I purchased the Full Detail. Worth every penny. Exceptional service. I've gotten what's supposed to be the same "Full Detail" elsewhere in the past and it was less than noteworthy. I highly recommend The Detail Shop!

Wow. Just incredible work and at an affordable price. Can’t beat it! Very easy to work with and the results speak for themselves. Had a one stage paint correction and 3 year ceramic coating done to a 30 year old BMW with original paint and it’s been brought back to life better than I could have imagined. Thanks again, Mike!

I have to tell you how pleased I am with the sthe ceramic coating that they did on my 2022 ram 4 by 4. My truck has never looked so good and I love love the new shiny lock. These guys are incredible and I would strongly recommend if you're looking to have any type of detailed work done to your car or truck look look no further you found the place.
