Is this course right for you?
If you care about your own car
You maintain your own vehicle and want to do it correctly. You've watched videos, read forums, and still aren't fully confident. This course gives you the structured foundation that self-research never quite delivers — the why behind every step, not just the how.
- Stop second-guessing every product purchase
- Build a safe, documented wash and maintenance system
- Know when a job needs a professional and when you can do it yourself
If you want to detailing as a profession
You want to take on clients or already do. The gap is the documented knowledge — knowing why the process works and being able to explain it to clients. This course gives you the curriculum structure to move from doing it by feel to doing it professionally.
- Close the knowledge gap between hobbyist and professional
- Earn a verifiable certificate to show clients
- Learn from a working studio, not a product manufacturer

Marco Ferretti
Lead Detailer & Academy Instructor
Marco Ferretti founded freshcardetail in Dalmine to close the gap between Italian detailing practice and accessible professional education. Every course in the Academy is built from the same methods used on client vehicles at the Dalmine studio — not from product manufacturer guides or theoretical frameworks.

Specialisms:
- Paint correction (DA and rotary)
