BOOK A TIME TO MAkE YOUR CAR SHINE!Why invest in detailing?
Some people see detailing as an unnecessary expense or an optional “bonus”.
That’s understandable but the truth is:
Detailing is a necessity.
And it’s an investment that will pay dividends in the long term.
See, detailing actually extends the life of your car. All that dirt, dust, & grime? It’s abrasive. It scratches paint and destroys interiors.
So keeping your car clean now reduces those negative effects of daily wear and tear. Before it’s too late and the damage has been done.
And when it’s finally time to sell your beloved car, you’ll be able to sell it faster, for more money, and with a lot less hassle. Just like many others have!
(PS. Not to mention you’ll get some nice emotional bonuses. Because pro detailing will help you look good, feel good, impress your friends, and make your neighbors jealous!)
What's Included?
Whether you’ve got a brand new ride or one that’s 20+ years old…my Pro Detail Service is guaranteed to give you that showroom shine everybody loves!
Here’s a look at what you get 👇
Exterior & Mats
The transformation begins by applying my secret bug remover to the front bumper, side mirrors, and windshield. We then remove the floor mats and get them looking good as new.
Wash & Rinse
Next I high pressure wash everything, paying special attention to bugs, wheel wells, and door jambs. I then high-pressure rinse the exterior for a spot-free rinse that shines like a beacon.
Drying
Next is the all-important chamois dry. This is where so many folks go wrong, leaving the exterior full of streaks & possibly even damaging the paint. My system ensures a beautiful streak-free shine, and paint that looks as good as new.
Grime & Skudge Removal
Time to deploy my pro crumb-crunching skills and vacuum up all those pesky crumbs! Next I remove finger prints and anything else unsightly from door moldings, the gear shifter, steering wheel, and the dash.
Complete Vacuum
Vacuuming Part II! This is where I complete the vacuuming. Paying special attention to hard to remove debris like grass, pet hair, and other finicky fibers.
Interior Sparkle
Next I prepare everything for my special interior shine. Giving the upmost care to mats, vents, and jambs for that perfect showroom interior shine.
Exterior Trim
We apply exterior trim shine to breathe life back into faded trim. I inspect the wheels, remove nasty grease, and finish off by applying my famous tire shine.
Glass & Mirrors
Time to make your glass and mirrors sparkle like new, because what’s more important to driving than visibility? We polish all those glass surfaces, both inside and out.
Final Inspection
Quality control time. During this final inspection, I’ll inspect my work and apply finishing touches. And of course I’ll take some after pics for the inspiration gallery.

Frequently Asked
Questions
Do I need to prep my car before I come see you?
Before we kick things into high gear with your detailing appointment, a quick pit stop: please make sure to clear out any debris, loose change, or forgotten snacks from your car.
Once we’ve got a clean slate to work with, we’ll rev up our engines and have your ride looking sleek and shiny in no time!
Ready, set, let’s do this!
Does your detailing cover interior and exterior?
Yes, I expertly detail both the interior and exterior. However, I do not wax vehicles.
What if my car is...you know...super duper nasty?
My services are for drivers who value a clean ride, and love that showroom shine. If your vehicle needs a deeper clean, such as carpet shampooing or faded paint repair I am happy to provide a professional referral.
Additional charges for tar removal, overspray or rail dust removal, may apply and can be discussed at the time of your appointment. In addition, clear coat etching/marring from bugs and other debris can permanently harm your cars’ appearance. I will point these out to you upon pick-up.
In addition to my price schedule, additional fees may apply to larger vehicle’s. We will discuss these upfront, before your service begins.
I really want to learn the art of detailing. Can you help?
Yes, you can detail your car right alongside me once you book your appointment. Together, we’ll trick out your ride. And when we’re finished I’ll give you a list of the products we just used and where you can get them so you can give yourself that showroom shine time after time. Plus I’m always available for a quick text or phone call in case questions come up.
What times & locations do you offer?
All express detailing services will be available on Saturdays at Tony’s Turbo Wash (Next to Fesler Express).
You can book your Saturday appointment here or call/text me at 641-919-9391 to enquire about availability. Don’t hesitate to reach out. Your support means everything to me.
I look forward to giving your car that showroom shine everybody loves this season!
What if something comes up or weather is lousy?
If inclement weather prevents me from completing your detail service we will reschedule your service for the following week or on a Saturday of your choice.
Isn't detailing just for really nice cars?
Not at all. Look at this way:
The better shape your car is in, the easier (and faster) it will be to sell it later. And you’ll get more money for it. Just common sense, right?
Problem is if you don’t care for your car on a regular basis, dirt and grime builds up. That’s bad for the paint and makes the interior look old and weathered.
And hey let’s be honest. It just feels better to drive around in a nice, clean, sparkly car!
I'm old school and like to talk on the phone before I book an appointment. Can I call you first?
Of course! I take calls after 5 M-F and anytime on the weekend. (641) 919-9391.
I just wanna buy your kit and do it myself. Is that allowed?
Sure, just speed on over to my sister site at www.mydiycarguy.com
Can you really detail my ride in an hour?
Yes, for my own ride and that of my customers’ that I stay on top of monthly, an hour hits the mark every-time.
But for most folks, realistically you’re looking at 90-minutes to 3-hours.
My $97 express detailing service is perfect for getting your everyday city car shining like new after it gathers a little dust and dirt.
But listen, if your ride has been through the wringer with Iowa’s brutal winters, muddy backroads, or plenty of dog-friendly adventures, it might need a bit more TLC.
But don’t worry, I’ve got your back! I’ve been detailing cars for over 30 years so I know how to tackle even the toughest messes.
When you drop off your car, we’ll go over anything that might need some extra elbow grease. If it looks like your car needs deeper cleaning for heavy dirt, stubborn pet hair, or other tricky spots, I’ll let you know upfront if there will be a small extra charge. No surprises, I promise!
My goal is to get your car looking absolutely amazing again. And then, ask you if you would like to be a monthly maintenance customer for ONLY $65 per month!
If you have any questions shoot me a text or give me a ring at (641) 919-9391. I’m here to make sure you get the top-notch express detailing service you deserve. And I can’t wait to work my magic on your ride!
I'm thinking about selling or maybe trading my car soon. How can you help?
