The founder

More than detailing. It is a passion.

Edward started detailing cars at home when he was young, because he cared how they looked. WetWheels is what 35 years of that turned into.

He worked on cars on and off across those years, and the last 15 have gone into the professional side. That gap matters. Anyone can make a car shiny for an afternoon. Knowing why a coating lets go when the panel was not wiped down first takes time and somebody teaching you.

He has kept his education going with training from some of the better known names in the trade, Meguiar's, Mothers, P & S Detail Products and Koch-Chemie. Whatever comes out of it goes into the work.

You are not an appointment slot here. You are handing a car to somebody who takes it personally and who will tell you when the cheaper service is the right one for it.

Paint correction under specialized lighting at The L.A.B.
Correction under controlled lighting
The facility

Welcome to The L.A.B.

The Detailing Learning and Application Building. Built to hit a standard, not a garage with a hose in it.

Equipment

Professional grade tools

The tools and chemicals people use when this is their living, not what is on the shelf at the parts store. Product decides half the result.

Lighting

Specialized lighting

Precision lighting shows swirls, buffer trails and etching that daylight hides completely. You cannot correct what you cannot see.

Measurement

Paint inspection tech

Depth gets read before anything abrasive touches a panel, so correction stays inside what the clear coat can safely give up.

Approach

Built per car

Every car and every owner gets a recommendation built around what they want, not a package pushed on everybody.

The promise

High quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and an experience that makes every customer feel valued.

Bringing your vehicle back to life, one detail at a time.

About WetWheels

What people ask.

Who does the work?

Edward Williams. WetWheels is owner operated, so whoever quotes your car is the person who details it. No rotating crew, no handing the keys to whoever is free.

How long has he been detailing?

35 years hands on, the last 15 on the professional side. He has kept training with Meguiar's, Mothers, P & S Detail Products, Koch-Chemie.

What does L.A.B. stand for?

The Detailing Learning and Application Building. It is the WetWheels workspace, running specialized lighting and paint inspection technology that finds defects you cannot see with the naked eye.

Mobile, or do you have a shop?

Both. Every package on the price list travels to your house or your workplace across Clark County. Correction and coating work usually happens at The L.A.B. instead, because that work needs controlled lighting.
