6 years in the business of Auto Detailing today! It’s been quite the ride of ups and downs. 2023 was significantly slower than 2022 but we had our second son and I learned a lot about my life work balance. Looking to make 2024 the best balance of both! Thank you to all of you who’ve supported me these last 6 years and here’s to many more!

C7 Corvette got the works Level 3 Protection Package!

Prepping a C7 Corvette for polishing and coating tomorrow! Love working on these as they just look incredible and embody the spirit of American road racing.

Planning to list my M3 for sale soon. DM me if you’re interested or might know anyone who is. I’ll be posting details in the coming week. Planning to get it cleaned up and listed ASAP. This was my dream car and wasn’t an easy decision to make, but I’d love to see the right person it enjoy it as much as I have.

I have to shout out my mom because she’s been such a supporter of me and everything I’ve wanted to do. She doesn’t let me do much for her so it was a great feeling to be able to give back to her in the form of a spruced up car. Thank you and love you, Mom!

It’s the little things that matter to us. There are plenty of great detailers around, but when it comes to customer service, that’s where we really try to shine ✨ Reviews like these are appreciated so much!

Absolutely thrilled to be on board with Justin Ruble and @green_turtle_racing this year as a sponsor for him and his BMW M2 Competition in Grid Life’s Street GT course. Justin and I have supported each other’s ventures for years and this is a continuation of that. He’s believed in this business since the start and now we’re here to support his racing. This will be a great platform to share how automotive care and racing go hand in hand. Follow along with him for more exciting content!

A couple weeks ago Tom stopped by with scratches on his Dodge Challenger. After expressing concerns with their unsightliness we booked him for a 1 stage paint correction. This service removed a lot of the defects and even made the deeper scratches less visible so they don’t catch your eye. Finally l, we ended up topping it all off with an overly glossy ceramic coating. Looking to make your vehicle shine bright? Let us know and we can schedule a free consultation to see what options fit your needs best.

Glorified car washer? #detailing #carwash #car

Wanted to share this for any others going through a tough time after losing someone so close to them ❤️

Let’s hear your spring/summer plans!

Enjoy the sights and sounds

Where’ve you been?! Update for everyone

From a good client this morning when he went to clear the ice off his car - “I’m actually impressed. We turned the car on and let it run for a good amount of time. Just went out there and scraped the ice off. No pressure what’s so ever and got pretty much everything off” His car was ceramic coated, which actually keeps even snow and ice from sticking as much. Be safe out there everyone!

The Black Friday special is live! One special and it’s for our most popular package. The Top level 5 year coating. And…… it’s 50% off! Yeah, might’ve gone a bit crazy with this one, but hey it’s been a heck of a year and I want to say thank you! Pricing and info is in the link/bio. Let me know if you’d like to pick one up, quantity is limited to 5 total. https://app.urable.com/virtual-shop?accountId=nK1ADVEtl6vDUHGBErjQ&categoryId=sZa77dwC889r7oNwSOLq

Where’ve we been?!? Well…. Working. On what? The last few months have been non-stop, primarily jobs polishing cars to better than new and topping with ceramic. With that, I’m working on cooking up some spicy 🥵 BLACK FRIDAY deals again. Last years were an absolute hit and booked us months out. Based on popularity, this years offerings will be based around…. You guessed it, Ceramic Coatings. Keep yo eyes peeled 👀

Well over a month of dirt and grime and it all cleaned up in 30 minutes with a simple rinseless hand wash thanks to being ceramic coated! #detailing #ceramiccoating #fyp

Operating a business on the side during weekends means it’s important we enjoy our Saturday. We love the detailing aspect but a good company lunch is icing on the cake 🎂. Tacos and a cold cerveza always hits the spot!

I love selling. As much as I love detailing. Why? Because in my world selling is helping. I will never sell to convince you you need something. I recommend what I believe will make your life better and then the choice is yours. There is never pressure. I was so happy to be able to do that for the owners of this new Mini Cooper. They were skeptical of the coating service being pitched by the dealership. Unfortunately many times it’s not on the same level as the ceramics I offer. I was able to sell them what they were looking for at a higher level of quality and, get this, a better price. Helping people is truly where my passion lies and is a core value of this business.

We’ve been really quiet on here. Mostly due to how busy the schedules been. Each weekend we’ve been installing ceramic coatings and polishing vehicles to look their best! Check out the Chevy Blazer that received our Level 2 Protection Package and some emblem removal.

The process of Ceramic coating wheels a Client bought lightly used. Enjoy!

After my wife has owned this for a year, I was finally able to get it detailed. Kinda a downside to being married to a detailer is the wait times 😬 ✅ Detailed ✅ Polished ✅ Ceramic coated

Not detailing related, but car related. As some of you may or may not know, auto racing (specifically Indycar and F1) is my sport of choice. Nothing in sports gets me more excited than open wheel racing. For years I’ve wanted somewhere to go watch F1, and that isn’t too easy to find in the USA. Well this season Land-Grant Brewing Company has opened their doors to support this niche community of die hard supporters. I was able to get out early this morning to watch the race in Barcelona and it did not disappoint! Delicious beer and F1 fans going crazy, what an experience! I highly recommend checking it out for a race!

WHO’S HAPPY?! It finally feels like summer ☀️. Sipping coffee outside in the morning, washing cars with the garage door open, wearing shorts, new summer music. It’s just the best! Who’s excited for summer? I want to know what you have planned, drop it in the comments!

Even new cars need some polishing love prior to coating them. Manufacturers can only spend so much time on each one in order to keep the line running and meet production numbers. Auto Aesthetic isn’t a production detailing business. Each vehicle is treated exactly to what it needs to meet and exceed your expectations. From the booking/scheduling process to the pickup service. It’s of our highest priority to ensure you’re taken care of from start to end. And even once the detail has ended and you pick up your vehicle we’re still here for support. #rivian #ev #truck #columbus #ohio #tesla #614 #614columbus

Brand new Rivian received our Level 3 protection package. All exterior surfaces polished and ceramic coated to keep things cleaner longer and easier to maintain!

Jaguar F-Type brought back to life after polishing, ceramic coating, and sprucing up the interior. Just in time for summer. #detailing #ceramiccoating #jaguar

Some cars live very hard lives before they fall into the hands of a caring owner. That was the case for our client who purchased this Mazda Miata last year. He didn’t like that the paint looked so worn and tired. But that doesn’t mean it’s the end. He inquired about what we could do instead of him having it painted. Well I’ll let the pictures do the talking. Not only did we save him thousands over a new paint job, but we were able to keep the value of the car higher by avoiding a paint job. This is what we do and we love doing it!

This was a fun one! Jaguar F-Type came in for our level 3 protection package. - Paint Enhancement - Top level ceramic coating on paint - Wheels faces coated - All glass coated Much easier to clean now. Improved aesthetics. Protection from chemicals and UV exposure. The schedule is staying busy, if you’re interested in getting the best out of your vehicle contact us today.

Hope you enjoyed the weekend. We sure did!

Some awesome shots of the Audi RS3 we did a few weeks back! Taken by the owner @spaceship.wrks

Are we the biggest detail shop in Columbus? No, there’s only 2 of us. Do we work out of a home garage? For now, yes. Do we currently work primarily only weekends? Yes. These are all attributes of a small side hustle. Underneath the skin we are so much more though. We continue to grow and the trust that’s been placed in us is what fuels us. We will deliver better service than any other detail shop in the area with the results and products to back that up. It’s appreciated so much when receiving reviews. They truly validate what we’re doing and make us only want to be work harder and be better. As always, thank you 🙏🏻

Taking brand new cars and making them what they were meant to be. This brand new 2022 BMW X3 M Competition came from Cleveland and was very poorly prepped. It looked like it had salt wiped off with a drag dirty rag. Well we did what we do best, safely fixed the damage, and topped every exterior surface with a ceramic coating. The paint, the wheels, the windows. All protected for years to come.

When applying a ceramic coating you can actually leave what we call “high spots”. What’re those and why do you care?? They’re areas where more coating was left behind during the application process and not properly removed or leveled. This actually ends up appearing like an oil spill on your paint. After a ceramic coating is performed there’s a small window of time you can easily remove these before they’re completely bonded to the paint. Sometimes not visible under direct light, we check every vehicle using diffused light. You can see Troy here, in the dark, bouncing light off a whiteboard and onto the paint. This allows you to see things you just can’t see in direct light. Even though you may or may not notice a high spot we care enough to ensure they don’t exist. It’s the right thing to do.

Audi RS3 didn’t have many miles on it but already had some decent swirls and damage to the paint. We cleaned those up and the rest of the car via polishing, then applied out entry level coating. The results even with the entry level coating are just amazing!

March is booked solid and booking into mid April. All for clients getting their cars paint dialed in and ceramic coated. Took some time to do spring cleaning in the garage in preparation of all the work!

Really been trying to work on my posture while polishing. Let me know how I’m doing… Pic 1: how I usually detail, terribly hunched over leading to back pain 🤕 Pic 2: bending at the knees while keeping back straight 🏋️‍♀️ Pic 3: power stance ⚡️

Hope you’re having a good week!

Brand new Kia getting prepped for ceramic coating. Being protected straight from the dealership will ensure the ultimate ease of maintenance and protection.

Had the pleasure to travel to Cincinnati to work on this BMW M235i we ceramic coated over a year ago. The owner takes meticulous care of it but a couple bird pop spots had quickly caused etching into the coating. The beauty of this being the paint underneath was protected. We were able to remove the coating in the etched locations, ensure a proper finish of the clear coat, and reapply coating for years of protection to come! Had the car not been coated we’d be removing clear coat in order to bring back the finish and that only shortens the life. This is a major benefit of a ceramic coating!

A clean engine bay not only looks great, it also makes it easier to find and diagnose any issues before they get worse. This is the heart of your vehicle, so keep it healthy!

It’s been a minute since we’ve posted anything… Detailing has been non stop thanks to all of you. Thank you for the support this year, it’s been a lot of growth and we look forward to growing more with you next year. From the Auto Aesthetic team we wish you and your family happy holidays ❤️

Feeling shiny might delete later. Check out that After shot of our Level 1 Protection package, which includes an enhancement polish and ceramic coating after the detail 🤩

So thank you for getting us to this point and thank you for any continued support as we grow ❤️ We have put together some pretty crazy deals, which we will release in a few days.

Keep yo 👀 peeled. BLACK FRIDAY deals are coming. We might be a little insane with these 🤪

Man what a busy day it was. Knocked out two cars, now it’s time to relax 👌. Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend!

⚠️WARNING⚠️ This image is a joke. No Supra’s were harmed in the making of it. However, the message here is NOT a joke. ⛄️ As the season changes we have less nice days to get out and clean our rides. Does that desire to clean your car almost disappear? Do you decide you’ll just clean the car in the spring? 👎 I’m telling you, this is not a good idea. Not using scare tactics at all but hear me out. If you were to have your house cleaned before winter and after winter don’t you think the after winter cleaning would be easier? There’d be less to vacuum, less dust, less debris settling into carpets. It’s the same with your car, SUV, truck, you name it. In ways it’s even worse. Your house isn’t subjected to the corrosive salts and chemicals sprayed on the roads, which end up coating our vehicles. 👉 That’s why we’re here. To make sure you don’t have to worry about these tasks. We’ll take the chore off your hands, give you some time back, and return a car that’s protected for the winter. 🤔 How do we do this? Moving into winter we get your vehicle detailed inside and out then protect it inside and out. This adds barriers to the paint, wheels, carpet, leather, everything, so there’s protection against the harsh elements. Once spring comes along these protective layers have taken the brunt of the damage, leaving your second biggest investment protected underneath. It also makes for an easier spring cleaning as the debris and contamination will not adhere to surfaces as easily. Are you interested in protecting your vehicle? Let us know and we will find the right fit for you. This is not a one size fits all model. We have options to fit every need. 🙏🏻 If you read this far we want to truly say thank you. It means a lot to spend your time reading what we have to say and we say it because we truly care.

Thank you to all our veterans

Is your ride not that “like new” 🧼 clean?!? That’s ok. That’s why we’re here 👍. The winter ❄️ schedule is filling up fast. Send us a DM to discuss your vehicles needs. Each one is different and we have a package to suit you. Also, did I mention that we’ll be offering some crazy BF deals?! Let us know in the comments what you’d like to see offered!

“Can you detail in the cold?” This is a question often asked by our clients. The answer is YES! We have an insulated and vented garage and when needed will temporarily get the temperature up to something comfortable to ensure the best working conditions.

Our client came in for a Level 2 Exterior detail to remove the years of stubborn decontamination and sap that had fallen onto the paint. We were able to chemically remove the sap and even polished out some of the areas as a value added service to ensure the best results. We often go further than the package you pay for because we’re in the business of exceeding expectations and want to offer the best service you can get in the area. The client also stated a funky odor coming from the vents when the AC was on recirculation. We felt it best to replace the cabin air filter, which is often forgot about. This is just all part of doing business with us. We’re not happy until you are. ALSO, don’t forget we will be coming out with some absolutely 🔥 Black Friday offerings. Comment anything you’d like to see offered!

Our client purchased their wife a gift card and she scheduled a Level 2 Exterior detail for her Acura RDX. The Level 2 Exterior involves our triple decontamination wash, including clay bar, to exfoliate the paint and get it to a truly clean state! Also, I just want to say how humbling it is when someone chooses our services as a gift to someone special to them. Thank you ❤️

What kind of deal would YOU like to see on black Friday?? We want to offer crazy deals on whatever it is you’re looking for! Ceramic coatings? Paint Correction? Interior Detailing? All of the above? Comment what you want!

Rubber floor liners are great for keeping soil off the carpet. However, they need cleaning too and are regularly pretty stubborn to get right. With a combination of the proper chemicals, tools, and most importantly attention to detail we get them back to like new finished with some protection. Regular cleaning every 3-6 months allows these to keep their deep black look and last longer!

Porsche 911 came out looking 🔥! Our Level 1 Interior & Exterior detail got it cleaned up great from the light use it sees.

Wow. This weekend was exhausting 🥵. But in a good way! The entire Auto Aesthetic team (Troy and Josh) spent 3 days in Ashland for an advanced paint correction and business training course! 🤔 Why would a couple of weekend detailers invest this much time away from family, money, and effort? Well just because we only do this on the weekends doesn’t mean we aren’t as serious as any full time business. We take our skills as serious as we can and are always looking to be better. This was the next step towards offering our amazing clients the best experience and product available. It was also a great time meeting other top level detailers from all over the country, finally putting names to faces.

⚠️ Attention Local Businesses ⚠️ I am wanting to run a giveaway during the last part of the year. This is to show my appreciation for the community in what has been a great year of support for this little business. I would love to partner 🤝 with local businesses and feature items from them. This does not need to be automotive related. Whether it’s something small or a gift card I would include that in the giveaway. I am happy to support your business too by purchasing these items. I am not looking for freebies. If you have a local business or would like to tag one in the comments please do and I’ll be in touch. There’s no guarantee I’ll be able to include all businesses but I am happy to work with each and promote what I can. Thank you 🙏🏻

Realized we never posted final still images of the Tundra. Here they are, please enjoy! We completed a two stage paint correction in order to remove a large majority of defects and restore gloss, removing the years of abuse making the paint look dull and faded. We then topped it with a high gloss ceramic coating to protect the paint for years, not months, making maintenance cleaning take minutes, not hours. This gives you your times back and the maintenance process more enjoyable.

24 hours of work later and the Tundra is complete 🙌

Some pics of the results after a two stage paint correction. After 16 hours we determined the best combination of pads and abrasives to maximize defect removal while minimizing clear coat removal and implemented the process. This can be a tricky balance as restoring the paint comes at the expense of a decrease in clear coat. With proper technique we were able to remove an amount of clear coat that will not lead to any concerns while removing defects and increasing gloss levels. The next step is to apply a ceramic coating. This provides a strong layer of protection to the clear coat lasting years, not months. The sun is a primary contributor to clear coat failure, but the coating will offer UV protection and act as a sacrificial layer. This way the coating deteriorates slowly over years, protecting the clear coat. Once a coating has expired it can simply be applied again. Whether that’s 3 years or 5 years later. This is just one of the ways we can offer you worry free maintenance of your vehicle!

Why do you think it’s called “detailing”? Yes, that is a q-tip in my hand…. I’m using it to get in the crevices of this trim during a restoration to bring the black back from a faded grey.

Some details really test you as a detailer 🥵. The Japanese black paint on this Toyota Tundra is one of those times. This isn’t the final result, we still have another stage of refinement polishing to do, but after the initial cut the defect removal is slappin.

It was a rainy 🌧 day but we’re still at it this weekend. Working on a two stage correction on a 13 year old black Toyota Tundra and boy are the results going to be insane.

Mirror mirror on the wall…. Oh wait, that’s no mirror!

Our guy Troy putting some work into this Mercedes getting the paint polished prior to coating. The results speak for themselves! Next month we’ll be off for a 3 day advanced paint correction course as continuous improvement is a big part of Auto Aesthetic. Always striving to be the best and offering our clients the best.

The baby is asleep and so I have time to unbox some supplies. Join me on my spur of the moment awkward talk on what came in the mail. If you’re interested in any products for yourself just let me know. As a @waxedshine distributor I offer pro level products you can use at home. Whether it’s chemicals, polishers, or microfibers I know these will be some of the best products in your arsenal.

The final results of our Level 1 protection package on the Honda Civic Si! This green is mean and has some serious gloss and protection on it now. The ceramic coating is going to drastically reduce time it takes to maintain, easier to clean, and protected from the elements. Reach out now to see what we can do for you.
