Detailing, Denver.

skyw4lker808 · 10-13-2015, 11:39 PM

Anybody have any experience with detailing services in Denver? Specifically i'm looking to get a little help with some paint correct (minor swirling in the clear coat). Normally I would do this myself, but since now living in a condo I don't have the facilities to do so.

That being said, any recommendations that aren't SVE autobody?

2 recommendations:
1. Aloha detailing-I would request that only the owner, Kerwin performs the work.
Kerwin has detailed my company car and did a great job.
2. Man Cave. No personal experience however I've seen some of the paint work out of that shop and it looked good.
Both vendors have been around awhile and are well reviewed.
Both will try to sell you on a coating (coatings are great) albeit pricy.
Cheers

Thanks for the recommendations, I have an appointment with man cave in centennial tomorrow to get a quote. I'll post the results.

How did it go at man cave? I'm also looking for a good detailer in the Denver area for my Jet Black M3.

Man Cave did a great job on my (since sold) Jet E90. For a while they were doing mobile work while they were in between shops. They didn't do their best work on my Audi wagon... but mobile work has got to be particularly tough. Their new space is open now and I'm sure they're back to the same stellar results.

I actually ended up not having the detailing done just yet because i ended up deciding to put the car away for the winter, but I have every plan to do so with them after the winter.

They had quoted me a relatively fair $300 for detailing and paint correction, and if i decide to have them do wet sanding to get out the factory orange peel another $1k. They're very nice, and seem very knowledgable. But as Baliano said, they definitely push coatings. Also, their new facility, which is right across the street form dove valley, is definitely impressive. I'm looking forward to spring when my M will come back out of the garage and get detailed so I can share the results
