San Diego Auto Detailing

Pacific Coast Auto Detail Center (P.C.A.D. Center) is your go-to auto care center
for all your paint care and protective needs.

Regardless of the condition of your vehicle, we are dedicated in making your car new-like again. Come see the difference from general automatic tunnel washes. More time will be spent on the key areas and greater care will be taken not to cause damage.

The benefit to you is that your car will look new for many years saving your car's value. Sure, auto detailing is more expensive than automatic car washes, however, the value is many times greater. 

"Human hands are the best tools to wash your ride"

In order to give you a price sight unseen, we use these prices below as our guideline which will be accurate in most cases. If your vehicle has a large amount of "conditions" that are not common, very heavy soil levels, or any "condition" that will extend the amount of labor needed to complete your detail service please understand that additional charges will be necessary.
To ensure we are meeting our clients return times and restraints,
we prefer vehicles to be dropped off anytime between 8am - 10am.
