I am writing to highly recommend Phil for his exceptional automotive skills and knowledge. He has consistently demonstrated a thorough understanding of what is needed for vehicle maintenance and repairs.
This is the second time I have sought his services, and I have always been impressed with his ability to explain the issues clearly and provide effective solutions.
I have attached photos for your review, showcasing the work he has done on my car.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Joh O.San Francisco, CA7812163May 17, 2024
Our car suffered some nasty scratches and overall the paint was in rough shape due to gas station car washes and other poor choices.
Phil stepped in, worked his magic and she's almost as good as new again.
He explained everything clearly, gave us the choice of options and costs and is clearly a master of his craft.
Highly recommended.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Margie G.San Francisco, CA8329May 1, 2024Updated review
I've been going to Phil for years after yet more years of trying many others. Id give him a constellation of stars if I could.
He is hands down the BEST detailer in the Bay Area. Not only that: he knows cars. I mean, he *knows* your vehicle's history better than a Carfax report simply by giving it a detailing. He picked up on my car's undisclosed/unreported prior repairs and painting about which I knew nada. Here's my recommendation: just go to him for services ... and listen.
Phil is a meticulous, uniquely talented car whisperer. Just go.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Dec 24, 2018Previous reviewPhil made my pipe dream of pimping my ride and cruising the Sunset Strip at least as real as it can get for an overworked woman "of a certain age" with a less-than-pimpable brown Cadillac SRX. He gave me a very fair price that included the perfect installation/balancing of 4 new tires in addition to a shiny car.
One thing I particularly liked about Phil was his knowledge of all things auto. For example, unlike me, he knew that someone had done prior work on what was likely undisclosed damage repair to the back passenger door due to slight overspray and other details that the common guy or gal (yep, me) would never know.
You want a bomb detailing by a true pro for an honest price, come see Phil. - Gio S.San Francisco, CA056Aug 7, 2024
My headlights were very hazy and yellow so I gave Phil a call to see what we could do. He squeezed me into his busy schedule that same day. He gave me a sample demo if what he was going to do and within 25 minutes my headlights looked great again. Very thorough, prompt and friendly. Phil knows what he's doing. 5 stars, will be back!

Phil did a great job on my good ol Corolla. I wanted an interior cleaning (basic light shampoo) and pet hair removal. This was pet hair built up over years (only with occasional vacuuming), he managed to get out most of it! Haven't seen the black carpet in the back of my car in awhile lol. Great value with promos available with cash payment. Got my headlights shiny again and cleaned my engine/battery! He gave advice of what should be maintenanced next to prevent my car from deteriorating which I appreciated. Definitely would go back again!

I curbed both of my driver side wheels on my Mini Countryman. The dealership and a body shop quoted me anywhere from $250 - $300 per wheel to fully repair them. Also, I would have to leave the car overnight.
Phil gave me another option. He said he could do a touchup paint blend process for $210 for both wheels that would save me at the very least $290. He said it wouldn't be perfect, but it will look a lot better than it does now and save me money and time. I took his suggestion because I will probably curb them again and it's not worth getting them fully repaired. I couldn't be happier, and it only took him a few hours.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Bryant ..San Francisco, CA019Sep 23, 2023
I called in such a short notice and right away Phil the owner booked me in for the next day. I had a lot of damage on my hood with a lot of clear coat and touch up paint and he got rid of all of it ! I asked him how much it would be for fixing the hood and polishing the car and for everything just $400 was a amazing price for the damage my car had . He made my car look brand new fell in love with it again would highly recommend to anyone !! He even threw in a free headlight restoration which completed the whole look of the car !

I was looking for someone to fix the foggy headlights on my Toyota. Phil was the most responsive of everyone I got quotes from, and was super flexible and accommodating as far as scheduling the work. He did a free demo on the headlights to make sure we were happy with the work before committing.
The work itself was phenomenal. It only took about 20-30 minutes, and my headlights look 99% better. Take a look at my before/after pic. He also explained how to properly care for the headlights in the future.
I'd definitely recommend working with Phil, and I'll be bringing our cars back to him for touch-ups on other work in the future.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

I wanted to get my wife's car interior detailed last minute on a Saturday. I called at 8am and was able to get an appointment at noon. Phil explained what he was able to do and set reasonable expectations with stains and suggested things that would help make the interior shine.
Phil texted us photos of before and after and was done on time. He rocks and would go back again for exterior and interior for my car.
Great find on Yelp!Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information
