    Luis takes care of my cars and I wouldn't bother seeking out any alternative. He is the best detailer I have worked with and offers competitive rates across the different packages. I wish there was two of Luis as a clone so I could have him help me out in LA when I'm driving around up there too. If you're looking to build a relationship with a new detailer and are reading this review right now - seriously just book with Luis, you've found the best in the biz on this Yelp page right here.

    This review is over due for Luis. He has been the best detailer I've come across in this industry. Hes very friendly and great at communicating with me for what I want done on my vehicles. He takes his time and doesn't want to rush anything. He always fits a time with my busy schedule. And is also very understanding if I have cancel last minute. Very happy to have him work on my cars and you will be satisfied as well.

    Outstanding job with full auto detail. My neighbor recommended Luis so I used his services and boy am I glad. Luis is so meticulous and takes great pride in his work. He spent an entire day working on my car which was in pretty sad shape. But it was totally transformed like a new car!! He does high quality work with quality products. No short cuts. Hire him! You won't be disappointed, in fact, you will be amazed. I'm very picky and was very impressed. In fact, I'm going to have him do my other cars! Great service, high quality work, great value! He totally transformed my car from really filthy to pristine new!!

    Luis did an outstanding job. Car has not looked this good since I purchased it over 6 years ago. I did not realize how much money I was throwing away in the past when I paid for car details from other companies until I used this service and absolutely got my money's worth. The quality is excellent. Very professional and experienced. Takes his time to ensure the vehicle is cared for. I will only use his services moving forward

    I've had many mobile detailers come to clean my Aston Martin Vantage. However, no one has been able to make it shine the same way that Luis did! He takes a little longer than my previous detailers due to his attention to detail, but it so paid off in the end. Just look at the end results!

    Luis is an amazing detailer. He details my car and motorcycles. He is professionally trained and certified- HUGE BONUS! His prices are outstanding, i will never go elsewhere.

    Ceramic Coating

    Luis provides high quality of work and is dependable. He responded promptly to my questions and fit me in his schedule right away. He pays exceptional attention to detail. I highly recommend Luis if you need ceramic coating or detailing. Worth every penny.

    Clean cars

    If you want your car to look better than the day it was delivered to the dealership, hire LM7 Car Studio. Luis came highly recommended in the exotic and sports car world but he can (and will) make any car look incredible. I look forward to each service because the car looks brand new. It's the best treat you can give yourself and others around you. A very, very clean car.

    The finished job

    Went with LM7 to do a graphene ceramic coating for my new car. They're very responsive with my questions and we quickly scheduled a day to do paint correction, surface prep, and the coating. My car is brand new so although it has a minimal number of scratches, I wanted to have those removed anyways. They did a great job buffing out virtually all the scratches and polished the paint so that the finish looks better than what came out of the factory. This is all before applying the coating! Finally after applying the coating the paint on my car is so smooth and glossy it looks like it's "wet." My car looks newer than when it was "new" when I bought it. Although LM7 does not have a lot of Yelp reviews at the moment it does not mean they're not experienced as they were previously an in-house detailer for a luxury car dealership.

    My XB after Luis did his magic

    I'm genuinely disappointed to be writing this review because I previously trusted this company…read moreafter having a great experience with my first vehicle. When I purchased a new car, I immediately came back for a full front PPF and ceramic coating package. I was quoted a 2-day turnaround and promised regular updates, but communication quickly became inconsistent. After multiple delays, excuses, and missed deadlines, responsibility for my vehicle was passed between employees without clear communication. I was eventually offered a complimentary full-body PPF for the inconvenience, but despite agreeing on several deadlines, the work was never completed. One employee completely stopped responding to my calls and texts, and I later found out he was no longer with the company without my knowledge. At this point, my vehicle still does not have the promised PPF installed, the interior ceramic coating was never done, and the exterior ceramic coating wasn't even completed properly. The lack of communication, accountability, and professionalism throughout this process has completely destroyed my trust in the company. I'm honestly at a loss for words. UPDATE: Danny eventually got back in contact with me and finally completed the PPF work on my vehicle. Unfortunately, the quality of the install was terrible. I brought the car to multiple reputable PPF shops for inspection and received the same feedback from every single one. Several shops told me it was one of the worst PPF installations they had seen. They also pointed out that my clear coat is now lifting, and warned me that removing the PPF from my bumper will very likely peel the paint completely off, meaning I may now need to have my bumper repainted. After everything I went through with the delays, broken promises, lack of communication, and being completely ghosted, I'm now potentially dealing with paint damage caused by the improper installation itself. I have completely lost trust in this company and am extremely disappointed with how this entire situation was handled. I asked for a refund and he is purposely ignoring my messages, I don't think he realizes that I can see when he reads my messages. DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR TO THIS COMPANY PLEASE!!!

Where things started to slip was on the pickup side. I was told the car was ready, but still ended up waiting about 30-40 minutes before actually getting it. At checkout, I was also surprised to see a tip screen with suggested amounts that felt pretty high given the service. I ended up leaving a small tip, but the experience itself didn't really match that level of expectation. I also would have appreciated a quick walkthrough of the work that was done--especially at that price point--but it was more of a quick handoff of the keys. I came back for the 10-day follow-up and made a point to ask about timing ahead of time. I was told it would take about an hour. I arrived early, but after an hour the car hadn't been touched yet, and there wasn't any update unless I asked. That part was frustrating. So, they ended up rushing my 10-day follow-up inspection. Gave the car a quick rinse and handed me the keys. What was the point of driving down from Carlsbad??? Over 3 hours wasted. For comparison, I had a great experience at their Kearny Mesa location previously, so I know what they're capable of. This location is stretched thin, which seemed to impact communication and overall service. I was not the only customer in the lobby feeling this way. Given the type of clientele they're working with and the pricing, I was expecting a bit more consistency and attention to detail. Their follow-up consisted of more sales pitches of coupons for services I already had done. Would have been nice to have the discounts PRIOR to the work! I planned on using the wash program and mentioned to Jasmine my poor service experience. Think there was follow-up? Nada. So, thumbs "kind of" up for Ceramic Pro but thumbs down for this location. Overall, I think the company itself does good work, and have used the Kearny Mesa location in the past several times with excellent success!! I would not choose this location again.

There are too many other choices in San Diego County and this one needs to be avoided. It all starts with first impressions as a new customer. Even though the online booking time was convenient, the manager, Alex, clearly does not care about your business. There is a "comments" box in the online booking process that was completely ignored with my question. The detailer was late to my appointment. Time means money and they don't care about wasting your time. The work vehicle was trashed when it showed up. Dents all over the place, door molding hanging outside the door. Invest some money and take all those dents out. It gives a bad look like they don't care. Before the work was started I was verbally told it would be an extra $45 for all of the work with some stubborn stains. Okay I understood, the car's interior was quite dirty. After working four hours on the car, the stains are still there. None of the ones on the seats and the carpet floor were removed. He tried was his answer and then asked me how long have I had the car. How is that relevant for the work performed? It is none of their business. Training is an issue obviously. On their website they claim "superior customer experience." Not so much. "Real time updates" during the four hours did not happen once. "Follow up care with maintenance recommendations" was non existent. The recommendations given was to keep the windows down because it still was wet inside. They couldn't dry the vehicle first? Yeah keep the windows down so all the dust flies in - so smart of them. At the end of the appointment I requested an invoice for their work. No was their answer but if you pay by credit card and pay the 4%+ surcharge, we can do it for you. What? That makes no sense. Their other payment options are cash, Venmo or Zelle. For a company that is detailer certified I am disappointed. Yes they are certified - certified waste of time. Take your business elsewhere.
