Bay Area Detailer

[rbz808]

New Taycan owner. Looking for a go to detailer. Preferably a place that can also do miscellaneous jobs like install parts.

I highly recommend Artec Automotive, they did a macan ev for me and taycan turbo s, talk to Ernest there, their pricing might be on the high side but they do a great job.

I had a great experience with Dynamic Detailing.

They are now my go-to shop for things like this.

no parts installation - but excellent detail work.

Do they do regular detailing? Doesn't show on their website as one of their services though they recommend a yearly maintenance detail for ceramic coatings.

I don’t know and I would like to find out. I don’t like doing my own car any more.

I've been doing it every dry weekend since I got the car. I've enjoyed it so far and it's getting easier with the right equipment. Cleaning interior glass is the worst though.

I’m getting too old for it. When I do it I feel it for 1-2 days afterward.

I did mine yesterday and I’m paying for it today.

Aging 0/10 do not recommend

Try Traceless with the right towel (like FTW)

Me too In fact several days later. It's one of the "good pains" though.

I found out that I should be using different microfiber towels for the glass about a week later than I should have. Turns out I had one and had long forgotten about it... it really helped when I used it, so I got some Rag Company Diamond Weave towels, just delivered yesterday.

I've been researching glass cleaner (been using 25% IPA) and ran across the Traceless but balked at the price. It might be worth it if it doesn't require buffing after... spray and wipe. How is it working for you?

My favorite glass cleaner is something I discovered in the pinball hobby. 50/50 mix of isopropyl alcohol and distilled water.

It’s been working great with the ftw and some other high quality towels, I have few glass specific towels and they are usually not easy to work with.
If you want to try traceless you are welcome to bring a spray bottle and I can fill it up for you from my 5L jug
