Does AR Auto Detailing offer System X ceramic coatings?+
Yes. AR Auto Detailing proudly offers System X Ceramic Coatings with protection options ranging from 3 years to lifetime, including CARFAX registration for added value and documentation. Contact us for a free quote — pricing varies by vehicle size, condition, and tier.
Does ceramic coating actually go on CARFAX?+
Yes. When AR Auto Detailing applies a System X ceramic coating, the work is registered with System X and reported to CARFAX — it shows up on your vehicle’s history report, adding documented protection that travels with the vehicle at resale.
What does a Complete Detail include?+
Our Complete Detail is a top-to-bottom interior + exterior reset. From deep interior cleaning and careful surface treatment to a thorough exterior detail that elevates gloss and clarity. It’s the signature service for owners who want their vehicle to look, feel, and present at a higher standard. Contact us for a quote.
What’s the difference between Clay & Seal and Clay & System X Renew?+
Both start with a thorough exterior cleaning and clay bar decontamination. Clay & Seal ($180 starting) finishes with a high-quality paint sealant for months of protection. Clay & System X Renew ($220 starting) finishes with System X Renew, a ceramic-based protection layer that adds gloss and longer-lasting easier maintenance.
Do you offer paint correction?+
Yes. Paint correction is part of our process for ceramic coating applications and is also available as part of a Complete Detail. Adan completed three-day professional training in Los Angeles focused on vehicle preparation, paint correction, and ceramic coating application.
What does the "starting at" price mean?+
The prices listed are starting prices and will increase based on the size and condition of the vehicle. Larger vehicles, heavily soiled interiors, or vehicles needing extra correction work cost more — we always quote the final price up front before any work begins.
Are you walk-in or appointment only?+
AR Auto Detailing operates by appointment only. Please call (641) 691-8452 or book online so we can plan the time and the right setup for your vehicle.
Where is AR Auto Detailing located?+
AR Auto Detailing is at 1104 West Lincolnway, Marshalltown, Iowa 50158. Phone (641) 691-8452.
Do you detail RVs, campers, boats, semi-trucks, or farm equipment?+
Yes. We detail cars, trucks, SUVs, RVs and campers, boats, semi-trucks, and tractors and farm equipment. The same LA-trained process scales — whether it’s a daily driver, a Class A motorhome, a fishing boat, or a combine that needs to look right when it goes back to the field. Pricing is by size and condition; call (641) 691-8452 for a quote on anything larger than a standard vehicle.
