The facility is top notch, but the pricing needs to be WAY higher to keep the doors open in this place.

they do a great job. the price is a little high for what people in the area would pay. i know a few staff members and the owners, very very nice people.

one advice, don't let them condition your leather, i swear they take armor all to it

That's funny you say that. They slathered everything in my car! I was like driving a condom home!

I will have a talk with the owners that I have known for years. There are areas that need tweeking.

That was hilarious

I saw their work on a black car, and i was very impressed with the paint. I just think that a whole shop dedicated to detailing is a little extreme. they already have the wash across the street, why not just add on to that? And they have bumper2bumper as competition, but I'm not impressed at all with their work.

Some people(top 1%) are looking for a facility like this because in my industry low quality is the norm not the exception, and when you have a highline car letting just "anyone" loose on it can cost BIG! as I fix damage almost on every car I work on from the dealerships to car washes.

I'm not saying let anyone work on Your car. I just think they went a little to extreme with this shop. Besides there are mobile detailers that due some amazing work. Some of which are on this forum. I think they should have set up shop in an industrial park, for lower rent and build cost.

The chances of them being very successful are slim. Everyday I drive by, I rarely see a car. I hope they make it, the owners are great. people and they deserve it.

This place is down the street from my house... I assumed it was just an offshoot of the 76 across the street because of their lack of Detail space. Looks nice though - but I assumed the work would not be up to par with some mobile, or smaller detail shops and would cost twice as much. My Car needs a detail badly.
