Mirrorhall, a detailing house in Corktown, Detroit: six bays, one stage of the work in each, and one finish at the end.

Wash

Every car comes in through the wash. Snow foam first, then iron and tar remover, then a clay bar over every panel, until the paint is clean enough to read.

On its own or before anything else. Every other work on this page starts here, at no extra cost.

Correction

Under the lamp, the swirls show. We cut them out with a rotary, then refine with a dual action, taking off only as much clear coat as the defect needs. Hold the light and move it over the paint.

Coupé
$950
Saloon
$1,100
SUV
$1,350
Exotic
$1,800

Two stages, cut and refine. A single-stage refresh for newer paint starts at $480.

Bay 03 Two days, one of them curing

Ceramic

Two layers of ceramic, laid by hand one panel at a time, levelled within a minute and cured under infrared overnight. Water beads and rolls off, and dirt has nothing to hold on to.

Coupé
$1,400
Saloon
$1,600
SUV
$1,900
Exotic
$2,400

Correction comes first, or the coating seals the swirls in. Five-year warranty, checked every spring.

Bay 04 Three days

Protection film you can't see, cut to the panel on our own plotter and wrapped round every edge. Stone chips stay on the film, and light scratches heal in the sun.

SUV

Exotic
$3,600

Full front: bonnet, wings, bumper, mirrors. Full body from $6,400. Gloss or satin, same price.

Bay 06 The last hour

Handover

Before you take the key, we walk round the car with you under the lamps. The paint report is in the glovebox: every panel, before and after, in microns.

Coupé
$450
Saloon
$520
SUV
$600
Exotic
$800

The walk-round is always free. The concours handover adds a final hand polish, glass, trim and tyres, the morning you collect.

Book this work

Measured panel
to panel.

A paint gauge reads the clear coat in microns. We read every panel when your car arrives and again before it leaves, so you can see exactly what was taken off and what was laid down.

What every job includes

A wash on the way in, a paint report on the way out, and a car that stays indoors the whole time. Every price on this page includes tax.

The paint report

Every panel read with a gauge before we touch it and again before you collect. Both sets of readings, and the photos under the lamp, are yours to keep.

The deposit

A quarter of the price, taken when you book and set against the final bill. Refunded in full if the first reading tells us the work isn't safe to do.

Which cars

Anything with paint on it: classics, daily drivers, track cars. If the clear coat is too thin to correct, you hear it on the first reading and pay for the wash only.

Collection and delivery

An enclosed transporter within 150 miles of Corktown, $180 each way. Or drive in: the door on Michigan Avenue opens at 7:30.

Changing your mind

Move or cancel free until 48 hours before drop-off. After that we keep the deposit, and offer you the next free bay.

Price list.

All prices in US dollars, tax included. Time is how long the car stays with us for that work alone.
