Q) How much experience do you have in the detailing business?

Before opening Arlington Auto Detailing in 1999, I owned Stripe-Rite which provided auto dealership services since 1983.

Q) How long do I need to leave my car?

Depending on the service and the size of the vehicle, 2-8 hours.

Q) Do you have a place where I can stay and wait?

My shop is small without a customer lounge, but it's a short walk to Belmont Center.

Q) Are you near the T?

Yes, there's a bus stop across the street that will take you to Alewife Station and another that takes you to Porter Square.

Q) What forms of payment do you accept?

Cash, check,  Visa, or Mastercard. 

Q) Can you remove scratches?

In some cases, scratches can be buffed out, but it really depends on the severity. So, I'm happy to take a look at the car and give you an honest evaluation.

Q) What is goldplating?

The process of plating 24 ct. gold onto your vehicles emblems or badges.

Any chrome or stainless steel can be goldplated right on your vehicle.

Q) Do I need to empty out my car?

I clean everything in your car: glovebox, cup holders, console, map pockets, so it is best to remove things you don't want thrown out. This could be done before you drop off your car or when you come in for your appointment.

Q) Can you remove odors like mildew, cigarette smell, etc.?

In most cases, odors can be removed permanently by using my ozone generator.

However, wet carpets could be an ongoing leak problem which would come back after it rains. The carpet could be saturated on the underside and would need to be replaced after the source of the leak is found.

Q) Can I drop off early or pick up late?

Yes. Ask when you call for your appointment.

E-mails are not checked until the end of each business day. Please feel free to call the shop for a faster response.
