Exterior Detailing
Our exterior detailing includes pre-rinse, hand wash, cut polish, and 5-year paint protection. We clean wheels, tires, and exhaust tips while using premium products to maintain your vehicle's showroom shine. This service removes contaminants and restores paint clarity for long-lasting protection.
Interior Detailing
Interior services feature vacuuming, steam-cleaning, leather conditioning, and dashboard protection. We treat fabric and carpet protection while ensuring windows and door jambs are spotless. Our process eliminates odors and restores interior surfaces to like-new condition.

We offer ceramic coating and graphene-based protection systems that last 3-10 years. These treatments create durable barriers against UV damage, acid rain, and environmental contaminants while maintaining a high-gloss finish.
Leather Conditioning
Our specialized leather treatment includes deep cleaning, conditioning, and protective coating application. This process prevents cracking and fading while maintaining the luxurious appearance of leather seats and trim.

Toby's car detailing is a terrific detailing place but a little hard to find. It has moved around the building and is behind Wavelengths hair salon. Pull in lots of parking. This is a one man operation so you have to book ahead as he only does one car a day. The price is comparable to other operations but the car comes out like new. A great job.

Jim is very friendly and charged a good price for polishing the exterior of the car. I'm happy with the end result, it was a great job done!

Brought my brand new 2017 Toyota Tacoma here and they returned it to me with a scratched interior and blue stains all over the doors as well as a white film that another detailing shop had to work diligently to remove. By far the worst experience in have had at any business in my entire life. Do not bring your vehicle here if you love you vehicle. The owner was rude and ignorant after I brought this to his attention as well. Worst business in Chilliwack.
