Brought my new 2026 BMW M4 Competition Coupe xDrive to Auto Polishing Center in Waldwick for full PPF, ceramic coating on the wheels and Silverstone interior, plus ceramic tint on all windows except the windshield. Anthony and the team executed everything with precision and no-nonsense professionalism. They took the full week to properly tuck every edge of the PPF for a flawless, durable finish. Communication was clear and flexible from the first text through pickup, and the ceramic work came out razor-sharp. The M4 now looks better than new and is seriously protected. Top-tier service from start to finish. If you want serious protection done right on a performance car, APC is the real deal. Highly recommended. I'll be sending more clients their way and returning for maintenance. read more

I wanted to leave a follow-up after my previous visit. I'm happy to say the experience was excellent. My car came out spotless inside and out, and the attention to detail was noticeable. It honestly felt like the car had that fresh, new-car smell again when I got back in. What stood out most was the effort to make sure the experience was a good one. I appreciate the care that went into the service and will be returning. read more

Hands down the best automotive detailing center in the area. We've had our cars ceramic coated, window tinted, and regularly have them hand washed. We're so glad they implemented the loyalty program that offers a free birthday wash! read more

Hands down the best car wash and detail spot in Bergen county! I have been a long time customer since being recommended to try here with owning a larger vehicle. They do a phenomenal hand wash with spray wax and clean the interior of your car and all of the floor mats for a very reasonable price based off the size of your vehicle. The staff here are extremely friendly and careful with each car. I have never had an issue with a wash here as my car comes out looking brand new every time. They detail my one suv every year and I swear it makes the vehicle look better than new and it's helped to preserve my car's paint as well. The inside of the wash is great with a customer lounge for you to wait as the lines can get pretty long once the nicer weather begins. Anthony and his team are phenomenal and extremely personable. Not sure how there are any negative reviews here, because anytime I've had an issue and called back they immediately are willing and helpful to resolve any problem that could've happened. read more

All I can say is the people at this place are the nicest and most helpful. Nick in particular was gracious, accommodating and charged me fairly on two different occasions. Both were for spills on my seats. I had no appt , just showed up and he handled it both times, on the spot. Did a beautiful job at removing the stains. Can not detect where they were. And their car washes are amazing. Love this place. read more

Love love love this place. They do an amazing job detailing my car every time. Good price point. Really friendly people as well.

I tried out this place for the first time today, as I usually hand wash all of my vehicles and I am extremely picky. Upon pulling in, I noticed we were the eighth car in line, but things moved quickly. I was extremely impressed with the method in which this car wash functioned. Very smooth, very efficient, and extremely professional. On this particular day, I brought in my wife's Jeep Wrangler Willys that we recently purchased, and was charged a very fair price of somewhere around $44 for exterior and interior. I noticed a few Ferrari's in line behind me which definitely eased my mind a bit as to whether or not they were going to do a good job. Needless to say, the Jeep came out beautiful and I will definitely be coming back to APC. In particular, I enjoyed the canister style gloss spray used over the wheels at the very end. A very nice touch to an extremely well done hand wash. read more

Thorough, timely and professional. Service took about 5 hrs and was ready exactly when they said it would be.

Had a throw up incident with one of my kids 1 hour before closing. Gavin told me come right in, he took immediate care of the car, and restored it to brand new. I 100% think if he had waited, I'd be looking at the price of a brand new seat. Couldn't recommend them any higher. Thanks Gavin!! read more

Just got ceramic coating for my truck and it looks better than when I drove away with it brand new. Everyone is meticulous and I love my truck even more. Oh, and they detailed the interior and no cost. Thank you!!! read more

APC does a fantastic job washing your car by hand. Let me tell you my girl was d-i-r-t-y! All mats taken out of the car & scrubbed, hello, the other guys up charge an additional $10 for this bringing the total up to APC's price. The crew got into all the cracks & crevices where the nasty crumbs hide out and smell up your ride, yuck. Brush scrubbing my rims ... am I dreaming??? This wash takes a few more minutes than the wash & ride yet so worth it! I highly recommend. read more

I've been bringing my cars to APC about 4 years now, driving over from Brooklyn typically on a Saturday or Sunday morning. The wait is never too long, but I can appreciate the queue when there is one--they take their time to do the job right which can't be said for other hand car washes I've been to. From the simple maintenance wash to their hand wax, their pride and level of service is second to none, not in New York nor New Jersey. I bring my cars (C7 Z51 & C7 Z06) and my wife's (CRV) and I've never experienced any discrepancies in excellence and care. Highly recommended. read more

The gold standard of car washes and detailing but you will pay dearly. You will instantly know you are not at a run of the mill car wash when you pull up and see a dozen or more exotic cars getting some type of treatment at the facility along side the regular ones...Porsches, Ferraris, Lambos, Rolls Royce. The hand car wash is impeccable and so are the detailing services. Car comes out immaculate every time. I have no doubt they are using top grade products and employed skilled techs. Highly recommend but be prepared that prices reflect the level of service but well worth it if you care about your car. Avoid weekends as the waits can be long. My last detail on my black paint resolved most of the swirls and had the panels looking like a mirror. Highly recommend. read more

Anthony and his team at APC were beyond amazing. They picked up my new BMW from the dealership with their enclosed trailer and took it to their shop. They applied full PPF and Ceramic coating. Absolutely amazing quality of work. Would highly recommend them for your vehicle. If you are looking for the best work, APC has you covered. Thank you Anthony and team. I'll be sending all my business your direction. read more

First/last time there. Mediocre wash -- they left dirty fingerprints and mud all over the car. When I showed one of the guys he was defensive. They also used some stinky product to clean the interior, I cannot get rid of the smell. Never again! read more

Car was disgusting and I usually wash it myself Because I've given up on going to hand washes. The main reason this place deserves 5 stars is the level of detail ESPECIALLY THE RIMS, they not only get the deep Inner dish area and the spokes but after it's being dried they put the gloves on and go all the way back in. For the interior cleaning it's exceptional as well they use the air compressor blower and a vacuum to get any stubborn dust particles. Now they say Rome wasn't built in a day and this is very true , takes a while from when you first Get in line , but when you see how your car comes out you'll be glad you waited. Price is moderate but if you compare it to other local car washes you're getting a way better bang for your buck . Thanks guys for the amazing service and friendly read more

LONG REVIEW ALERT FOR REAL ONES THAT CARE ABOUT THEIR CARS AND DONT CARE FOR OVER DRAMATIC BULLSHIT YELP REVIEWS BUT ONLY FACTS I normally don't do Yelp reviews but I'm putting this out there for anyone that's meticulous as I am in terms of washing and detailing your personal vehicle. I brought a 2019 Subaru XV to them earlier this month on a sunny Sunday morning. The car was washed once by New Providence Hand Car wash (amazing place, always top notch in the years I've been going, but just been seeing DRAMATIC price increases which made me steer elsewhere) and had been maintaining it since by myself since. I brought this car to APC on recommendation by my sister who brought her 19' Toyota 4 runner. She claims it was immaculate and comparable to New Providence so I decided to take the 50 minute drive up. I paid about $40(?) for the wash with spray wax. Cool thing about the facility is that you get to watch the process unfold via windows. On the surface I couldn't see much abuse being done to the vehicle, the interior was vacuumed and wiped down quick, mats done, and the whole nine. It then entered stage 2 where the exterior was washed inside their garage. No issues so far from what the eye could see. Garage wash happened fairly quick and there's a few key things I noticed that felt abit odd, but I didn't challenge nor MAKE A SCENE cause that's not my style. #1. - For anyone that owns a foam cannon using a pressure washer you know that the foam comes out in huge quantity and suds the entire car. This is meant to break down the dirt aggressively before the hand wash. The foam or "bubbles" emitted by their power wash cannon was extremely weak - for me this was a potential sign that the solution was diluted heavily to save resources maybe, but eh. It was $40 so I understand. I assumed what makes up for this is their attention to running the mits and getting all the dirt off the exterior. Let's proceed. #2. - They used a broom for the roof of the car. The same was done for a Porsche Cayenne in front of me. I understand SUVs can be tough - but isn't this a hand car wash? This is subjective though given that I wasn't able to see the nature of the bristles nor have I examined the roof for swirl marks. But if the bristles weren't a rubberized or soft material then I'm not too sure what the rationale or explanation is here... #3 - Upon hand drying of the vehicle and finishing touches and "spray wax" I noticed a huge black smudge on the driver side door. I thought it was a SCUFF given that the wash AND the hand spray wax application didn't remove. Again, didn't make a scene cause that's not my style. Upon further examination when I returned home - I hit it with some Chemical Guys V7 and some elbow grease and it was GONE. What a joke. Very upset about that detail being missed. I wish I took pictures of before and after. Upon entering the car it didn't have that clean feeling. The cup holders were still sticky and crumbs were in there and other places. The windows had smudges on the edges indicating that they were ONLY cleaned about 90% of the way, missing the detail of going straight to the edge. Lame. See some pictures below with all the crumbs left over. I wish I took pictures of the cup holder and dust everywhere as well as the windows. But I was so angry that I just got in the zone of cleaning it myself and getting it right! Chemical Guys all purpose cleaner for the win! Now I'm not here to bash but it just surprises me this has 5 stars across the board. Maybe it's because my choice of wearing a bape shoulder bag vs a Louis Vuitton one was an issue and I wasn't to be taken seriously? For $40 I don't think paying the "APC" wash for $65 as advertised on their website would make much difference. Case and point, I'm not angry. I just want to shed light on this place for those who actually meticulously look at their cars post wash and have a general understanding of detailing because you PUT THE EFFORT IN yourself. This was my second and only choice vs New Providence car wash but they have their flaws too, and for $40 vs $100 I can't be too upset. Lesson learned - the level of detail and careful attention you want for your car will only be accomplished by yourself. I'll be detailing my cars from now on. Just sucks I couldn't take more pictures of the issues as I was more invested in GETTING IT RIGHT versus complaining and causing a huge deal. Thanks for reading! And if management chimes in, feel free. We can hash out the details and have a civil conversation, I'm a genuinely pleasant guy. read more

This is hands down the best place to get your car wash and detailed if your priority is quality. Their attention to detail is so much better than any other place I've been to. There won't be left over water stuck in your mirror that will drip down the side of your car. I also had them put a paint protection film on my SUV a year ago and it looks absolutely new and you could never tell it was applied to the car. Finally If you are a car person, this is a great place to go and just wait to get your car washed and just see what sports cars and super cars show up. Highly recommended. read more

This place deserves 5 stars! They did an amazing job ceramic coating my new BMW seats. Anthony and his team are the best in the business and I will travel an hour to get the quality of service they provide. Such an honest family-owned business with lots of charm, would never go anywhere else. read more

If I could give 0 stars.. I would. The front desk receptionist, Olivia is a shame to this business. She was unprofessional, crabby, and flat out rude. She was unknowledgeable of her, to be quite honest, basic job title. Although an 18 year old girl would probably rather be anywhere else but working a minimum wage job at a car wash, she could at-least throw a fake smile on for the sake of the business and customers. If this business was smart, they would find her a replacement and send her out the door. Therefore, I will not be returning to this place of business or recommending it to anyone in the area- I will be doing the opposite. Thanks Olivia for ruining what was once a great place. read more

Best car wash ever Looks better than when it came out of the dealer...every time Worth every penny !!!!

In the past, I have used a few local detailing shops and was often disappointed, usually due to car damage clearly and admittedly caused by workers but never reimbursed. I decided to give APC a chance. It took a few weeks to book my appointment. They were great! I couldn't have been more pleased or surprised. They got out some very stubborn stains and the inside was impressively clean. Also, I was surprised how nice the car wash left the exterior of my nearly 8 year old car. I will be a repeat customer. read more

I just moved to Waldwick and needed a car wash as my car was dirty from my move. This location did a fantastic job and payed super close attention to detail. For 35 dollars they detailed my car, and did an awesome job, vacuming out the car, removing the mats, and hand dryed it after. I will be back. read more

The only car wash I trust and worth every penny. Inside and outside are spotless and washed with care. 10/10 recommend.

When I arrived at APC there was a line however it was moving quickly and I noticed immediately how quickly the staff was working. While waiting in line one of the staff members even took the time to say hello while I was on line in my car. A small gesture that made me feel like this was a well run business. I was skeptical of getting the interior of my car washed during an ongoing pandemic however the staff members were all wearing masks. They gave a great waiting area with windows where you can watch your car get washed. They were extremely thorough and worked efficiently. I've been to many car washes but this certainly impressed me. When drying my car they even opened my trunk to dry the cracks in between that would've dripped with water. It's been a few days and my car still looks like the first day of the wash, especially my rims. I will definitely be back! read more

There is no better car wash. I have never in all my years of driving seen a group of guys clean a car and wipe it down with the amount of detail and precision as the guys working here. Sure, it takes some time but they take they don't miss a spot if you don't want drip marks and missed spots it's worth it. It takes some time, but who cares? Best car wash in the tri state. read more

Pros: Friendly staff, beautiful and quiet waiting area, high quality wax and efficient works; Cons: They put heavy wax on plastic trims, which was a disastrous mistake that had badly damaged my auto trim; They charged extra $20 for Mini Cooper Countryman because it is an SUV??? So if you have a compact SUV or wagon, you might have to pay extra even though the total area of your car is smaller than many full-size sedan. read more

This is in the town I live so I figured I visit and support local business. The staff was very friendly and you must know that they hand wish your car so it will take time, you can also leave and come back to pick up. If you decide to wait, it can take up to an hour depending on how busy they are. There is a nice lounge that you can drink coffee or water. Very clean and the guys washing your call especially in the freezing cold are amazing. It is not your typical drive the car through a machine that does the washing and waxing. The car is vacuumed, floor mats are hand washed, the car is hand washed and if you want your car waxed, well it is hand waxed as well. They really do a good job, just don't expect a quick in an out. read more

Was given a gift card for APC from my daughter for Xmas, so thought I'd give it a try. Love my Camaro and it was in need of a thorough cleaning spring clean. (both in and out) Booked it in for their Hand Wash and Wax. Results; 1. Service - Couldn't have been nicer 2. Exterior - Brilliant finish. Car looks like new. (Or better) 3. Interior - Look like no-one's ever driven the car. Recommend them highly. I'll be back read more

Found out about this place through Yelp! I've been looking for a quality Hand Wash Car wash in the North Bergen County area and APC seems to be what I've been looking for. My new Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited wasn't that greatly "detailed" by the dealership. Brought it to APC and they did a awesome job! I got the SUV Full Wash and the P Spray Wax. Definitely will be back and sending people your way! This is how a new car should look! Thanks guys! read more

So I've found a new luxury I never knew I was missing, quite by surprise. After a landscaping fiasco blew dirt all over my car, I just wanted a quick wash to get the dirt off. On my way back from the gym I stopped by this place not knowing what I was getting into. While the wait irritated me at first I realized they were doing a meticulous job on all the cars and good things take time. They thoroughly vacuumed inside and did the most detailed wash, dry and shine job I've ever seen. Seriously, I was like, ok guys, I don't need my car to be that clean. Will definitely make this a regular habit for just $30. read more

I've been going here for a couple of years now and I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this business. Their attention to detail on just a regular car wash is impeccable!

STOP what you are doing and go here to get your car, SUV, truck,moyorcycle..etc. washed. I was given a gift card for my birthday from my brother who couldn't say enough about this place. Finally, on my day off I decided to stop by to get my SUV washed. Just an fyi, my Ford Edge is 10 yrs old, but in great condition. If you are in a rush and want a bare bones basic wash, this isn't the place for you. The price is awesome for what you get. As you wait, you see how much work goes into their basic or APC (A little extra $$) wash..wow! When my car finally came out for them to dry I was in shock...it was glowing like I haven't seen in like 8 years..just due to everyday wear and tear. Couldn't thank them enough and I will be back again! Owner and staff are really nice as well. Wishing all the best to this company, I love a clean car! read more
