OBSESSIVE AUTOMOTIVE.

ELITE SHOW & SHINE AUTO DETAILING & FINISHING
We're open again for the 2020 season!
Reserve your slot today—your car is begging you.
Let’s get your ride cleansed of the residue of the past winter.

Please note: as of April 1, for obvious reasons, we are
currently not cleaning interiors. And to limit contact,
​we're accepting payments only via PayPal and Venmo! Stay safe!

YOUR CAR DESERVES IT.

To us, cars are more than just appliances intended to take you from point A to point B—to get used up and thrown away like a ball point pen. We believe that cars are an extension of who we are as individuals, and they should be cared for as such.

We get it. You park as far away from the store in the parking lot to protect your baby. You drive it only when the weather is good. You take it to car shows and pop the hood to show off your toy. We understand your love for your car. We're car guys, too.

Your car is precious, and so is your time. Let Purple Towel Auto Detailing take care of both for you.

Price in addition to a Level 3 detail. Not a wax or synthetic sealant, but rather a clear resin that chemically bonds to clear coats, creating a tough shell of protection that can withstand repeated exposure to environmental contaminants without wearing off. Protects against wash-induced swirl marks, oxidation, bug stains, road salt, water spots and bird droppings. Intense gloss that can't be replicated with conventional waxes. Lasts up to 2+ years or more.

MUST be applied over a full correction and polish, no exceptions. Ceramic coatings require a minimum of 1 week lead time and a $200 deposit.

Other services such as PlastiDip© coatings, paint chip touch-up, bug & tar removal, decal application or removal, wiper blade and bulb replacement are available on-demand, and subject to an hourly rate quote. Call or e-mail for an estimate. We work by appointment only and require 24-hours advance notice to guarantee a weeknight or weekend slot, weather-permitting. Exact quote is given after a physical assessment and depends on size, type and overall condition of the vehicle.

Detailing services require a non-refundable deposit of 20% to hold your scheduled reservation, with the balance due when the car is picked up.
​We accept PayPal, Venmo, Square and old fashioned cash (a 3% additional fee for PayPal or Square CC payments) .
