Car Detail, Protection, Restoration & Ceramic Coating - One standard of care.
Every auto service is conducted with the same care regardless of year, make or model. We have one goal, flawless Service that exceeds your expectations.
Detailing
Interior and exterior care that goes beyond a wash — cleaned, restored and preserved with real attention to materials.
Paint Correction
Machine polishing that levels the clear coat, removing swirl marks and light defects to restore genuine clarity.
Vehicle Protection
Ceramic coating and paint protection film — two different tools for two different jobs, applied with precision.
Window Tinting
Heat rejection, UV reduction and a cleaner finish, installed within Alberta's tint regulations.
Gravel, salt and Chinooks are hard on a daily driver.
Deerfoot and Stoney Trail commuting means real rock-chip exposure. Winter brine and freeze-thaw cycles stress paint that's already nicked. UV and dry summers fade what isn't protected. None of that is hypothetical here — it's what we look at on every vehicle that comes through the door.

After
BeforePaint Correction - where clean isn't the finish line.
Swirl marks and light scratches live in the clear coat, not on top of it. Correction levels the surface back down to the depth of the damage — restoring the kind of clarity a wash alone can't touch.
Explore Paint CorrectionCeramic Coating or PPF? Two different tools. Two different jobs.
Ceramic coating and PPF both protect your vehicle — but they solve different problems, and we're upfront about which one you actually need.
Ceramic Coating
A hard, glossy, hydrophobic layer that resists contamination and UV fade, and makes ongoing washing significantly easier. Available in 2-year and 5-year packages.
Explore Ceramic Coating
Paint Protection Film
A physical urethane film that absorbs rock chips and road debris impact on your highest-exposure panels — hood, bumper, fenders and mirrors. Backed by a 10-year installation warranty.

Ceramic coating vs. PPF — which one do I need?
Ceramic coating protects gloss, UV resistance and ease of cleaning. PPF (paint protection film) is a physical layer that absorbs rock chips and road debris impact. They solve different problems and are often used together.

Detailing packages are priced up front by vehicle size. PPF, ceramic coating and correction depend on paint condition and coverage, so we quote those after a quick look or a few photos — never a mystery number at pickup.

You don't need to choose up front. Book your service and ServiceVIN will guide you to the right studio — 46 Ave handles the full lineup including PPF, ceramic and tint, while 36 Ave focuses on fast, dependable detailing.
