    I recently brought my car in for a ceramic coating and everything looked incredible - even better than I expected. They even surprised me with a free interior detail. When I picked up my car, it was spotless, gleaming under the moonlight like something out of a commercial. About a week later, I noticed a few minor fallout spots that had accidentally been coated over. On Oahu, this is usually the point where businesses dodge calls, shift blame, or disappear altogether. But not Pristine Automotive Detailing. I emailed the owner, Joe, and he personally called me within an hour. No excuses, no runaround - just genuine concern and a plan to make things right. The only day I could come in was Thanksgiving, and to my surprise, Joe was working, completely on his own, taking care of a few customers. He greeted me with the same professionalism as he did over phone, walked around my vehicle, and got straight to work. He corrected the missed spots and recoated everything flawlessly - finishing just in time for me to make it to Thanksgiving dinner. Some might say, "Lots of businesses stay open on holidays," but this was different. This is not a large corporation with rotating staff. This was the owner - choosing to give up part of (if not all of) his holiday to make sure a customer felt valued. That level of dedication is rare. You can tell Joe built this company from the ground up (most likely doing mobile detailing) and carries a deep pride in keeping both his work and his reputation truly pristine. My experience with Pristine Automotive Detailing has been unlike anything I've had with any business on Oahu. Joe's integrity, work ethic, and genuine care for his customers set a high standard that other detailing companies do not come close to. I can't recommend his services enough. If you need a detail or a ceramic coating, Pristine Automotive Detailing is the place to go - not just for outstanding results, but for a level of professionalism and heart that's truly pristine. Thank you Joe. Best, Gavin Jones

    Was it cleaner than when i dropped it off yesterday ...Yes but to me they didn't detail the car thoroughly. There was still dirt between the seats, in the middle console and under my seat covers. They are extremely quick I will give them that. UPDATE: Someone gave me a call. I appreciate managements efforts to retouch up the car .

    I had very bad water spots on my entire vehicle. Decided to go with Pristine Automotive Detailing. Called and spoke to Joe, sent him pictures and he was very informative and straight up honest. Explained to me what would be best for my vehicle and that he couldn't promise a 100% that the water spots would go away but that they would do their best. And let me tell you they sure did!!!! My baby is looking brand spankin newShe has no visible water spots and she's sparkling all around. The guys did an amazing job with her. I am an extremely satisfied customer for sure. Much Mahalo to the team and I'll be coming back for more services.

    Nick did an absolute fabulous job in detailing my filthy 2020 Ford Ranger...I highly recommend Pristine's services. Their prices are very reasonable when you consider the caliber of work they perform!

    I've taken our 2010 Honda Fit and 2012 MINI Cooper Countryman to Pristine Automotive Detailing both for a complete interior and exterior detail. For a great price, they did an amazing job which included a detail of the engine bay and headlight restoration. I also opted for the 3-year ceramic coating for the MINI. I would recommend Nick and others who work at Pristine Automotive Detailing. In the future I will come back for any detailing needs.

    Flawless wash, wax and detailing!

    See all

    This place is great! I had been a die-hard McKinley's girl forever, but since my new car has…read moreceramic coating it's recommended to use touch-less washes, so here we are! Great location (just a few blocks from McKinleys) on Ward, on the side street across Ward from the Patagonia store. The lot is small, only fits 4 or 5 cars in driveway - but I've never had to wait more than 5 minutes to get started. (I used the time to gather up all my junk so they could thoroughly clean the interior). Service absolutely is fantastic. You drive yourself into the washing bay under the direction of the service guy. Then you back out and park under the sunshades so the team can hand dry the exterior and all door jams, AND then thoroughly vacuum out the interior. They ask you to step out at sit at provided table (under shade) or pay for service while they're doing all that. There's a service charge for using credit card that is waived if you pay cash. (SUV $29+tax) A tip box is provided on the wall - fill that baby up because these folks are so deserving! Bottom line - excellent service, location, price, and so quick and easy!

I'm looking for hand wash so I call and the person who answers says "Oh just bring it by, if it's not a detail you can just pull up" So I pull up. The guy then says "Oh you need an appointment" I said oh the guy just called said I didn't need an appointment to pull up.. then he says " oh, that was me." Then he tells me to wait and says he probably won't have time for it today if I can come back tomorrow. So I said what time? Then he says 12. I said how long does it take? He said 45- 1 hr. I said OK that works if I can get out because I have a doctor appointment at 1:20pm. Then he said " oh, just bring it by after" so I said what time? Then he says " or maybe on Saturday" I'm like huh?? I said I'm trying to get a car wash today or tomorrow then he says " oh, you can just go McKinley then." I'm not usually a complainer, but the whole interaction was just so irritating and the person I was interacting with just gave off IDGAF vibes, puffing on his vape and then just telling me to go somewhere else. Bummers because location wise they were convenient and if service was good I would have been a repeat customer.

They were the number one company with 5 star reviews in the area, so I had to go with them. I gave them a call and, luckily, they had openings toward the end of the week. I signed up for their most popular package, which was a full interior and exterior detail complete with ceramic coat. The price was very reasonable! I didn't even realize that they were a mobile detail service until Elisiah explained it to me over the phone. Even better! Friday rolled around and the weather looked like it might pour. Thankfully, Elisiah came prepared with a tent in case there was a downpour. Elisiah and his buddy showed up promptly at 9am and worked their tails off all day, all while I sat in the comfort of my home. After a few hours, they called me out to check out their work. They did such an amazing job! They made it look brand new! I was extremely pleased with their meticulous attention to detail. In fact, their work caught the eye of my neighbor across the street and he decided to book a session with them too! What surprised me the most was how young they were. Both of them were just out of high school. I had no idea. They both were extremely professional and respectful. Pure gentlemen. I will definitely be recommending their company to all of my family and friends. I wish their company all the success in the world!

    Five stars. Highly recommended…read more I was looking for a detailing company that had great reviews and being mobile was a plus. I ran across, "Keep It Wet Auto Detail" on Yelp and after reading the positive reviews and looking at the photos, I was sold. I contacted the owner and received a prompt response. The detailing package that I needed was perfect for the used car that I had just acquired, which covered both the interior cabin area and exterior. A great value indeed. After scheduling my appointment for later in the week, Elijah arrived at my home and did a superb job on my car, a night and day difference! All in all, again, I highly recommend, "Keep It Wet Auto Detail" for your car care needs. Mahalo nui loa!

    NEWEST UPDATE: Aloha folks -- i've updated my review as…read morethere has been some progress. Greg reached out to me explaining that based on the video I sent, it appeared that the ceramic coating was working, but not how it should be. He asked if I could bring the vehicle in so that his team could wash it, and verify this in person. We agreed that I would drop my vehicle off on Friday. This will allow for a pickup on Saturday. Upon drop off, his guys, Zane and Kato accepted the vehicle and tested the ceramic. Right away, Zane said that it wasn't reacting correctly. I left my keys with them and was told that the vehicle would be ready for pickup the following day and I would be notified by call or text. Saturday -- Premiere is open until 6pm. Once 5pm came around I was admittedly starting to get a little bit nervous seeing as how I needed my car for work on Monday, and I knew they were closed on Sunday. I attempted to call and received no response. Living closeby, I just decided to head over. I got there about 540pm. Greg was there detailing the interior of a car. He had plenty of vehicles to take care of. He was friendly and apologized for the lack of communication, citing that he was swamped with the influx of vehicles. He explained that my car was "done" but that he, himself, had taken issue with it. When we approached my car, it was clear that work had been done. But upon closer inspection, there were water spots on my glass and streak marks on areas, exacerbated by the light from his cell phone flashlight. He was able to quickly wipe some of them off. He again apologized and said that he didn't like the work that was done and asked if he could keep my vehicle until Tuesday so that it could be completely redone. This I respect. Alot. For a boss to take ownership of their work and the work of their employees goes a long way. I left it -- picked it up on Tuesday. The car looks fantastic. Here's to waiting it out and see if the ceramic holds this time around. Very glad that I chose the boys at Premiere. Will update in a week :) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aloha all! Second time using the boys at Premiere Island Auto Detail. They did an amazing job on my camaro, that I felt it only right to use them for our SUV. My last interactions with Greg (the owner) and his team were nothing short of amazing. He is a personably guy. I reached out to them asking for an interior and exterior detail on my 2023 Mazda CX50. After some back and forth on the services, I ended up changing my service to a "basic" ceramic coating (which includes an exterior detail to prep it) and full interior detail. The price was amazing. Greg takes care of his customers. I wont mention it here as pricing can always change. As a reminder to anyone reading this -- its always a nice gesture to tip them, though, not required. Greg was able to take my car pretty quickly. I made the appointment for a drop off on Saturday. For those of you that don't know, ceramic coatings require a curing time, and therefore, I needed to leave my vehicle overnight. The garage is secure and under surveillance. It is easily accessible in the downtown area. I came back the next morning to pickup my car. It looked stellar! The lighting really makes the cars pop too. The exterior looked brand new (minus water spots that apparently weren't able to be removed from the 3m decals). The interior also looked great. I had some minor pet fur still embedded, but nothing to harp about. I noticed that the trunk space wasn't addressed though. No biggie. Now the reason for my decrease in rating: I want to start off by reiterating that Greg and his team are excellent dudes to work with. They are friendly, fast, and do good work. My Mazda, this time around, just isn't what I expected from them. I haven't been able to get back for the car wash because the weather has been awful -- so its been a little bit of time since the coating. There are some spots where the ceramic is noticeable. Particularly under the side mirrors, you can see the coating is still there and streaked on. The new formula that they used on this "basic" coating, definitely shows a difference. Maybe this coating only included one pass over, i'm not sure, but the beading effect just isn't there. Dirt and grime still clings to the car and it doesn't wash off with water. The roof doesnt appear to have been coated, but I could be wrong. The wheels were not coated. I am unsure if the glass was coated. The trim appears to have been coated but not wiped off properly. Anyway, do I recommend them? Absolutely. I still think they do good work at a great price. However, I would strongly encourage you to ask about their options for ceramic coating and not get a lesser package. Mahalo Premiere

    I cannot say enough incredible things about Premier Island Auto Detail and Greg…read more I first met Greg during a very special (and stressful) time in my life--just one week before giving birth. I needed my car to be immaculately clean, and what he delivered completely exceeded every expectation. When I picked up my car, I was honestly in awe. It looked and felt brand new. What truly stood out, though, wasn't just the quality of his work--it was him. My family was with me, and Greg treated all of us with such genuine kindness, respect, and aloha. That moment has stayed with me ever since. He is truly one of those rare, good-hearted people you don't forget. Fast forward to recently--I had what I thought was a total nightmare situation. After a fishing day with my family, squid juice spilled into my car and soaked into the carpet. The smell was awful. No matter what I tried, it wouldn't go away, and I genuinely thought my car was permanently ruined. Of course, I reached out to Greg--and once again, he worked his magic. Not only did he completely remove the odor, but my car now smells (and feels) brand new again. I honestly don't know how he does it, but his attention to detail, work ethic, and level of care are unmatched. Greg is the only person I trust with my car. I recommend Premier Island Auto Detail to everyone--my friends, my clients, my family--because when you find someone this genuine and this talented, you don't keep it to yourself. Thank you infinitely, Greg. Your work and your spirit truly make a difference.
