Ceramic Coating is an ultra-hard, hydrophobic, and protective invisible coating that bonds to your car's surface. It lasts much longer than wax and is even more effective at acting as a protective barrier while also enhancing SHINE. HIGHLY recommended if you have a new or like-new car, ceramic coating buys you extra time and protection when your car inevitably gets targeted by birds, trees, bugs, and grime -- even acid rain! Depending on where you park your car (garage/street), and how and where you drive, ceramic coating can last 12-18 months.

While we can't always predict or guarantee if a stain will disappear completely, we will always scrub and re-shampoo twice to try to fix your car problem. Starting at $35. Hazmat/biological pet/people stains will be priced starting at $70 per our policy.

Again, life happens....to your paint and bumpers too! That's life in the DMV. Parking lot mishaps, garage pillars, oops! moments, we get it. We can perform buffing and polishing to try and resolve your paint's blemishes while-you-wait. We can't guarantee a given scratch will disappear completely, but always provide an estimate of a percentage improvement in the appearance. Starts at $35 for the smallest spots....for multiple spots it may make sense to do a a whole-body Stage 1 Buff service.

Ozonators charge the air with powerful ions that can infiltrate your car's vents and unreachable areas. Can work wonders on stale-smelling vents, lingering smoke odors, or other undesired mystery scents. Does not always completely remove lingering carpet / pet odors, but often makes a big improvement.
