Detailer reccomendation in San Jose/Cupertino?
 

Hey guys, I'm new to the area. All of my detailing supplies are back in Canada, and I don't have a place or the time to wash my car myself anymore so I'm looking to find a good detailer in the area.

Does anyone have any recommendations? :cheers:

AJ's on Coleman Ave in San Jose always does an awesome job, I never go anywhere else!

There's also a good sized shopping center right across the street that will help pass time. A Jamba Juice and Starbucks are right next to each other. Which are prolly the first two establishments you'll run into. Then about half way into the shopping center is some food. I'd recommend checking out Smash Burger hmmmmmmm. There's also an L&L Hawaiian BBQ next to Smash. Trader Joes for groceries. A few fast food places, not sure what they are cuz I pass on fast food usually. There's also a Target and World Market that you could prolly walk in and around for a few hours in. All the way on the other side is a Panera Bread that you can lounge around in also. My wife and I usually just sit at Panera or Starbucks while our cars are getting done.

WHAT EVER YOU DO! Avoid the BJ's in there! It's pretty new and was fantastic in the beginning but service has gone down hill. Hope I didn't offend anyone if they happen to work there.

+1 for AJ's! Always on time with when they say your car will be finished!

Is AJ's the place that does the under carriage steam cleaning too?

@AFRichZC6

They do "EVERYTHING" ;)

Happy Ending?

Welcome to the south Bay :party0030:

AJ's - good. BJ's - bad. got it? :lol:

Haha! I like how out of everything that was said you dissected everything into a few words. You must've been every professors dream student.

Touché :cheers:

Hey can someone tell me what service to get at AJ's if i'm trying to remove swirls from my car? Thanks! and if anyone knows the pricing on it.

@peachsnow, have you thought about contacting one of the local members. I think there are a few people on here that detail. Maybe hit up @Kamakanani0 or Richard (I think his handle is AFRZC6).

Haha will do, I had no idea other members did detailing.

@peachsnow
I've heard great things about @Kamakanani0
I'll actually be taking mine in soon.

haha really? I'll imbox him for a quote thanks!

Richard is @AFRichZC6

Ohh I think I'm going to contact Richard instead since he's in San Jose.

Imma go against the grain and say Detail Addicts in santa clara. I went to AJ's, not a fan -- Detail Addicts are a premium but well worth it in the end.

How was your experience with Detail Addict?

Yes I would like to know about this place as well !

I did not know their location is literally walking distance my home in Santa Clara :bonk:

I go to them once per quarter.

Here's what I pay for:
Bronze Package
1/2 hour interior detailing

They are a premium but they didn't ever fuck up my car and I trust them with it without worry.

They do not do walk-ins so always make an appointment and plan it out.

I would say they are a little more than double the price of AJ's but all worth it. THey also sell their detail products for home use and provides classes on how to detail your car.

Let them know that James Sent you (White 2013 FRS). Leo is the owner -- great guy, drives a WRB WRX. Wife is really nice too, very sweet lady.

It's funny because those company area is where I used to hold all my underground cycling races since it is very circuit-like .

I never knew I was passing their location all this time :bonk:

Have you ever gotten the silver package ?

I need to find someone to coat my Impreza with a paint coating. Called around to a few places, but it is a bit of money. Looking at the directions online, it looks pretty straight forward to install... but I barely have time to do it.

Silver package I've never bought since I never thought it was necessary, though they do also offer their own opticoat like coverage.

Never did it -- their work on Bronze is so good already, never though I'd needed it =)
