Reconditioning That Restores Your Vehicle’s True Finish
Our reconditioning process goes beyond a standard detail. We deep-clean, decontaminate, and refresh interior and exterior surfaces, then enhance gloss with professional single-stage to multi-stage polishing. Ideal for vehicles that need more than a wash—but not a full paint correction.
-
Deep exterior cleaning & decontamination
-
Detailed vacuum + Interior wipe-down + light stain treatment

Gloss enhancement through machine polishing
Premium Ceramic Coatings for Lasting Protection & Shine
Kansas City’s #1 Professional-grade R1 Coatings installed in studio for unmatched gloss, slickness, and long-term durability.
Ceramic coatings create a hardened, hydrophobic layer that protects your paint from UV damage, contamination, and environmental fallout. Our certified process includes proper surface preparation and controlled studio application to ensure maximum gloss and longevity. If you’re looking for long-term protection and a finish that stays easy to maintain, coatings offer the best value.
-
Enhanced gloss and deep, liquid shine
-
Long-term protection (2–10 year options available)
-
Easier maintenance with long-lasting hydrophobic performance
