The highway commuter
Sixty miles a day on the toll road, front end sandblasted. Correction on the impact panels, then PPF on the bumper, hood, and mirrors, ceramic over the rest. The chips stop here.
Taurus Auto Detailing
Protection shop · South Austin, TX
We are a small shop in South Austin with one specialty: keeping Texas from eating your paint. Ceramic coatings, paint protection film, window tint, and the correction work that has to come first — done by people who measure before they polish.
Every job starts with an inspection under proper lights and a fixed written quote. If your car needs less than you asked for, we will tell you. A shop that oversells protection is a shop you cannot trust with your paint.
We are open Monday to Friday, 8:30 to 5:30, closed weekends. Call ahead — weekday slots go first.
The short version
Coating over damaged paint locks in the damage. So we inspect, we measure, we correct — and only then do we protect. It takes longer. It is the only way that works.
Pricing
$849 from / vehicle
Our signature: paint-depth readings, multi-stage correction, then ceramic coating hand-leveled over the corrected paint. The gloss comes from the polishing; the coating preserves it for years.
$499 from / vehicle
The commuter package: full window tint for heat and UV, plus a complete interior and exterior detail. A cooler car that feels new every time you get in.
From the bays
Sixty miles a day on the toll road, front end sandblasted. Correction on the impact panels, then PPF on the bumper, hood, and mirrors, ceramic over the rest. The chips stop here.
Black paint, parked outside, two Texas summers. Heavy oxidation, water spots etched in. Two-stage correction brought it back, coating locked it in, tint cut the cabin heat by a noticeable margin.
Bought it, drove it straight to us. Light polish to remove delivery marring, coating before the first Texas summer could touch it. The cheapest protection is the kind applied before damage exists.
