I had two cars washed by Guillermo/Nova Spa (and his partner/helper, whose name I don't know) for…read morethe first time, and both ended up damaged in the process. Guillermo won't own up to either. One car is only 4 months old and was being washed for the first time. It ended up with a ding on the trunk, most likely from the end of a hose or something else hard being knocked against it. The other has a large scratch across the passenger door handle, which Guillermo informed me "looks like nails scratches." Even setting aside the damage, the cars simply were not cleaned well. There were spots and smudges all over one car, and an obvious spill on the center console of the other was left untouched. Needless to say, I won't be using him again. I wouldn't trust Guillermo to wash a bicycle again, let alone a car. If you care about your cars, I suggest you stay away from him as well. Edit to respond to the lying business owner: I do know for sure, and I'm helping people avoid what happened to me. Own up to your mistake if you don't want me to tell people to stay away from you. I wouldn't have a problem with you if you took responsibility.

David and his team are GENIUSES. Seriously, they are the Rhodes Scholar of auto detailing…read more My 2007 Saab was really bad. I hadn't had a detail in a decade and it was just filthy inside and out. It's a NEW car, minus the dent I need to have vacuumed or sucked out and the driver's seat. Saab leather cracks sooner than other brands. My Nissan Pathfinder LE (1998) lasted much longer. I took a video but will get pictures later and upload to phone. I cannot believe the ceiling. Like no one ever smoked! It's shiny, shiny, shiny. They did the interior and exterior, plus engine. Elite detailing isn't cheap but if , like me, you paid cash for your used car and have no payments, who cares? It's like a couple months car payment or so. Do yourself a favor and call for a quote. The website has no prices but they also do ceramic coating, with several tiers of packages. You can do a mini-detail or just regular car wash but if you leave the car with them for a day, they will give you a NEW CAR back at the day's end. I'm still on Cloud 9. Floating! Every time I see my baby, I smile! PS. THE SB INDEPENDENT BEST OF LIST IS HORRIBLE. The best acupuncturist, not just in SB but California, is Anthony Kar. He's probably the best in America. He wasn't on the list. My friend, Evan Schoolnik Berger, has a food tour company that didn't make the list. My chiropractor and gym made it. Barry Family Chiro and SBAC/SWELL are the best in town. But David's shop should have made the list.

I can't say enough great things about Sunshine Auto Spa in Santa Barbara -- especially David! I was…read morevisiting from out of town when I accidentally scratched my rental car. I was stressed and looking for help when I happened to drive by Sunshine Auto Spa around 6:30 PM -- well after their normal closing time -- and saw them still hard at work. I stopped in and spoke to David, and he immediately stepped in to help me out. Not only did he take the time to assess the damage, but he and his team also went above and beyond by staying late to remove the scratches and also for the paintwork -- all on the spot, the same evening. I honestly couldn't believe how accommodating, professional, and kind they were. The work they did was flawless -- my rental looked like nothing had ever happened. And to top it off, the price was incredibly reasonable. It's rare to find service this good and people who genuinely care about helping others. Thank you again, David and team, for turning a stressful situation into such a positive experience.

A great job, with very friendly and personal service. If I could rate his business 10 stars, I would do it.

I called Apex Auto Glass to describe my issues and they confirmed they did tint homes and made me an appt for an estimate, and worked with my crazy schedule without an issue! I was send confirmation and reminders leading up to the appt which was very helpful. I was also given a window for arrival time that was convenient and reasonable. Anthony called to say he would be arriving in 45 minutes and he was actually early!! (Love this so much) Prior to his arrival I had tried to peel off some of the film and removed TWO LAYERS OF TINT‍ and there was still more layers of tint completely covering the windows. Anthony assured me that removing the tint would be no problem. He was SO KNOWLEDGEABLE and helpful with the situation. We had VERY old auto tint on the windows. He walked me through my options after examining and measuring each window. I was worried and unsure, and so he left me with the two samples he saw working best for my situation-this way hubby could also weigh in when he was home. Anthony was polite, professional, and super nice!! We made the appt right there for removal and installation. As soon as Anthony arrived back to the office he mailed me the estimate, which was extremely reasonable!! Right before the appt I had some trepidation about my choices, and I called the office. Anthony called me right back and talked to me about what results I wanted and how these would work out for me. I am now feeling awesome about the job. Yay! Anthony and Angel arrived right on time, and got right to work. In a nutshell they rocked it!! The windows actually had TWO more layers of window tint that was very old and required a LOT of scraping and patience. Hubby and I were outside working and you can tell that these two enjoyed working together. They're so nice to each other and they made really quick work of the removal and I can tell you it looked like a nightmare to get off. But not a cranky comment from Anthony and Angel!! These guys were amazing!! We learned Angel is the automotive tint expert and if I ever need my car tinted he is definitely my guy!! With Anthonys expertise and experience we were in SUCH GOOD HANDS!! The guys finished and cleaned up absolute every teeny piece of the crummy old tint. I was super impressed!! And it already felt cooler inside the house!! Previously with hot weather we would have the window blinds shut, heavy curtains closed, and the ac cranked. I can confidently say that with hot weather we don't have to close the house up like a tomb. We DON'T EVEN HAVE TO CLOSE THE BLINDS!! The difference is mind blowing!! We are already planning on doing this tint on windows in some other rooms. If you are looking for stellar service, professional work, and knowledgeable technicians, then look no further than Apex. I was a pain in the bootie cuz I didn't know what I needed and Apex came through with everything I needed for this job and we could NOT be happier with the finished work. 10/5 for Apex, and especially Anthony, and Angel!! Knowing that the tint job has a lifetime warranty is just icing on the cake!!
