Tri-Lakes Essentials Package
— The Shad —
Here in Northeast Texas, we know there are certain essentials you just don’t skip when you’re gearing up for a trip into the great outdoors — the things you rely on to make the trip a success.
“The Shad” is built in that same spirit. It’s the Tri‑Lakes Essentials Package: a foundational, no‑shortcuts service designed to keep your vehicle looking sharp and protected from the sun, dust, and everyday wear of our region.
A step above “ The Shiner”, but not still not a full detail — it’s the essential care every well‑maintained vehicle needs, delivered with the same steady, preservation‑minded workmanship I put into every service I provide. Ceramic protection, UV defense, and honest, hands‑on cleaning come together to give your vehicle the modern essentials it deserves.
NOTE: This package is intended as a regular upkeep service for well-maintained vehicles.
For deeper, more thorough cleaning, please choose one of our detail packages.
