as valeting?

No, it is very different. Some of the Detailers processes are similar in part but are far different in terms of the level of attention paid to detail, the tools and equipment used. Valeters provide a service to car owners and will clean the car so that all visible grime is removed from most of its areas. Visibly clean is where valeting ends and detailing takes over.
