Mustafa and his team PPF'ed, Ceramic Coated and detailed my 1992 Toyota Supra, and the car now looks stunning. He kept me informed of the job progress, corrected areas that had been poorly done by others and the results could not have been better. He also detailed inside and out a family member's 2020 Toyota Tacoma, and again the vehicle turned out brilliantly. It is his attention to detail, absolute commitment to satisfying the customer that stands out. He is honest, never hesitates to answer questions and I cannot recommend him and his business higher. He is definitely an exceptional provider in his industry.

I got my rav 4 detailed here amazing work I’ve been coming here ever since I got it. I did my paint protection film here as well they did a complementary check on the ppf that was previously done and gave me a great deal on protecting my headlights. I would recommend this place to anyone who would like to get their car cleaned or protected.

Mo and his team transformed the interior of our extremely dusty and dirty back-roads work truck into brand new showroom quality. Their Ozone treatment removed all the built up smell of dirty/wet coveralls and chemicals. From booking the appointment to picking up the truck it was a short 48-hour turn around. 100% will be returning for repeat business.

I had my mom’s car detailed here in advance of listing it for sale. Booking online and knowing the full costs upfront were really helpful. The location near chinook is convenient. I was able to catch an Uber to get to a business luncheon nearby while I waited. As an added bonus they were able to repair rock chips so it’s like a one stop shop! If you want to wait while your car is in, there’s coffee and couches for you to hang Out on. I’ll recommend to friends and book other vehicles in the future.

Did an excellent job detailing my 4Runner. They managed to get all of the dog hair out of the carpet and all the crevices it accumulated over the summer/fall, which is amazing considering I have two massively shedding pugs. Will definitely use their services again.
Christine K.Google review · Nov 2023 · Toyota 4Runner
I absolutely love the job these guys do on my S5 Audi! They take a lot of pride in every vehicle they clean, workmanship is top notch! You won't be disappointed. The only car wash for me.
Heather D.Google review · Dec 2024 · Audi S5
Fabulous Service! Got the Gold Service and worth every penny. My car looks brand new and they cleaned areas I didn't think we ever be able to come clean! Make sure you feel the hood of your car after service, smooth as butter! Will be back in the future and highly recommend to all.

Nice clean shop, very friendly people, great job on my Boxster. Thanks.
Ian M.Google review · May 2024 · Porsche Boxster
I just got my truck interior detailed and i cannot believe how amazing it looks. I track in mud, salt, diesel, glue, stone dust and everything else you could imagine from a work site, and it was no problem for these guys. It looks as fresh and clean as when i first bought it. For reals a huge shout out to Mo, he is great to deal with. These guys are professional, thorough, very friendly and go above and beyond.
Micah C.Google review · Apr 2024 · Work truck
I LOVE how my car looks after having purchased the 'Interior Reset' package!!! I drive a 13 year old car, and honestly it looks like it just came off of the showroom floor. Great customer support, fast service, good value and clear attention to detail are just some of the reasons why I'll definitely be back in the future.

Calgary is rough on a car, inside and out

Salt-caked mats in winter, dust and bugs in summer, and grime that a drive-through wash moves around instead of removing.
  • Winter salt

    Brine dries white on the paint and gets ground into carpets and mats.

  • Bonded grime

    Brake dust and road film bond to the paint. A clay bar lifts what a wash leaves behind.

  • A tired cabin

    Spills, pet hair and dust build up where a vacuum can't reach. Shampoo and steam reset it.

  • Dull paint

    Fine swirls make paint look flat. The Signature Detail includes a single-stage correction.

How a detail works

Drop it off in the morning; most details are ready the same day.
  1. Book online

    Pick your package and your time. A deposit holds the spot.
  2. Safe wash

    Snow-foam pre-wash and a pH-neutral, two-bucket hand wash with grit guards.
  3. Decontaminate and protect

    From the Premium Detail up: clay bar to pull out bonded grime, then wax or a ceramic spray sealant to protect the finish.
  4. Interior and handover

    Vacuum, wipe-down and windows on every package; shampoo, leather care and more on the higher ones. Checked under the lights before you collect it.

Questions people ask us

Straight answers. If yours isn't here, ask it on the form and we'll answer with your quote.
What's the difference between a car wash and a detail?

A wash is a surface clean. A detail goes further: clay-bar decontamination to pull bonded grime out of the clear coat, deep interior cleaning and, on the higher packages, polishing and protection that lasts.

How long does a full detail take?

Budget 4 to 6 hours for a full interior and exterior on a sedan, 6 to 8 for an SUV or truck, and up to a full day for a badly neglected car or heavy pet hair. Drop it off in the morning and most people collect it after work.

Interior-only or a full detail?

Interior-only makes sense if the paint still looks good but the cabin has pet hair, spills or salt-caked mats. Go for a full detail if the paint feels rough, you can see swirls or water spots, or you are selling or returning a lease.

Will detailing hurt my ceramic coating, PPF or tint?

Not when it is done right. We use pH-neutral soap, non-abrasive microfibre and coating-safe sealants. Tell us at booking what is on your car and we steer clear of anything that could harm it.

How should I prep the car?

Clear personal things out of the cabin and trunk, take out child seats if you want under them cleaned, and tell us about pet hair or odours so we can book the right amount of time.

Do you come to me, or pick the car up?

No. We've retired our mobile service, and every job happens in our studio at 239 61 Ave SE. We don't offer pickup, delivery or a shuttle, so plan a ride for drop-off and collection. The studio is near Chinook.

Which areas do you serve?

Drivers come to our SE Calgary studio from every quadrant of Calgary, plus Airdrie, Cochrane, Okotoks and Chestermere.

How do I pay, and is there a deposit?

We accept Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Interac Debit and cash. Credit cards carry a 2.4% surcharge, and a deposit is taken on all bookings. We don't offer financing.
