Polish it first, then coat it.

A coating locks in whatever is under it. These pair a paint correction with a Feynlab ceramic coating, and they're what people book most.

From people I've worked with

Don't take my word for it.

I achieved a goal I set way back in high school to one day own a Corvette. I wanted only the best when it came to detailing and a ceramic coat that would last. I thought I understood 'show room ready' but was shown a much higher level of what that really means after A1 Coating was done with it. It looks so good I don't want to take it out of the garage.

When I got it the vehicle had severe defects in the paint. A1 Coating restored my paint and made my car look like a brand new vehicle. I have nothing but praise for the quality of their work. A1 Coating will take care of you and your car. You won't be disappointed.

Neff was able to take care of my car and get her looking new. His attention to detail is out of this world. Awesome work for a good price. Will definitely be taking my cars to him to have that A1 touch.

Who works on your car

Eleven years in. Still doing it by hand.

I started working on cars with my brother back in middle school. That turned into 11 years of detailing, paint correction and ceramic coating here in Dallas, and a Feynlab certification along the way.

  • I correct the paint before I coat it. Every time.
  • You get a price before I touch the car.
  • If something isn't the right fix for your car, I'll tell you.
More about how I work

Based in West Dallas. I'll drive to you for the smaller jobs.

Pricing, deposits, timing

Questions I get asked every week.

Still have one? Ask it on the booking form and I'll answer it with your quote.

How much is it going to cost?

Depends on the car, how big it is, and what shape it's in. An exterior wash and wax starts at $60. A full detail starts at $200, paint correction at $500, and ceramic coating at $900. Heavy hail or a car that's been let go for years can run into the thousands. Send me a few pictures and I'll give you a real number.

Do I have to put down a deposit?

Yes. 50% down holds your appointment and lets me order product for your car. If you cancel or reschedule there's a fee, 25% of the deposit. If something comes up, call me and we'll figure it out.

How long are you going to have my car?

A wash is about an hour. A full detail is 3 to 5 hours. Paint correction is usually 1 to 2 days. Ceramic coating is 2 to 3 days because it has to cure before it sees any weather.

Do you come to me or do I drop it off?

Both. Rim repair and washes I do mobile, anywhere in DFW. Paint correction and coating happen at my shop in Dallas where I control the light and the dust. Tell me which you'd prefer on the booking form.

What does a ceramic coating actually do?

It bonds to your clear coat and forms a hard layer on top. Water and dirt slide off, the sun doesn't fade the paint as fast, and washing takes about five minutes. It won't stop rock chips. Nothing does. But it's the best protection you can put on paint, and I only use Feynlab.

Can I book a detail as a gift for somebody?

People do it all the time. All I need is the deposit and the keys on the day. Put 'gift' in the notes and I'll keep it quiet.

My car got hit by hail. What do I do?

Take pictures in good light and send them over. I'll tell you if paintless dent repair will work on it and what it'll cost.
