Car detailing & ceramic coating in Shrewsbury
The detailing bay behind every car MP Auto Group sells – now its own business, open to any car. Paint measured first, corrected properly, then protected with Cartec Ceramic Guard.
Swirl removal: swirl marks are washing damage, not paint damage
Most swirls and light scratches sit in the lacquer over your paint, put there by poor washing. Machine polishing removes a controlled amount of that lacquer to level the surface and bring the gloss back.
Lacquer is finite, so we measure paint depth first – every time, on every car – and take off exactly as much as the finish needs.

Ceramic Guard by Cartec
✓ Approved Cartec Ceramic Guard specialist
We coat with Ceramic Guard, Cartec's SiCarbon+ coating. Cartec replaced the oxygen in a conventional SiO₂ coating with carbon, which they say means far less layer loss as it cures – and a denser, more scratch-resistant, glossier finish.
Cartec backs specialist-applied Ceramic Guard with a three-year warranty, extendable with Ceramic Guard 4life.
Detailing across Shropshire
Based in Shrewsbury, working on cars from across the county.

What customers say
I took my Range Rover sport to Max and the team for an alloy wheel repair, a “door bang” dent repair and finally to be ceramic coated. Lovely lads and a first class job. The car looks amazing. Thank you so much.
Asked before every booking
Do you only detail cars bought from MP Auto Group?
No. The bay that prepares every MP Auto Group car is open to any car, wherever you bought it.
Will machine polishing damage my paint?
Machine polishing removes a controlled amount of lacquer to level the surface – that is how it works. Because lacquer is finite and removal cannot be undone, we measure paint depth first on every car and take off no more than the finish needs.
How long does a full detail take?
A full detail takes 3 days, so we'll book your car in for that time. We're drop-off only – we don't offer collection.
How much does detailing or ceramic coating cost?
Prices depend on the car's size, its condition and the work needed, so every car is quoted individually. Get in touch with your reg or a few photos and we'll come back with a quote.
Can I have a ceramic coating without paint correction?
No. The coating is optically clear, so applying it over uncorrected paint just seals the swirls in. Correction first, then the coat.
