What comes out of the bay

Four ways in. Every one ends with a vehicle you actually want to sit in again, from a Kia Optima to an F-150 FX4.

Interior

For the back seat that's seen things.

  • Vacuumed top to bottom, under seats and in the tracks
  • Pet hair pulled out of carpet and cloth
  • Stains treated: coffee, mud, kid spills
  • Leather cleaned and conditioned
  • Dash, console, vents and cupholders detailed

Exterior

Gloss you can see the shop lights in.

  • Hand wash and dry
  • Wheels, tires and wheel wells
  • Bug, tar and road grime removed
  • Gloss protection on the paint
  • Trim dressed, glass streak-free

Full detail

Inside and out on one drop-off.

  • Everything in the interior package
  • Everything in the exterior package
  • The one to book before you sell
  • Or after a Midwest winter of salt and slush

Coatings

It's in the name.

  • Protective coatings that hold gloss longer
  • Water and grime slide off; washing gets easier
  • Matched to your paint and how you drive
  • Quoted after we've seen the vehicle
Every vehicle gets its own quote. Size and condition set the price, and customers keep using the same words for it: fair and affordable.

The back-seat test

Rachel brought in a Kia Optima with dog hair and an iced-coffee stain worked across the back seat. Drag across the photo and do the short version of what we did.

Out of the bay

Real vehicles, real shop, all photographed at 120 N 9th Street. Tap any one to see it big.

How a drop-off works

Three steps. Zero waiting rooms.

01

Call or text, any hour

217-740-2763. Tell us the vehicle and what it's been through. Midnight works. So does 6 AM before your shift.

02

Drop it off, name your time

Leave it at 120 N 9th Street and tell us when you'll be back. One customer did exactly that with their son's truck and came back to it "looking amazing."

03

Drive away armored

Pick it up clean inside and out. Most people's next text is about when they're coming back.

I took my Kia Optima to Armor Coatings and couldn't be more impressed with the results. There was dog hair & an iced coffee stain all over the back seat. Within 3 hours they had my car looking brand new.

Are you really open 24/7?

Yes. Call or text 217-740-2763 at any hour to set up a drop-off or pickup. Tell us when you'll be back and we'll have it ready.

How long does a detail take?

It depends on the vehicle and what it's been through. For a sense of scale, Rachel's Kia Optima went from dog hair and an iced-coffee stain to "brand new" in about three hours.

Do you work on trucks, vans and big SUVs?

All the time. Pickups, minivans, Durangos, Escalades, F-150s: if it fits through the bay door, we can detail it.

How much does it cost?

Every vehicle is quoted on its size and condition. Use the quote builder to send us the details, and you'll hear back with a price. Reviewers call it fair and affordable.
