TEXT FROM MALE CUSTOMER: Words cannot express how grateful I am that I found Carolina Auto Salon. Before coming here, I took my Lexus IS 350 to a local mobile detailer who completely hacked my clear coat up with multiple rotary buffer holograms covering all sides of the car. I was completely devastated and thought the clear coat would be permanently damaged. After extensive online research, I found out that rotary buffer holograms do come out but it takes a very talented professional to fix them. Now my Lexus looks brand new thanks to Stan and his crew. When I say brand new, I mean it literally. It looks brand new! He did an amazing job and basically saved my car's life. I elected to get the ceramic coating and I'm glad I did. It looks incredible! I also have a clear bra on the front bumper/hood that Stan polished to blend in with the black paint. Can't even see the clear bra anymore. Extremely hard to do! This is all around the best service I've received by anyone in Columbia, SC. Thank you Stan! read more

SCS Auto Detailers really know what they/re doing. I've been to a few detailers and I can tell you, these guys are the most through. I took both my car, and my wife's car in, shortly after all that pollen earlier this year. These cars had pollen caked onto the paint, and tons of tiny leaves in every nook and cranny of the interior. After a day at SCS, they looked brand new. I actually sat in store, and watched Stanley detail my wife's car, and I was amazed at the level of fine detailing, and thoroughness. He left nothing undone. I got the Basic Plus package on both of my vehicles, which seemed to be the best value for my needs at the time. The clay bar treatment restores the finish on the car like nothing I've ever seen. As for their Add-ons, I got my wife's cloudy headlights restored, and they look showroom quality new. Both of my vehicles were completely transformed, and I couldn't be more grateful that these guys are here in Columbia. These guys are second to none. They'll keep your car looking pristine. read more

Great detailers. They love what they do and it shows. If you are particular about how you treat your car... if you would never let your car near an automatic car wash... if you love the look of a freshly polished and/or waxed car... then this is the place for you. They are pros. After my brand new car got dirty on a long road trip, they fit me in on an hour's notice, cleaned me up, and put on a fantastic coat of wax. Stanley and the guys here are great to deal with. Having detailed my cars personally in the past - i believe the prices they charge are quite fair considering the time and effort a detailing of this level takes. I would rather pay their fee than spend 3 hours of my free time on it - that is time that could be spent enjoying the car on the road. I highly recommend them. read more

I took my car there for a full interior detail(with the financial assistance of a Groupon) a week and a half after a full bottle of soda exploded inside of it, not to mention the fact that I practically live in my car including eating so it was not a pretty sight. I've owned my car for a year and a half and vacuumed it a few times, washed it a few but nothing major. When they were finished it was a completely different story. It actually looks brand new. No stickiness anywhere to be found, stains gone from the upholstery and just basically a spotless interior. I didn't think it was possible to get it that clean not to mention the customer service was fantastic. Now I just need to keep it this way... read more

SCS Auto Detailers are EXCELLENT. These gentlemen truly cared about our car, and they cared about us. We usually keep our car in good shape, but an illness and death in the family and bad experiences from the major flood we had here (our cars were not flooded) put us behind. Our car was a mess. We take our dog in it, and it had many, many dog hairs. There was tar on it. It was dirty. We made an appointment, and work on our car started right away. We got our car back when it was promised to be through. We don't have fancy cars, but they treat all cars the same. It looks GREAT, and we have an appointment to take our other car in. We highly recommend them. read more

Good work! Stanley and Frank got right to work on an interior detail for $75. Cleanest the car has looked since new. Only two downsides and that is some still-wet areas left on the door panelling, but it dried quickly. Left some streaks though that I will probably wipe off with a damp towel. The other is the smell of the cleaner - it has an artificial chemical odor and is making me feel a little lightheaded, but I bet it's industry standard and found at any detailer you go to. Stanley's a wheeler-dealer, so be prepared for the upselling. Nice guys though and good work. read more

I am a Jaguar collector and in showing my 1989 XJS V12 25 year old original paint. I was tempted to have repainted due to the scratches & swirled on the paint. I met Stan Mason of Carolina auto salon and he told e he could restore my paint like new! The car looks better than a new paint job and added a ceramic coating that lasts 5 yrs never wax again and it pops! Since then Stan has polished & ceramic coated my 3 other cars all show winners. Best in town for what ever your needs are. TS. read more

SCS did a fantastic job restoring the finish to my Porsche. I bought a full service interior and exterior package and was not disappointed. After a couple of years without a good detailing they brought the car back to a like-new appearance. They were able to work me in right away and have the car back sooner than anticipated. They were very knowledgeable about the products and techniques needed to do the work and delivered on every promise. Great job Stanley! I'll be back! read more

SCS did the best detailing job that I have ever had here in Columbia or any place I have lived. These guys were fast, efficient, neat, clean, and courteous...and I only got the basic service. I can only imagine how happy I'm going to be when this pollen goes away and I go back for the clay bar and wax. Ask Stanley for Adam's favorite scent when you go. You absolutely will not be disappointed. -Adam Mathews www.SellingSodaCity.com read more

Professional all the way around. Excellent detail servicing to my vehicle. I have toddler twins and there were stains in the upholstery of my new car, as well as general layers of yuck inside and several small scratches and a dent on the rear passenger side. Everything was removed, including the dent! Very responsive customer service and a good deal for the price. Stanley is great at his work. read more

Took my Honda Civic in for a complete detail and came back looking almost new again! The staff were super nice, gave me a ride to and from my house during the detail process. It took around 4-5 hours but that's what you would expect with this level of cleaning and detailing. You don't want to pay for a half-assed 2 hour job! Highly recommend, I will be returning. read more

My boyfriend and I purchased the groupon last year and loved it so much that we bought one for my brother too. Stanley and his team are incredible and do an outstanding job! My car was a complete mess and he made it look brand new. Trust me, I have high expectations so you won't be disappointed. I definitely recommend them and we will all be coming back! read more

SCS Auto Detailer did an amazing job on my 2002 Altima! They shampooed the seats, removed years of grime from the interior, washed & waxed the exterior, defogged the headlights, and buffed body scratches for a reasonable price. Their fast and friendly service will definitely receive my business in the near future. read more

On May 31, 2014 I took my car to SCS and the staff was very courteous and professional. They dropped me off and picked me up. The job they did on my SUV was immaculate, it practically looked like a new car and the price was reasonable. I would highly recommend taking your vehicle here to be detailed. read more

I still haven't met the folks who cleaned my car. But that's because they were so awesome and flexible about picking it up and dropping it off for me during a hectic work week. And it's the cleanest it has ever been - inside and out. If you don't use them, you only have yourself to blame. read more

I really wish I had taken a before picture to show what an amazing job they did. I brought them a 6 year old dirty truck and when it was returned to me, it honestly looked brand new! There's is absolutely nothing negative I could say about this place. I will absolutely be returning soon! read more

Stanley and Frank take TLC to a new level. My 1989 560SL with original paint now looks like it was just driven out of the showroom, even better than my eight year-old Ford F-150, which also looks great. There is nothing ordinary about what they do here. Am hooked for life. read more

I love SCS Auto Detail. When you're working with people who are just as passionate about your car as you are, it means a lot. I will never go anywhere else to have my "Lola" detailed. Professionalism at its best! read more
