About Gloss Lab

A detail shop that fits in a van.

Gloss Lab started with one rule: nobody should lose a Saturday sitting in a detail-shop lobby. So we built a fully loaded van with its own water tank, generator and the same pro-grade polishers and coatings a shop uses, and we bring it to you.

Every car gets the same care whether it's a work truck or a weekend car. We take photos before and after, and we don't leave until you've walked around it with us.

Reviews

Austin driveways, very shiny.

4.9 average from 210+ reviews across Google and Nextdoor.

"They detailed my truck in the office parking lot while I was in meetings. Two kids and a dog worth of crumbs, gone. Looks better than the day I bought it."

"Got the ceramic package on a black car. The swirl marks are gone and water just sheets off now. Clear about price up front, no upsell."

"Booked Fresh every other week for my wife's SUV. Always on time, they text when they're close, and they never need anything from us. Easy."

FAQ

Good questions.

Do I need to provide water or power?

No. The van carries 100 gallons of water and a quiet generator. We just need enough room to walk around the car.

Can you work at my apartment or office?

Usually, yes. We use a rinseless method that leaves no runoff, which most property managers are happy with. Check your lot rules and we'll do the rest.

How long does ceramic coating last?

Our standard coating is rated for 3 years with basic care. We'll show you how to wash it, or you can book our maintenance wash.

What if it rains?

We'll move you to the next open slot at no charge. Ceramic jobs need a dry 24 hours, so we watch the forecast closely.

How do I pay?

Card, Apple Pay or Venmo when the job's done. Ceramic jobs take a $100 deposit to hold the day.
