Ricky Velez2025-06-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Got custom roof with black ppf on my vette and it looks something else. Clean work. Great attention to detail. John Montalbano2025-06-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I brought my wife’s Tesla in for a ceramic coating. Tesla paint is infamous for its softness and susceptibility to fading and deterioration. I met with Danny and he and his crew worked miracles on the car. They restored it back to its factory finish! Was the work great? Yes. Was the price fair? Absolutely! But the best thing was the customer service. As you can read in the other reviews, Danny was fabulous, but what I wanted to add was that I had the opportunity to talk to a couple of different guys there that did the work on the cars and all of them were super nice. You can see the passion for their craft in their eyes when you talk to them and their willingness to go the extra mile for you. Give these guys a try… you won’t be disappointed! Sam2025-06-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had three of my cars worked on here. Absolute best job ever! Daniel exceeded all my expectations.

Sally Wood2025-05-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The first thing I do when I research any business is look for integrity and honesty. That’s what I found with Daniel and Hand Upon Detailing. Daniel called and texted me throughout the procedure on my new car, which I sort of think of as my baby! The results are really beautiful. Daniel Is friendly, honest and easy to deal with. Thank you so much for such a wonderful job. Corlin Palmer2025-04-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Beautiful work on short notice Matt Brooks2025-04-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Summary of my experience at Hand Upon: 1. Daniel was willing to take the time to educate me on the options for my new Bronco. We arrived at a blend of PPF and ceramic that worked for my needs - there were never any "sales tactics" used. 2. I got several quotes from other businesses in the area - Hand Upon was the best value based on what I was getting for my $$. 3. Daniel obviously loves cars. We spent >15 minutes just talking about my car (and cars in general ) when I was at drop off. 4. Daniel frequently updated me throughout the process AND as questions came up (do you want this or that?) he asked right away and kept me involved with the decisions. 5. He had the car ready when he said he would. 6. He delivered great results inside and out. The Bronco looks GREAT! Overall, I am very happy with my choice to use Hand Upon. I'll be going back to get my wife's car done :) Already got dirty again! John Ingellis2025-04-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an awesome experience with Hand Upon and I couldn't be more happy. I really appreciated the price transparency up front and the fast responses from Daniel. When I arrived at the shop he explained everything and got to work promptly. Turn around time was as quoted, which was very important to me. I had an absolute nightmare time with a previous vehicle at a different detailer, so I was a bit nervous leaving my brand new car to get cermic coated. But Daniel vastly exceeded my expectations, I can not recommend this business enough. Somehow my new car looks even more new now. Mr2025-03-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Found this place by chance. Had my car that is an older one done here and wasn't expecting the level of craftsmanship that was done. I was blown away and throughly impressed with how good of a job was performed. They are legit as they come and highly recommend their services. Thanks gentlemen!! I will be back!
Kelly U.2025-06-07Verified Great service! My car looks shiny and brand new again. I'm glad I got this done and I'm definitely referring others to do the same.

Damian N.2025-03-11Verified Update March 2025 - Yet another solid job by Daniel and his team at Hand Upon Detailing. I unfortunately was involved in a hit and run resulting in significant damage to my front quarter panel. Danny partnered with Kay at Bumper Plus Autobody to work on the car. They went above and beyond to restore the car back to brand new looking status. Danny takes his time with PPF installs, and coupled with full ceramic coating, the car looks absolutely stunning. Daniel R.2025-03-11Verified Amazing service, Daniel was very kind and helpful. When it comes to my car, I always try to find the best. The ceramic coating on my Mercedes made it look brand new! He truly does fantastic work. Timothy R.2025-03-08Verified Brought my wife's 2022 Kia Sorento in to Daniel for a full ceramic coating with his 3-5 yr warranty package and I could not be happier! Daniel was super friendly and helpful from the start, and maintained great communication and updates throughout the process. He did an interior detail, wash, decontamination, paint correction, ceramic coating, and even fixed some problem glue spots from sloppy dealership work. The depth of color and shine he brought to the green paint looks absolutely gorgeous. The prices are very fair, and the quality of work is second to none! I now recommend Hand Upon Detailing and Ceramic Coating to all my friends and family, and will definitely be going back to Daniel for any further needs! Stern H.2025-02-27Verified I forgot to mention the beautiful finish with ceramic coating. It's fabulous and will keep my car looking great. Neil B.2025-02-06Verified Amazing service from start to finish! Daniel was able to help me out over Yelp and get me scheduled quickly for the 3-5 year ceramic coating on my car at a competitive price compared to other shops in the area. My car had endured some nasty swirl marks from a bad wash/detail at another shop and Daniel assured me that he would be able to get the swirls out and then protect the car with the ceramic coating to get it back to a glossy/showroom like finish. Sure enough, Daniel and his team absolutely delivered! The car looks amazing and there is virtually no sign of the swirl marks that were there before. His attention to detail is impeccable. He brought the car back to life and now it is protected to help make future washes and maintenance even easier. On top of the amazing work product, Daniel was super communicative throughout the whole process - updating me on the status of the car and texting me photos along the way. Do yourself a favor and go see Daniel and his team if you are in need of a detail and/or ceramic coating for your car. Maraleen S.2025-01-24Verified I took my car to Hand Upon Detailing and Ceramic Coating. Danny and his team did a remarkable job. They gave me a great price on the ceramic coating and my car looks fantastic. My son took me to pick up my car and he was so impressed he made an appointment to have them work on his car as well. I not only liked the work they did but what really impressed me was their attitude. They really know how to treat a customer.This alone says how committed they are to their customers. I definitely will recommend them to my family and friends. Clayton B.2025-01-07Verified I recently purchased a new car and wanted ceramic coating to protect it. I found Hand Upon detailing here on Yelp. The owner, Danny was quick to respond and walked me through the benefits of ceramic coating and how to care for it. I also had Danny ceramic tint my front two windows, buff out a fairly large scratch, and re-color my car's emblems. Danny was really communicative, efficient, and worked around my schedule. My car looks incredible; better than I had imagined. Thanks Danny and team! Jack N.2024-10-06Verified About 2 months ago I parked my car underneath these big trees at work. Somehow a very sticky tree sap substance got ontop of my car and all over my neck left door. The sap was like superglue and I was afraid that it would prevent me from falling up my windows. I had to use 4 different products to remove the sap from the car but it doing so I totally messed my my cars clear coating. I bought it into Daniel and within 2 days what he was able to accomplish was nothing short of magical. I got a paint correction, head light restoration, and an a full interior cleaning. Daniel not only fixed the damages to the paint, but he pretty much restored my car to a showroom finish. The headlights went from yellowish to completely clear; the paint was replenish to a sparkly bright finish. The scratch mark on the bumper of my car was buffed out; my car seats were steamed cleaned and everything on the inside was polished and cleaned to perfection. It was basically almost reset to when I had first purchased my civic 8 years ago. When I drove my car home even the air conditioning felt cooker because everything was so clean. The service was by no means cheap, but I definitely felt like I got value from everything that was done. Even if your car doesn't have any exterior paint issues, I would definitely recommend the interior cleaning package because of how spotless my car came out. Daniel is very knowledgeable about car detailing and his services are extremely professional.
