Why detail your car

More than a car wash.

A drive-through wash moves dirt around. A real detail removes it. We use safe hand-wash methods, steam, and decontamination to lift what builds up over time, from embedded brake dust on the outside to bacteria and odors on the inside. The result is a vehicle that looks, feels, and smells like new, and paint that stays healthier longer.

  • Safe 3-bucket hand wash that avoids swirls and scratches
  • Steam cleaning that sanitizes and lifts deep-set dirt
  • Iron and clay decontamination for truly clean paint
  • Interior odor, stain, and pet-hair removal

I have had three of our cars in to Detail Tech for various detailing jobs and I have always come away impressed! These guys are great at applying protective vinyl, top notch at detailing paint and bright work, and are always consistent. I've enjoyed the relationship I've had with them over these past few months and our cars never looked better! I would highly recommend Detail Tech based on the quality of materials they use, their skills, and their consistency.

Got my Subaru wrapped by Detail Tech and I couldn't be happier with the results. Car looks great. Both Kevin and Dan were a major help with choosing the color and brand of vinyl. Service was fast and reasonably priced. I definitely recommend Detail Tech for vinyl wrapping and detailing.

Kevin patiently, thoroughly, and clearly reviewed the protection options for our new vehicle in a no pressure manner. We opted for full vehicle application of PPF followed by ceramic coating and an interior protection application. Our specific requests, including a delayed pick up, were accommodated. When we picked up the vehicle yesterday, it looked amazing! We are extremely happy with our decision and definitely feel it was money well spent. Additionally, it was nice to deal with a business that kept us updated, followed through on everything they said, and we didn't need to have anything redone.
