Automobile Detailing

[KrnQuietGuy]

Hi, I don't have a Celica but seeing as how a lot of people on this board seem to be from the northern VA area, I was wondering if anyone can recommend any places to get your automobile professionally detailed, exterior and interior.

Do they remove scratches for you, too?

I live in Fairfax County and would like to find the best place nearest me! Thanks for all the help, even if I own a "crappy Korean car"!

Hey man, what's up and welcome. :)

I know a place near my work, in laurel that has been known to do a fantastic detailing job. I know a couple of folks that take their cars there all the time. They don't do scratches though.

I know it isn't much, but I guess it's something. :(


The '03s are the new body style right? If so, I love the way hey look now. Good choice! :thumbup: :D

Pro-Clean of Tysons Corner...right off Tyco Rd. 703-448-1001, the owner will take care of you, tell him the guy with the blue celica sent you....they are a little pricey on detailing but trust me, they do a hell of a job, to detail my celica inside/out was $125 (I think) last year. Call them.

BTW, Hyundai makes a Carbon Blue color too?

Hey man, you need to come to one of our meets, like maybe the 4/20 meet, so we can check out the new Tiburon.

If you guys have any dings or dents take your cars to http://www.dingdepot.com/ they have $20 off coupons on their web page and they do great work on Celicas. Their in Tyson

Guessing you have first hand experience? How much do they normally run? I have a couple of dings from the hail storm a while back, if it's not too expensive I might get them fixed.

I had my celica and avalon "stoned" about 1 1/2 years ago by a hail storm....insurance covered it w/no deductible if I went with Paintless Dent Removal (PDR), the total for the avalon came out to like $1500 and the celica was about $1800......PDR is NOT that cheap, its better to go to a place to do a bunch of dents together or take a couple of cars because they might give you a discount, but if you go for 1-2 dents, it can easily run you $150-200 per panel where the dent is.....just FYI from my experience.....but the time it takes to repair is done within the day....so it's much better than a body shop.

Hey, the guy across the street from me does autodetailing interior and exterior.

I also think Brian has gotten his dents remove, ask him where he got it done.

(BTW, I really like the new Tiburon, I'm quite impressed with Hyundai on that one).

I got mine detailed yesterday for free. Had a minor problem with the driver's side window. They fixed it and washed and vacuumed it out. They have to do that for all SVT vehicles. Pretty cool. :D

I think I'll take it in for a repair about once a month now. ;)

Two dings removed for $55, another shop wanted $120, it only took the guy 4 minutes.
