Artisan n1
So clean you'll want to keep it in a box.

Meet The Artisan Nº1, the debut product of the Signature Series, born from the KAR Motors x Hallmark Detailing collaboration. This is not just detailing. This is philosophy, distilled.


The art of detail

Every showroom detailing pack of The Artisan Nº1 is the result of a shared vision: to create a detailing experience that meets the expectations of collectors, perfectionists, and those who see cars as more than machines. Hallmark Detailing brought the expertise. KAR Motors brought the vision. Together, they’ve created a ritual, not a routine.


From the initial foam cascade to the final swipe of a microfiber glove, The Artisan Nº1 brings depth, clarity, and protection to every surface. Whether you’re prepping for a show, a drive down Sheikh Zayed, or a moment alone in the garage, this product transforms maintenance into meditation.


What makes it Signature?

- Multi-stage performance for both interior and exterior detailing

- Advanced paint correction agents for swirl and scratch removal

- Leather-safe, stain-resistant interior formula

- Engine bay and wheel treatments included.

- Precision-tested in Hallmark’s studio with KAR’s most exclusive client vehicles



A partnership born from precision

The story behind The Artisan Nº1 isn’t just about what's in the bottle, it’s about how it came to life. From early test batches and scent selection to packaging and performance testing, every stage was a handshake between Hallmark’s obsession with perfection and KAR Motors’ commitment to luxury.
