Devon L., 2014 Audi S4, 2014 Lexus IS350-F:
“When I picked up a new ’14 IS350 F the paint was in fairly good condition from the dealership, they had prepped it decently when it was brought in but you could still see a few areas where some swirl marks had occurred and I also wanted to ensure the paint had a good protective coating on it. Pinnacle Auto was recommended to me so I reached out and inquired about having the car detailed and sealed with CQuartz. Mike was willing to detail it at my office, unfortunately there was no easy spot to do it there, so he came to my house on a weekend and set to work. Needless to say, the car looked phenomenal. I was blown away when he was finished.
Now when I picked up a new S4 a few months later, the paint was in rough shape from any salesman in the showroom hitting it with whichever rag they could find. Swirl marks everywhere, it was a mess. I gave Mike a call again and brought the car to his garage. After a full day of work on the car it was looking impeccable – how it should have left Audi looking. Whether it’s a Ferrari, Audi or anything else that needs detailing, Mike’s attention to detail is astounding. If you’re in Connecticut, or anywhere in the New England area and are in need of a detailer I’d completely recommend Mike at Pinnacle Auto Detail, his work is top notch, prices are fantastic and he was always responsive when setting up a time to detail either of my cars. Whenever another vehicle does happen to come into the picture, it’ll be off to Mike for a proper detailing.”
Benjamin R, 2004 Mazda RX-8 :
“Mike came over to detail my wife’s car as a last minute surprise gift. He spent 6 hours in 90 degree heat making her RX-8 shine like new. He continued working even as it got dark to ensure the job was completed to his high standards. He was very professional, courteous, and answered my questions with the confidence that spoke to his many years of experience. His price wasn’t cheap, but great quality work never is – you get what you pay for! He even restored the RX-8’d headlights and guaranteed them for a year, saying he would do them again for free if they got cloudy again in that time. Mike is a professional that stands behind his work. Hire him and you won’t be disappointed.”
Jim R, 2013 Corvette Grand Sport:
“I had a full paint correction 6/28/17 as well as a 22ple coating application to my Corvette. Mike is a true professional and is so dedicated to his craft. His attention to detail is second to none! I highly recommend him for all your detailing needs, from the simplest to the most difficult paint correction Pinnacle has you covered. Thanks Mike!”
Zack S, 1999 Ford F-350:
“Mike does amazing work. My truck had the worst scratches and the paint felt like sandpaper. By the time he was done the truck looked and felt like a sheet of glass, he didn’t miss one spot and did the roof to the same standard as the rest of the vehicle. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who is going to detail their vehicle 100% and not cut any corners. Great experience thanks Mike!”
Dennis C, 2017 Dodge Challenger SRT:
“Mike is a true professional and perfectionist from start to finish. My new Dodge Challenger Scat-Pack in Destroyer Grey had 1 step paint correction and 22ple applied. The results are exceptional and flawless. Mike came to my home in his mobile detailing truck and all the work was done in my garage. He even brings his own heat to make sure optimal conditions are met when the weather outside is not optimal. Below is the finished product.
Thank you,
Dennis”
Steve F, 1956 Buick Special:
“Thank you for the wonderful job you did on our car. Best of Show trophies were numerous this car show season. Look forward to the spring and a complete cleaning. Have a great holiday.”
Mike F, 2012 Subaru Legacy Limited:
“Mike has detailed several cars for my family and I. Each time the car looks like it’s brand new both inside and out. He is very knowledgeable and professional, and does great work. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone.”
Laura R, 2017 Audi A4:
“Mike did an awesome job on my car even though it was a horrible, rainy day. My car looks great, and he was very conscientious. It wasn’t cheap, but it was worth every penny. He was at my house for almost 5 hours and is self contained in his van (see picture). Will definitely call him again!”
Joe I, 2015 Volkwagon GTI:
“In Spring of 2018, I set up an appointment with Mike at Pinnacle Auto Detail to come out to my residence and perform an interior detail and cleaning, exterior enhancement detail, one step paint correction, and a ceramic coating on my car. At that point in time, my Volkswagen GTI was 4 years old and starting to show it. The white paint had swirls and light scratches from washing and normal use, built up contamination, and it was becoming a chore to wash on a regular basis due to how much dirt and grime was sticking to the paint. In addition, the interior was neglected, with dust, dirt, and hair littering the various surfaces. I was getting fed up with the state of my car.
Though I’m not a stranger to buffing, waxing, and otherwise maintaining my car, I decided I wanted a professional to handle it this time to really make the car pop. I started researching my options in the market, and was pretty picky; I’m very wary of letting other people work on my car. I wanted someone who would do a better job than I ever could, someone with extensive professional experience, someone with an eye for detail, and most of all, someone who would value the outcome of my car as much as I would. I absolutely got that with Mike.
After nearly two full days of work, Mike was done working on my car. The interior was completely spotless – quite literally, it was like new. The paint looked noticeably better than it did the day I brought the car home off the showroom floor, and that’s not an exaggeration. Four years of built up scratches, swirl marks, and paint contaminants were all gone. Paint defects the car had since day one of ownership were taken care of. The paint was discernibly glossier and brighter than I had ever seen it. The wheels were immaculately clean. Mike didn’t skip a single detail, and the car really showed it.
As mentioned, I also opted for the optional long-term coating (a glass coat / ceramic coat) in place of a typical wax or sealant, which has been a dream for maintenance. For anyone unfamiliar, these coatings are meant to be a roughly two-year replacement for waxing or sealing, with better results than either. So far, it has lived up to the billing. Nothing is sticking to my paint, and whether I wait one week or many between washes, everything comes right off in a much shorter amount of time than it used to. I highly recommend that add-on to help protect all the work that Mike does under it and really make it worth your money.
As a very picky consumer and dedicated “car guy”, I can’t recommend Mike and Pinnacle Auto Detail enough. I’m incredibly happy with the work he did to my car and genuinely look forward to using him in the future whenever I want my vehicles looking as good as they possibly can.”
