If you’re comparing detailers, ceramic coating installers or PPF shops, asking the right questions can save you a lot of frustration.
Here are five I’d recommend:
1. What exactly is included?
Don’t assume two packages with similar names include the same work.
2. How will the vehicle be prepared?
Preparation is especially important before ceramic coating or PPF.
3. Who will actually perform the work?
Experience matters.
4. What should I realistically expect when the job is finished?
A good shop should be willing to explain what’s possible — and what’s not.
5. What happens if I have a question afterward?
This one matters to me personally.
I don’t believe the relationship with a customer should end when they pick up their keys.
If you’ve spent good money protecting your vehicle and have a question afterward, you should be able to reach someone.
That’s one of the things we’ve built Superior around:
quality work, clear communication and being available when our customers need us.
The cheapest price isn’t always the best value.
And the highest price doesn’t automatically guarantee the best work either.
Ask questions.
A good shop should be comfortable answering them.
