Benefits to getting your car hand washed

The benefits of getting a car hand washed are numerous. It will not only make your car look better, but also make it last longer.

It is a fact that your car will get dirty over time. This is because it spends a lot of time on the road and in different environments. One of the best ways to keep your car looking new is by getting it hand washed.

Car detail hand car wash is one of the best ways to get your car clean and shiny. It will remove all the dirt and grime that has accumulated over time, leaving you with a nice, clean ride.

Hand washing a car is an art that some people have perfected. They can get into all the nooks and crannies and give the paint a deep shine. But the process of hand washing a car can be time-consuming and difficult if you don’t know what you’re doing.

Recent Ceramic Pro Sport Applications – Boulder Auto Detail

As time goes by we are doing more and more Ceramic Pro jobs in our shop and less normal detailing. We have a saying in our shop. “Wax is dead.”

For just $90 you can upgrade our bumper to bumper or exterior only detail packages to Ceramic Pro Sport. This replaces the wax part. The Ceramic Pro Sport product is not as durable or even on the same level of a Ceramic Pro Gold or Silver packages that we offer, however, it is literally 4 times better than wax! In terms of gloss, how long it lasts, the ease of washing bugs of your bumper after a road trip, etc. It will give you an introduction the ceramic coating world and you will get addicted to it.

Here are some photos of recent Ceramic Pro Sport jobs at our shop.

Ceramic Pro for your Boat in Colorado. Bravo and Marine Applications

It’s usually all about cars with our blog posts! But today I wanted to show off some boats we have recently done. One is a 2019 Maiibu LSV25. And the other here is Nautique G21. So why get a boat coated with Ceramic? The first and main reason is ease of maintenance, not to mention the protection. So easy to simply spray with water, when available, and then wipe your boat down with microfiber cloths. And that’s not just on the outside. The interior is coated as well! Then of course there is appearance. You are going to have the shiniest boat on the lake.

So the two packages available are the BRAVO which includes two coats of the Ceramic Pro BRAVO product on the exterior of the boat, above the water line, and one coat in the interior. Then there is the Ceramic Pro MARINE package. Which is much more technical to install and includes below the water line. This one is much more expensive, and to be honest, not really necessary here in Colorado with fresh water lakes, unless you want the additional protection.

Here at Boulder Auto Detail we can apply the coatings on your boat in our garage, if it will fit! Or, more popular send a mobile crew out to your location.

Anyway here are some photos from our boat installs last month…

Here is a short video of what is going on in our shop. From normal bumper to bumper details to Ceramic Pro Gold packages.

Work behind a Ceramic Pro Ceramic Coating… What is Paint Correction?

Below are a couple of pics of a paint correction in progress. Paint correction means the “polish” or “compounding” that is needed remove old swirl marks, holograms, spider-webbing or marring, and other defects off of a vehicle’s paint. The paint needs to be flawless before applying the Ceramic Coatings.

Why? A Ceramic Package is not a wax or a sealant. It is a Permanent Coating. One needs to get rid of any flaws in the paint so they are not permanently sealed in! Only certain polishes or compounds can be used that don’t contain fillers. Fillers contain silicates and are used by many shops use to hide swirls and holograms… In this case that car will look good only until these fillers brake down – typically in a few months and then all the swirls and defects come back. If this is done before a Ceramic coating it will not adhere correctly and also the coating will not last very long. This is not how we do things at Boulder Auto Detail. We do not use compounds with fillers during out paint corrections.

Anyone can grab a buffer and try to buff a car out… But to be good, really good, at paint correction it takes years and years of experience. At our shop we are constantly correcting mistakes either from other details shops or from new car dealers that have 16 year old kids working in their detail section with little to no training. All of our Ceramic Pro Certified techs have the proper experience and training.

Anyway to the fun part. Here are some photos of work in progress at our shop 🙂

Ceramic Coating Pro Gold package Porsche 911 Turbo S and Porsche Macan

Great short video here of a couple of Porsche’s we just finished coating. Ceramic Gold package on a Porsche 911 Turbo S and a Ceramic Pro Silver Package on a Porsche Macan. This was shot in 4k so you can really see the depth of shine or gloss on both vehicles.

Both cars required a full paint correction first. As the Ceramic Pro Coating is permanent we don’t want to seal in any imperfections that could have been correction through a multistage polish. This “polish” takes a lot of skill to do it properly and often takes 8 to 12 hours of labour.

Coating w/o a paint correction first, or an inferior correction that leave swirls, holgrams, spider-webbing is not what Boulder Auto Detail is about!

I brought my new SUV for a full auto detailing. Reggie is very professional and courteous from my 1st call to completion. If you want to keep the new car smell and look, for a very reasonable price, I highly recommend taking it to Boulder Auto Detail.

Have taken my car to them twice for different odor issues. They were friendly, quick, accommodating, and very fair on pricing. Most importantly their cleaning was effective in getting rid of the very difficult to manage odors (smoke and fish!).

Oscar did a fantastic job to clean up my 2001 4Runner, which had been sitting dormant in my garage for over 8 yrs. Would highly recommend 'Boulder Auto Detail".

I just recently bought my car, and needed it to be thoroughly cleaned from the previous owner. This place mostly did a good job, however they missed a huge spot in between the driver seat and center console. There's still food crumbs and old candy stuck in between there. There were also still some crumbs in the nooks and crannies of the gear shift. I wish I would have caught this before leaving. I could have taken my car to a closer auto detailing service, but I specifically chose this place because of how good the reviews are and how they describe their service on the website. They mention that they clean in between the seats on their website and that they only detail a small amount of cars so that none are rushed. My car wasn't even that dirty, so it must have been rushed. I hate leaving negative comments about a small business, but the service is expensive for what I got. I spent $240 not including tip, so I'm annoyed that they barely got all of the nooks and crannies they claim to get on their website. Overall, I think the service is ok, but from my experience a bit overrated based on reviews. I like that they don't try and sell extra services to you and contact you far in advance so you have enough time to get your car. But, if you're like me and have high expectations because of their service description and reviews, just be sure to fully inspect your car before leaving and tipping.

Awesome staff. Did a ceramic pro coating on my new Subaru Outback. Well worth it! Dirt and snow glides right off and washing the car with just water and less often has some me money.

What an amazing job done! Cannot say enough good things about the transformation Reggie made to our truck!! We thought it would come back clean but it came back looking fantastic. Will be going back anytime I need a proper clean up. Thanks

Took my Tesla here for paint protection film on the front bumper/headlights as well as the gold package ceramic coating. I called a few different shops in Boulder before deciding on Boulder Auto Detail. Reggie was very friendly and thorough from my first call all the way until the job was done. I recommend this shop to others looking for the same service.

Reggie did a great job on my truck! I bought a truck that had a heavy smoke smell and his team took the smell away. They also offered to run the ozone treatment for the little smoke smell that was left over when you turn the ac on. Great service!! Will be taking my truck here for my details in the future.

Was hesitant to spend this much money for the “Gold Package “ however when I went to the shop and looked at the other vehicles that were done I was sold. My 8 yr old Benz SUV 🚙 LOOKS AWESOME! It is as good as when it was brand new. The attention to detail and the 3 days it took were all well worth it. I highly recommend this Ceramic process

Wonderful experience with Boulder Auto Detail. We were blown away with the outcome of our vehicle after auto detailing. Kids, dog and countless road trips - Boulder Auto Detail made it look brand new.

Thomas Randell

21:26 11 Jun 21

I didn’t think to ask but was charged a reduced rate because my car was less dirty. Got rid of *all* the previous owner’s dog hair, even under the seats in hard to reach places. Much better job than the dealer provided!

Alisha Jost

17:22 01 Jun 21

WOW! I didn’t know my car could look this good! The interior is perfectly cleaned and they even washed and waxed the exterior of my car eliminating some of the smaller dings and scratches (this is huge since my Mercedes is black and easily shows imperfections). The staff was friendly and efficient. Five stars all around!

Jacob Son

23:28 20 Mar 21

The service was excellent. Reggie was fantastic, and did an amazing job on my car. It has never looked better even when it was brand new! The professionalism and service was excellent. Pricing is very reasonable for the quality of work. Highly recommend!

Just picked up my 19 yr old truck that lives outside. It practically looks new. I am astounded by the quality of work that Reggie and his crew did. This is the best detail I have ever gotten in Boulder. Money really well spent. Thanks guys.

Could not believe how my truck looked when I picked it up. Landscaping truck looked better than new!! No joke. Amazing job. Got my other car done the next available appointment (preparing to sell). Highly recommended. The owner Geremy is amazing. Quick to return calls.

I was living high in the Rockies and had to drive 7 miles just to get to a paved road. As you can imagine, my car was really dirty inside and out. Boulder Auto Detail did a magnificent job in getting the car to look like it was new. I enjoyed the people I came into contact with - they were friendly and helpful. I will definitely use their services again.

K Devine

17:49 11 Jan 21

I have a fleet of landscape work trucks that were extremely dirty and needed professional detail. It was easy to schedule, drop off and pick up. The quality was exceptional with the trucks looking and smelling very close to new after. The price was reasonable for the amount of work needed. The work time frame was fast. The crew and manager were professional and good to work with. I highly recommend their services. It is a very good value.

The team at Boulder Auto Detail is simply incredible. They are thoughtful with providing estimates, very timely in completing their work and this was, without doubt, the most thorough auto detailing I’ve ever had. We live on a gravel road and, after a year without attention, there was dirt in every possible crevice imaginable. The team didn’t leave a spec... I’m still looking :)

I have now gone to Boulder Auto Detail a few times, with both our cars and I can truly say this team knows customer service, along with high quality detailing. They always seem to go above and beyond and really ensure their work is as incredible as their customer service. I just had the ceramic coating added to a new car and am so pleased with the results. It doesn’t seem to matter who you work with over there, they all are outstanding.

I did the full auto detailing package for my Ford Explorer. I wasn't sure on the price (was it too high, I asked myself)... However, the reviews were all positive and I decided it was worth it to take the chance. WOW! That is the best way that I can describe the work they did. My car was dirty. Stuff under the seats, etc. When I got the car back, everything was clean (including the engine AND they managed to get all of those "extra" French Fries that were under the kids' seats). I wish I had a before pic (who takes pics of a dirty car)? It was way more than just surface dirt. The carpets look new! The seats look new! The whole car shines and has only been this clean when we bought it new. Great group of folks! Worth EVERY penny (including the ones they found under my seat)!

I cannot recommend Boulder Auto Detail highly enough. Their thoroughness and attention to detail are unparalleled...my vehicle is absolutely flawless. Furthermore, the customer service provided by Geremey and his team was equally impressive. Boulder Auto Detail has earned my business for the foreseeable future.

01:06 09 Jun 20

I loved working with these guys! Marcus did the work on my car and I was absolutely shocked at how good it looked. I had a full interior detail done. They are professional and do exactly what they say will they will do. They even sent me pictures once it was ready so I could check it out! Highly recommend, 10/10. Thanks guys!

Christopher Irish

21:05 30 May 20

Very detailed work and their customer service was excellent. I highly recommend their services from interior to exterior waxing. I was amazed how the waxing brought back the pearl coat. VERY HAPPY!

Sarah Alberts

00:32 22 May 20

I highly recommend this auto detail shop! Mike, Geremey, and his team were amazing and so professional. I bought a used car and they made it look brand new again from the inside out. I’ve had my car detailed at many places before but they’re the best by far. I’ll definitely be going back here for anything I need!

Cameron Brooks

23:20 14 May 20

I had an unfortunate situation of my car getting messed up- turn into a blessing for discovering this detail shop!! Jeremy and his team were professional, friendly, and detail oriented. My car looks like new! Thanks guys! I will be back and will pass your name on!

Mike Farmer

17:58 09 May 20

Geremey and his team (shout out to Ronald and Marcus) did an outstanding job on my 4Runner. I have the Limited Nightshade version in white and the ceramic coating makes the white really pop! The black accents now are mirror like in their shine. I received updates and pictures on how my work was progressing and they delivered even earlier than promised. They took time to walk me through the process and help me understand exactly what I was getting.If you want a professional finish done by real pros.....look no further than Geremey and his team.

Steve Lawing

13:35 02 May 20

Jeremy and the team at Boulder Auto Detail did an outstanding job putting Ceramic Pro Gold on my car. It took more than the usual amount of work since my car is 4 years old. They took their time and did it right. The result is stunning. Thank you Boulder Auto Detail.

18:08 30 Apr 20

Finished the detail in one day. Car looks amazing they did a great job. Support local business! Highly recommend.

Zach Pierce

20:31 29 Apr 20

Amazing customer service and even better product! These guys are awesome, if you want your car detailed interior or exterior bring it here! My truck is 11 years old and I am beyond impressed with what they were able to do with scratches and scuffs, looks like a brand new vehicle!

Geremey Gibson

01:56 31 Mar 20

The people at Boulder Auto Detail were very respectful from the first phone call to the time I picked up my car. They brought my 2006 Ford back to life. The time and attention to DETAIL was impressive. I will recommend them to my friends and family and will be bringing my other vehicles in to get detailed. Thanks again!!!!

22:12 08 Nov 19

Such an awesome place. Super friendly, and super skilled, they know the quirks of different cars to be sure they can do a great thorough job without hurting your finishes. My car hasn't looked this good since I bought it!

Grant Beverage

21:17 21 Sep 19

Boulder Auto Detail made my 10 year old truck look brand new inside and out. Amazing work. Everyone was friendly, prompt and they communicated throughout the process. Worth every penny!

Greg Temple

01:05 13 Sep 19

Mike and Dom did an absolutely amazing job on my 8 year-old Audi. The ceramic finish actually makes the car look BETTER than the when I bought. My total experience could not have been better as Mike gave me a lift over to rent a car. He also gave me updates as he and Dom found and fixed - not to charge extra, but just that they are such professionals. I can’t recommend these guys highly enough.

Bill Shepard

13:37 26 Aug 19

These guys know how to take care of a customer. Service was great. I had a changing schedule and they were happy to accomodate. My 16 year old Volvo looks (and smells) better than it has since new!

Mandy Lennartz

00:02 14 Aug 19

They did a great job protecting my new car! It looks fantastic and really educated me on how to take care of the ceramic finish, inside and out. I feel so good that my car is protected. Fantastic to work with, communicated and kept me up to date. Highly, highly recommend, definitely coming back for everything detail.

I have a wrap on my car which I wanted to do my best to preserve and protect a little bit longer with this harsh weather in Colorado. I found Mike and his crew and was thrilled to death with the results of the Ceramic Pro job they did for me. They also fixed my headlights which were so badly oxidized they were barely providing me light at night. The headlights now look BRAND NEW!! I soooooo wish I would have taken a before and after picture because it was incredible the difference they made. Communication was great as well as their attention to detail. I would highly recommend these guys as well as the product they used. It's been a few weeks since I got the treatment done and my car is brilliantly clean still. Yay Boulder Auto Detail!!

Larry Kinney

16:25 21 Jun 19

I’ve never had any “detail” work on a car in my 78 years and countless cars, but I’m a convert now. My wife’s Suzuki had headlights that barely illuminated the road because of badly scratched up lenses. Our regular car repair shop quoted $200 and Boulder Auto Detail $100. Further, owner Mike Smith walked me through the three-hour process in impressive detail. Everyone in the shop was friendly and helpful and the job was extraordinarily well done. It includes a two-year guarantee because the ceramic coating they apply after the polishing processes is hard, clear, and has a long life. I’m delighted and my wife can see the road at night!

20:09 09 Jun 19

I had recently bought a 2018 Camaro SS and later discovered that there was hard water spots on the rear of the car that I could not remove. I brought it in to Mike and his team for an exterior detail and let me tell you, they did an incredible job! I added on the Ceramic Pro Sport and the car looks a 100x better than when I got it from the dealership! Mike is super friendly and his team does amazing work. If you're looking for a top notch detail shop, this is the place.

Tim Romano

19:01 17 May 19

Mike and crew were overly helpful in dealing with drop-off and pick-up times. Super friendly, very customer service oriented and did an AMAZING job on my 4 year old Tacoma. I would totally recommend them to anyone in town.

Matthew McLachlan

17:50 16 May 19

Absolutely the best money I’ve spent in awhile. Mike and Ronnie did an excellent job on my AMG and I drove away feeling like I had a new car. I only wish I had taken a before and after picture. They went above and beyond and I’ve already recommended them to 5 people in the last 24 hours.

Malhar Shah

16:44 16 May 19

Wonderful service and super nice hospitality. The owner is so good, he did offer me a ride back to home (near by). I went for the silver package with 2-stage paint correction. When I went to pick up my car, the car looks so brand new, shinny and I could not take my eyes off. The photo speaks for itself. I would definitely recommended to go with the services, you won't regret it.

John Moore

23:03 14 May 19

Incredible Job! Mike and his team will make your car look like new. Expensive but worth it.

Ari Sonnenberg

22:53 18 Apr 19

Brought in my WRX to get an interior detail. They went above and beyond and even fixed an exterior scratch and cleaned all four of my exhaust pipes! Couldn’t recommend more. They will do only the best of jobs. I’ll be back in six months!

Lamont Smith

16:00 16 Apr 19

We went to Boulder Auto Detail to get the Ceramic pro + a clear bra (just front bumper) put on our Tesla. We live in the mountains so our car had some damage already on the paint. Ed worked overtime and went above and beyond, the car looked flawless and even better than it looked when it was brand new. Definitely would request him again! The owner, Mike, is extremely accommodating and helpful. I would recommend this place to everyone!

John Kingdon

Things you look for in a detail shop: An owner who knows their stuff An owner who’s passionate about their work An owner who is a perfectionist Well, Boulder Auto Detail’s Mike has all 3 characteristics! And it really shows in their work! I recently bought a black car and had no idea that normal washing could damage the paint that badly. Never again will I use a car wash with any kind of brushes. I started researching detail companies and came across Boulder Auto Detail. I went by and talked with Mike. He showed me around the shop and while I was there, they were working on 3 Tesla’s, a Range Rover, and a $120,000 Mercedes E63 AMG Wagon. Ok, if that owner trusts their car to Mike, I can with my black Subaru. I opted for the Ceramic Pro Sport exterior detail. Mike and his team went above and beyond with their work and the car looks spectacular! And I know I’ll be back to do the full CeramicPro package as Mike demoed it to me and I was instantly sold. Want to protect your investment? Want your car to look like new again or stay like new? You won’t go wrong with Boulder Auto Detail, period.

I brought a 2nd vehicle to Boulder Auto Detail and I remain impressed -- most recently, a SUV for Ceramic Pro Sport application and am very happy I did so. No more wax -- no benefits to wax when you can have Ceramic Pro products. The Ceramic Pro Sport package was perfect for my vehicle and the depth of shine is simply fantastic! Boulder Auto Detail has done it again, way to go! Highly recommended this business and Ceramic Pro Sport.

Had a headlight restoration done at Boulder Auto Detail. I am so glad I did. Mike did an excellent job. My headlights look brand new and I couldn't be happier. My vehicle is safer and I can see at night now. If you want a perfectionist to work in your vehicle, this is where you should take it.

21:01 14 Jan 19

Very through, and professional. They take pride in their job and treat your car like their own car. I would gladly recommend them and will definitely use their services again and again.

22:47 10 Jan 19

Boulder Auto Detail provided excellence in all areas for my recent Ceramic Pro application/installation. Mike and the team are experts in auto detailing and took the time to educate and provide information to me for my recent Ceramic Pro service. At all times I experienced a clean and welcoming shop, along with great communication (email, phone and text) with the team -- they are knowledgeable and took the time assess my vehicle to understand its condition and then additional time to talk about the options and services that were available to me. Mike and team are kind and friendly. We worked together as a partners to agree upon a service option and then worked to get the car scheduled for its Ceramic Pro service. The Ceramic Pro service itself is the gold standard in auto detailing and ceramic coatings -- and there is no better product to protect your paint finish (and interior as well) than Ceramic Pro. Boulder Auto Detail has years of experience and treated my vehicle with great care and professionalism -- I was visually amazed at the finished product after the Ceramic Pro coating was applied. The protection, as well as the gloss and shine are simply stunning -- I will be bringing other vehicles to Boulder Auto Detail for Ceramic Pro coating and protection. I highly recommend Mike at Boulder Auto Detail for your vehicle's detailing needs -- they are experts, and all around nice guys. Boulder Auto Detail had a full garage of specialty vehicles and daily drivers and after visiting the shop (very clean and organized as well) it was clear that many people trust Boulder Auto Detail, as well as the high-quality outcome of Ceramic Pro coating. Well done, Mike -- see you soon.

I HIGHLY recommend Boulder Auto Detail for any detail work you need and of course their signature Ceramic Pro service! They are the best place to get this done!!! I initially brought my old Honda Fit in to get my headlights cleaned, and these guys did an amazing job with that! Mike then saw me roll in with my new '19 Forester and gave me all the info on Ceramic Pro for that. After my experience with the headlights and seeing the results of Ceramic Pro on Mike's car and other cars in the shop and doing research on Ceramic Pro, I decided to get the silver package to protect my investment and keep my new car looking great for years to come. Mike and Ricardo and everyone else there was super friendly and answered all my questions, and they got the job done fast and communicated with me sending me pictures of the progress along the way which was really cool. All in all I felt like I was in great hands and couldn't be happier with the job done! Thanks guys!!!

Boulder Auto Detail did very professional and thorough work on my car. They were very clear and concise with their estimate and over-delivered! My car looks the best since I purchased it (actually even better with the ceramic coating). I’d recommend them to anyone.

Ondine Geary

I got the gold ceramic package recently and the car looks fantastic. Clearly everyone here cares a great deal about the quality of the work they do. They're friendly, knowledgeable, and honest. I wouldn't go anywhere else; in fact I'm considering driving 1200 miles for my yearly refinishing as I'll be out-of-state.

Matt Stone

Mike and Ricardo just completed the ceramic coat on our Model3. It’s beautiful! Mike and team were great to work with. I highly recommend them

Jeff Gillio

16:27 25 Oct 18

Mike and Evan both went above and beyond in working on my car and the results are amazing. They also did a great job cleaning the interior of my truck, which was no small feat given that it probably hasn’t been cleaned since the late 90’s. If you need to have your vehicle detailed this is where you should bring it.

Rick Winter

22:54 22 Oct 18

Outstanding customer service and high quality work! Boulder Auto Detail took my Tesla Model 3 to a whole new level with the Gold Package Ceramic Coating. The results are amazing and the car looks a lot better than when it was first delivered (and now it'll stay that way). I highly recommend their service!

Wayne Phillips

21:38 13 Oct 18

I'm very glad I trusted my brand new Tesla Model 3 to the folks at Boulder Auto Detail. The were very professional and did a meticulous job. I chose the Gold option which took 4 days for 5 coats of Ceramic Pro. I really appreciated being kept up to date with the process via photos and videos. A great relief for the nervous new owner. The outcome is stunning. Wayne

Brad Papka

I took a Tesla to Boulder Auto Detail for Ceramic Pro and cannot recommend these guys enough. Ricardo did such an amazing job with the car keeping me updated throughout the process. The owner Mike was more than helpful with scheduling and explaining everything. Will be back without a doubt.

My land cruiser is 18 years old and mike and his crew made it look like new. Great value and excellent service! I would highly recommend these guys.

Mike and his crew at Boulder Auto Detail went above and beyond with my Outback. Professional, thorough, kind, and responsive. I couldn't be happier with their work and the experience I had there. This is the only place I'll be taking my car in the future. Thanks Mike (and amazing crew)!

Karen Bowen

18:43 04 Sep 18

I went to Boulder Auto Detail for ceramic coating and detailing. My car had lots of baked-in tree sap that had infiltrated the clear coat. Ricardo put in twice as many prep hours as a job like this would normally take, with no extra charge. Mike was super flexible and communicative throughout the multiple- day process.

Great service and excellent quality of work. The dirt of summer fun disappeared. My BMW has a shiny, protected finish for the Fall & Winter. Thanks so much!

Incredible service, attention to detail, and customer service! We recently purchased a SUV which had hard water spots, light scratches, and haziness all over the body. Mike and has experienced team made our vehicle's original black paint shine like a mirror. Our jaws dropped when we saw how well their detailing solutions worked! Mike and his team went above and beyond to help us with our paint problems and answer our questions. I would highly recommend Boulder Auto Detail to any car owner.

The results and customer service exceed my expectations in every way. The ceramic coating makes my truck look better than new. It is truly an amazing product and I could not be happier. Boulder Auto Detail went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. It is a rare but great feeling to work with a business that will accept nothing less than very best. Thank you for your help. Gabe

Evan, an enthusiast, painstakingly focused on the finest details, and Mike, a friendly, professional, and authentic proprietor. I drove my new A7 straight from the dealer to Boulder Auto Detail for Ceramic Pro Gold, thinking its dark blue metallic couldn't be improved - simply seeking tough surface protection against harsh CO winters. But I was mistaken, after the guys did a full paint correction, removing the smallest of dealer-induced swirls and scratches, they applied coat after coat of 9H. The result is stunning, and will stay that way... flawless even in direct sun, with deep, rich purple hues I couldn't see before. RIP wax, it's like driving a mirror!

Mike and Evan did an amazing job on my 2008 BMW that has been sitting in Boulder for the last 3 years exposed to the sun etc. The paint oxidation in my opinion was beyond repair but they did a full paint correction and brought it back to its original luster. They followed that with a Ceramic Pro coating - amazing - - car has a pearl sheen to it and feels like glass. I have another BMW 2002 (Family Show Car) that I will be bringing to Mike for the same makeover. Being from New York and being a car guy I can’t say enough about my satisfaction!!

Boulder Auto Detail is by far the best, most professional detail shop I have ever used! There is no need to research others. Whether you have a Lexus that needs high-end detailing or an old Subaru that needs life breathed back into... they are the shop to go to. They are worth every penny spent and then some. I brought my 18 year old Subaru Outback in this winter for a Bumper to Bumper service after a 5 year detailing hiatus. I couldn't believe my eyes when they were done. My Subaru looked nearly new inside and out! Everything from their headlight restoration to dog hair removal to the waxing to the leather conditioning was exceptional. The car is more fun to drive as a result! I have also taken in my Lexus SUV to be detailed there twice. Their attention to detail with high-end cars is unparalleled. The result is showroom quality! Detailing is a passion for the entire team, not just a job. You can tell when they speak to you about the year, make, model of your car; how they've detailed it; and how they recommend you maintain the car. We're lucky to have such a great shop in Boulder!

AMAZING!!!! If you've ever had the experience of getting your car detailed it can sometimes be a rushed process. Sometimes you find areas missed in the speed of getting your car done, it's crowded in many of the places and just not fun. Well, put all that aside and try out Boulder Auto Detail. Simply put it has been the best car detail experience I've ever had. Mike and his staff are extremely approachable and very friendly. More importantly, your car is detailed and cleaned to an immaculate level! My car was cleaner picking it up from here than when I first bought it new. That's how good of a job they do. Make sure you call and schedule your appointment, perfection does take time but it's worth every minute of the wait!

Excellent auto detailing shop. Just had my cars detailed and couldn't be happier with the result. Mike is friendly prompt to reply to my initial request and the shop was able to get me in right away.

As soon as I dropped by for a consultation, I knew my car would be in good hands. Mike pointed out some hail damage I hadn’t even seen, and reassured me about some water spots on my paint (which disappeared with a detailing). I was more than happy with the result of my car detailing, and it was a great price.

Quite simply they do amazing work and give great service. From dropping me of at work to making my headlights look "new" I was impressed with every interaction. I was so impressed I immediately signed up for an exterior detail. My car has almost 200k on it and they have made it look like a car a fraction of its age.

This place made my car look like a brand new car! I cannot express the talent and hard work they put into every vehicle, they only do two cars a day, And the quality of that shows. I've never seen my car this clean; I highly recommend them for any detailing. They did a magnificent job and I cannot rate them highly enough

Mike and his team did a great job on my car. You can tell they put in the extra effort to make sure they got all the details right. I was very impressed, everything is so clean, shiny, and smooth. To top if off, the customer service was top notch - he answered my call on a weekend, got me booked for that next week, and texted me photos of my car when it was ready to pickup. Will definitely recommend to friends.

10 year old Eclipse. Dull and dirty and tired looking. Now shiny and beautiful and energetic. Did it on a Sunday for me. The owner with another did it himself. Even the engine! I wish I had a transparent hood to show it off. Decided not to wait till I sell it one day. Why not enjoy your car's look now? Did I mention the headlight covers? Light could not even shine through them. Now they are new looking. Doesn't matter what it cost. Bring your car here.

Mike and the staff at Boulder Auto Detail did an amazing job on my truck. They were friendly and very thorough. The exterior of my truck looks better than it did when I bought the truck new! The interior is spotless and doesn't have any residual cleaning chemical smell...which I appreciate. They did a great job on the engine of my truck as well. The work Boulder Auto Detail did easily wiped away the past three years of wear and tear on my truck. I am excited to work with them again!

I came to Mike with a very unsavory situation. Oodles and oodles of barf sauce had been expelled in and on the passenger side of my whip and therefore was nearly undriveable due to the pungent odor. Mike proceeded to work with me and was more than pleasant and helpful, despite my unfortunate service request. When I came back to pick up my ride, she was shining like a cherry red, aloe-lathered sunburn. Sleek and smooth and oh yes, the chunks had been removed. To add, the other employees were working but didn't hesitate to chat and be extremely friendly. Thanks again for the great experience Mike! Would recommend this company to anyone!

Wow!! Mike and his team did a fabulous job on my daughter's 2010 Camry...it looked brand new when they were done!! Great service and super friendly!! Definitely worth the money!

I was happy with the quality of work and the customer experience. Mike is willing to talk to customers about the products and methods he and his team use. He even gave me useful advice on how to keep my vehicle looking sharp between professional cleanings.

I expected my car to look good, but it had never looked better after being detailed at Boulder Auto Detail, and it reminded me that excellence is harder and harder to find these days. The customer service and craftsmanship is excellent, top notch, superior quality. We needed to sell our car and took it to Boulder Auto Detail at the last minute (they were so accommodating) and without a doubt we made an extra couple of thousand dollars on the sale because the car looked so beautiful, even the engine was stunning. I highly recommend and am so glad I took our car to these amazing guys.

Mike did an incredible job on my vehicle, which thankfully is no longer covered with tree sap. It looks better than brand new, i'm thrilled! Mike is quick to respond to a phone call, very responsive on texts, friendly, professional, knowledgeable and is an extremely hard worker. His prices are fair and competitive. Overall excellent experience at Boulder Auto Detail, I highly recommend this business!

Mike and his crew did a great job. He got me in on short notice and worked with my schedule. When I picked the car up I had questions about how to maintain the cleanliness of the car and he spent a lot of time showing me the products he uses and he even gave me free microfiber cloths to help. Great work all around.

These guys did an amazing job! This is a small local business with experienced, hard-working guys. They have been in business in Boulder for a long time, but they obviously still love what they do and they take their job seriously. Mike, the owner, was easy to schedule with and went above and beyond. Their work exceeded my expectations. I'm pretty detail-oriented and I have zero complaints. :) They did such a great bumper-to-bumper job on my car that we decided to have my husband's scratched and dirty, huge Ford truck detailed too. Both cars looked absolutely beautiful when they were done. I definitely recommend using this company.

Mike did a fantastic job on my Subaru. I requested the Bumper-2-Bumper and was not disappointed. Car's like brand new. Having been to numerous car detailing places in Pennsylvania, Texas, and now Colorado- I can say these guys are the best out of all of them. Being a designer, I'm pretty particular about detail, so I was delighted to hear they share that seem feeling of getting every little bit. Well done. I definitely recommend ??

Mike and his crew did a fantastic job on my car. It looks better than when it first left the dealership when I bought the car 9 years ago. On top of that, Mike is courteous and professional and finished 3 hours earlier than originally promised. I would highly recommend you take your car to Boulder Auto Detail.

Mike and his crew went above and beyond to deep clean my vehicle! With kids and pets and a winter's worth of ski trips, the car's interior haf become caked with dried mud and food residue. I was able to get an appointment quickly, and in only a half-day's time, they made the car as good as new! Great location near downtown allowed me to drop off the car with ease, and a personal text with photo assured me the car was ready to pick up ahead of schedule. Money well spent! Highly recommend!
