Any recommended detailers in the NOVA area? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Ryan33 · 08-09-2013, 02:25 PM

I'm happy to say that in a couple weeks I will be a proud owner of a 2013 BRZ ltd.

I'd like to get opti-coat put on the car as soon as possible after driving it off the lot. Are there any detailers in the NOVA area that you guys would recommend that are high quality and reasonably priced? I searched through a few pages on the mid-Atlantic forum but couldn't find anything about this.

Thanks!

It was @DetailersDomain that actually came down, it was the one time they took it on the road to handle our big group. As for Local detailers there are a bunch on google/yelp if you would like to look them up.

I was thinking about another detailers domain thing but probably next year

Thanks for the replies. I noticed there were quite a few on Google. I just wanted to see if anyone had any good experiences with a particular one.

I used TLC Auto Detail - http://www.tlcautodetail.com/

They're located in Herndon, a guy named Dave runs the business out of his garage. I drove my car there, then Dave drove me to the Herndon P&R where I took one of the buses back to Arlington (5A to Rosslyn). Dave also offered to pick-up my car from Rosslyn and drop it off when done, but I didn't feel comfortable having someone drive my car that distance. The Opti-Coat cost $600.

I also used TLC, same price for the same service - they did a fantastic job. I had them pick up the car from my house and drop it off when they were done, no problems. Would not hesitate to recommend and will probably be using their services again myself.

There's a spot next to Mach V in Sterling. The name escapes my mind, I used their mobile unit (they just moved into the bigger facility by Mach V) but they did quality work at a very good price.

VRY Auto Detail. I agree with that -- good work, good price.
