What is paint correction

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.

The work that Dan and his team do is done with great detail and attention. They make sure that everything has been done with care and quality craftsmanship. They are not pushy on selling you things you don’t need, they listen to you and provide adequate recommendations. I would recommend going to Detail Tech before looking anywhere else. We have taken three cars there already! Everyone that works there is very kind and polite and cares about what they do. Thank you!

I had a great experience with Detail Tech! I brought my dad’s CTS-V in for an exterior detail and had two other vehicles tinted. The staff was professional, friendly, and easy to work with from start to finish. Kevin and Dan are extremely knowledgeable, offer very reasonable pricing, and clearly take pride in their work. Everything turned out fantastic. Highly recommend!

Outstanding quality work and good pricing. I drive an Audi that’s in great condition for its age but has some regular driving wear. They practically got rid of the scratches on my hood and cleaned the rear bumper up wonderfully. My interior looks better now than when I bought the car from the dealership. Overall I am very satisfied.

Kevin, Dan, and all of the guys at Detail Tech did a great job on both mine and my wife’s new vehicles. I got the 10 year ceramic coating on my 2026 Durango GT and had the front windows tinted to match the backs. I would recommend this business to anyone. Their work and professionalism is top notch, and their pricing is definitely fair. Great job guys!
