Answers before you book
Most-asked questions about our mobile car detailing in Montgomery, AL, pricing, timing, process, payment, aftercare and more.
Do you come to me?
Yes. Super Shiny is a fully mobile detailing service. We bring water, power, and professional-grade equipment to your home, office, or apartment anywhere in Montgomery, Hope Hull, Pike Road, Prattville, Wetumpka, and Millbrook, AL.
How much does a full detail cost in Montgomery, AL?
A full interior plus exterior detail starts at $199 for a sedan and scales by vehicle size and condition. Ceramic coating packages start at $599 and paint correction at $349. Call us with the year, make and model and we’ll give you an exact, all-in price.
How long does a detail take?
An express detail takes 1–2 hours. A standard full detail usually takes 3–5 hours. Paint correction and ceramic coating jobs are scheduled as a half-day to two-day appointment depending on the vehicle’s condition.
Do you detail exotic and luxury vehicles?
Absolutely. We regularly detail Porsche, Lamborghini, Bentley, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Tesla vehicles for clients across Central Alabama using only pH-balanced, paint-safe chemistry and microfiber-only contact.
How long does ceramic coating last in Alabama’s climate?
2 to 5 years depending on the package tier, sun exposure, and how the vehicle is washed between maintenance appointments. Annual decon & booster appointments extend the life of any coating.
What does ceramic coating include?
A thorough wash, iron and tar decontamination, clay bar treatment, single-stage paint correction, IPA panel wipe, and a professional-grade ceramic coating with up to 5 years of hydrophobic protection. See ceramic coating for full details.
Can paint correction fix scratches?
It can remove the vast majority of swirl marks, light scratches, water spots and oxidation by leveling the clear coat with machine polishing. Deep scratches that catch a fingernail go through the clear coat and need touch-up paint or paint protection film instead.
Do I need to provide water or electricity?
Not unless you want to. Our service van carries an onboard water tank and a generator for fully mobile operation. We’ll happily use your hose and outlet if it’s convenient, but we don’t require it.
What forms of payment do you accept?
Cash, all major credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Zelle and CashApp. We send a digital receipt by text after the appointment.
Do I need to be home during the detail?
No. Many clients leave a key in a mailbox or trunk and we send before/after photos when we finish. Just confirm the drop-off plan when you book.
How often should I detail my car?
For daily drivers we recommend an interior detail every 3 months and an exterior detail every 4–6 weeks. Ceramic-coated vehicles can stretch maintenance washes to every 2–3 weeks while staying showroom-ready.
Do you offer fleet or recurring programs?
Yes. We run weekly, bi-weekly and monthly programs for small-business fleets, dealerships, and rideshare drivers. See fleet detailing or call for a custom proposal.
What if it rains the day of my appointment?
We monitor the radar and reach out the morning of if weather looks marginal. Most details continue under canopies or in garages; ceramic coatings always reschedule to a dry day for proper bonding.
Do you do paint protection film (PPF)?
Not in-house, but we partner with a trusted PPF installer in Montgomery for clear-bra and full-vehicle wraps. Call and we’ll route you to the right shop.
Can you remove smoke or pet odors?
Yes. Enzyme treatments handle most pet and food odors; ozone shock treatment handles smoke and persistent biological smells. Both are add-ons to the interior detail.
Do you offer gift cards?
Yes. Detail gift cards in any amount, perfect for birthdays, Father’s Day or that one friend who has a black car and doesn’t know what swirl marks are. Call to order.
