Questions,
Answered Straight.

The things people actually ask before booking — pricing, prep, ceramic coating, and service area. If it's not here, call or text us.

Do I have to pay before you start?

No. You only pay once the detail is finished and you've had a chance to walk around the car in good light. There's no deposit to book, either — that applies to every package, including paint correction and ceramic coating.

What do I need to have ready — water, power, anything?

Nothing. The van carries its own water, filtered down to 0 PPM through a four-stage RO/DI system, plus its own power and steam equipment, so we can set up in a driveway, apartment lot, or office parking spot without borrowing a hose or an outlet.

Do you have a shop I need to drop my car off at?

No — Texas Auto Club is fully mobile. We come to you anywhere in the Austin service area below. There's no storefront to drive to.

How long does an appointment take?

A Maintenance Detail runs about an hour. A Full Detail or Luxury Detail usually takes two to three hours. Paint correction and ceramic coating take longer, often three-plus hours depending on the package and the condition of the paint — we'll give you a time estimate when you book.

Why does my car dry without water spots?

Austin tap water carries roughly 250 PPM of dissolved minerals, which is what leaves spotting after a regular wash or rain. We rinse with lab-grade RO/DI water filtered to 0 PPM, so there's nothing left in the water to dry into a spot.

What's the actual difference between a Maintenance Detail and a Full Detail?

Maintenance Detail is the quick refresh — exterior wash plus an interior wipe-down and vacuum — for a car that's already in decent shape. Full Detail is the deeper service: a steam-cleaned interior, leather conditioning, glass and door jambs, and a paint sealant. If it's been a few months since your last detail, start with Full Detail.

Is ceramic coating actually worth it in Texas?

In a climate with this much UV and summer heat, yes — a ceramic coating makes the paint noticeably easier to keep clean and adds real UV and oxidation protection. See the Paint Correction page for exactly what's included at each tier.

Do you do anything specific for Tesla, BMW, Mercedes, or Porsche owners?

Yes. European and electric vehicles have their own quirks — Tesla's soft clear coat and large glass roof, German luxury brands' softer OEM clear coats and premium leather or Alcantara interiors — so we built dedicated pages on what we do differently for each: Tesla detailing and BMW / Mercedes / Porsche detailing.

What areas do you actually serve?

Based in Bee Cave, covering the greater Austin metro — Lakeway, Spicewood, Steiner Ranch, West Lake Hills, Barton Creek, Cedar Park, Round Rock, Leander, Georgetown, Pflugerville, Dripping Springs, Buda, Kyle, Oak Hill, Manor, San Marcos, and the neighborhoods in between. If you're close to this list but not sure, just call or text — (512) 855-3447.

What happens if it rains on the day of my appointment?

Call or text us and we'll reschedule — no charge, no hassle. We'd rather move the appointment than detail a car in the rain.

Can I get a detail every month instead of booking one-off?

Yes — the Club Membership gets you one detail a month at a locked-in member rate, starting from $99.99/month for a coupe or sedan, with the option to upgrade any visit to a Full Detail for an extra $40. Cancel anytime, no contract.

How do I know you're actually any good?
