About US
​
Thank you for your continued exploration of our company and, we hope, the auto detail industry in general. Our primary goal is to educate and expand upon your familiarity with us and the products we use to attain our status as a comprehensive car care and detailing provider. We are here to inform you that the days of conventional waxes and greasy tire coatings are long gone and to reveal what ceramic coating is and how it works. Our goal is to be informative which is why we describe the benefits, the advancements and modern application methods, and realistic longevity of each product. We also want to emphasize that the success of our products hinges primarily upon forming a lasting bond with the PROPERLY prepared surface: paint, tires, trim, glass and all interior elements. PREPARATION, preparation, preparation is paramount. The very best products on the market will only perform to its full potential in the hands of a professionally trained and experienced installer like Upper Hand Detailing.
The work we do is very labor intensive, requiring several steps associated with each service. We adhere to a strict regimen as you would expect when you entrust a company to safely handle your vehicle. We can transport your vehicle to our garage and then deliver it for the "reveal" after it has been transformed by our team or simply visit you and treat it on-site. While we are a full service auto detailing company, our focus is on paint “correction” followed by ceramic paint protection. Paint correction consists of several steps prior to the application of any of several finish coats on offer. Identifying hairline scratches and swirl marks left by automated car washing equipment, detecting where oxidation and fading are greatest and measuring the density of the existing clear coat are critical steps to determine the condition of your vehicle’s paint. The steps required to restore your car’s paint to its original luster are how we price our service(s). The average vehicle with standard daily wear and tear will require a minimum of 4 steps prior to the application of any of our coatings. We do not cut corners, make omissions, or compromise the quality of our work. Our quoted prices are based upon an estimate unless we have physically evaluated your vehicle.
Our, made in USA, industry defining ceramic coating carries a 6 year lifespan on vehicles that are housed within an enclosed garage and/or not subjected to prolonged exposure to the elements. A realistic expectation for full efficacy of our ceramic coating is 4 years. Our tire and trim sealant is another wonder of chemistry. Rather than weeks of protection, you can expect 6 months of reliability. The value we provide by offering individual treatments or all-inclusive ones is second only to the claim we make about the savings to you after your car leaves our garage. The tangible quality of our workmanship will be instantly gratifying as your finger glides along the butter smooth surface of your car’s finish. The savings will continue to compound as the intervals between regular washings are prolonged. Many of our customers claim that simply “driving in the rain” sheds the dust, dirt and road film and even hail the fact that a regular “rinse with the hose” will maintain a dust free surface between washings. It is testimonials like these that have yielded the term “self-cleaning”. Furthermore, the interval to break out the bucket and soap or run through the car wash at the gas station (definitely do your best to avoid mechanical/automated car wash facilities that utilize abrasive rollers and brushes) will be very obvious as it extends beyond what was typical before the ceramic coating was applied.
