Auto Detailing near Ladson, SC

“I brought my 2018 Ford F-150 to get the windows tinted. Staff is very knowledgeable and answered all my question about getting ceramic coating on my truck. Service was great fast and efficient. Would recommend this company to any and everybody. Thanks for the great service.”

“First and foremost, Erik Dublin, owner of Carolina Mobile Wash & Auto Detailing, is a consumate professional. The pride he takes in his work shines like a beacon in the night. He checks and double checks each and every box when it comes to customer satisfaction. And, BTW - Eric is 100% self contained.

Here's the story's Cliff Notes...

My wife (72) & I (almost 77) are fostering the niece of a former employee. She turned 16, on 11/13/24. She's a great kid, an honors student, has a part-time job, does chores, volunteers at Pet Helpers, etc. She's saved enough money to buy her first vehicle...a 2001 Honda CRV, with 103k miles on the odometer our future son-in-law found in Savannah, GA.

For a 23+ year old vehicle, it was pretty well maintained good mechanically and aesthetically. However, the exterior did look old and tired. I decided that sprucing it up would be a great Sweetie 16th Birthday gift.

Unfortunately, even after a couple of baths, a Megiare's cleaner wax application and multiple attempts (with a variety of high touted OTC products) to blacken the CRV's very faded plastic trim, it still looked old and tired. This was not the Sweet 16 gift I was hoping to give Delaney.

So, I contacted Erik. I sent him some photos and we discussed some options, agreed upon a price, and scheduled an appointment.

I'm not sure what to call each of the steps in Eric's process, but it included a thorough wash, a blow and wipe dry, a paint correcting buffing with compound to remove the majority of embedded stains and flaws in the paint, followed by a second thorough washing and drying, an application of wax and an application of hand-buffed graphene.

After that, Erik attempted to apply a pro-grade plastic trim dressing. It didn't take. He said he'd return and apply a professional grade plastic trim dye.

As promised, Erik returned a second time and attempted to apply plastic trim dye. Once again, the 23 year old plastic trim was not having none of it and rejected the plastic trim dye.

Eric would not give up. He offered to return a third time (on 11/13/24) to paint the plastic trim using professional grade plastic trim paint. When he returned in the late morning of Delaney's16th birthday, he painstakingly masked-off all the plastic trim and meticulously applied the plastic trim paint. What Erik did was way beyond tedious, but 100% successful!

What Erik's did was akin to dunking that 2001 Honda CRV in the Fountain of Youth. Delaney was over-the-moon thrilled!

And get this...After making three trips, Eric charged the price upon which we originally agreed.

Kudos and thanks to Erik!”

“We were looking to sell our truck and stopped in to see what we could get as we have equity. It was the easiest process I have ever had. Stop in and ask for David Clancy. He is the nicest guy and there to help you. I can’t say enough great things about him and the whole process. We will definitely be back when we buy our daughter’s car!”

“Great service and knowledgeable staff! They went out of their way to show me examples of the different tints both from the display and on cars in the lot so that I would feel comfortable making the right decision.”

“I'm overly pleased with the quality of work. I won't be taking my car anywhere else. The employees are very nice respectful and professional. I really enjoyed the experience and will most definitely be back for more care. 1st choice without a 2nd thoughtServices: Full body wash”

“Kobe & Shaq, Fire & Ice, and one other dynamic duo y’all need to know about is Cole & Monique. I came to Cole (Shop Owner) with a decent sized dent and paint scratch on my right door and rocker panel from a small pole I tapped in a parking garage. I went to multiple body shops and paint shops around town and was hearing outrageous pricing to get this fixed with little to know reasoning behind the quote. Cole took the time to explain, inform, and save me a considerable amount of money to get this done. Monique, the shop manager, was very informative, knowledgeable, nice, and in short, great at her job.

The Maaco N. CHS team off Dorchester is bar none to other auto body providers in the area. In addition to the stellar body work and paint work, they gave me a few dollars upon picking up the truck for the troubles of transportation to and from the store.

Customer service goes a long way in today’s world and this crew knows what that means and how to operate.

If anyone needs any body work or paint work, I could not recommend them enough.

Huge thank you to Cole & Monique!”

“I want to give a huge shout out to James and Alex the GM at Cactus Car Wash! They went above and beyond to make sure my car was totally rid of ants. I went there after all the rain we had a few weeks ago and my car was full of ants, which I didn’t realize. They cleaned my car beautifully and got rid of the ants! Thank you so very much for taking the extra time!”

“Staff are very nice and ready to help. The car wash gets dirt off your hood and sides of car however if you have a car with a luggage rack the top of your car does not get clean. If I am paying $30 for a car wash, I think the car should get cleaner.”
