Auto Magic Detailing

Plain & Simple: «A Class Act». My car has been detailed several times by Luis, who is a «Master at his Craft». Not only am I more in love with my car when he finishes, but I look so forward to him being in my world for a little while. He is always dressed impeccably and when he is done, I feel that I could jump in my car with him and head for the «Prom», even though I’m a grandmother. The whole process starts by talking with Mark on the phone, and just making the detail appointment is virtually painless and easy. Mark has such an easy, wonderful & comfortable way about him that it just makes you want to meet Luis. What an amazing team. Luis arrives early and since it’s at my house…“easy as pie”! I always have coffee ready for him, even though he would never ask, but I know it brightens the start of his day. My car is gone over thoroughly, first with special clay and then waxed perfectly. He is great about applying «touch up paint», which I furnish, and when he is done, I’m sure I could eat off the seats and the dashboard, let alone the floor. Luis has an wonderful easiness about him, therefore he is such a terrific guest, even though working. I don’t even mind writing a check because it’s the nicest thing I can do for myself, a treat and makes me the happiest I can be. My car is so shiny and gorgeous when I take it out of the garage that it probably prompts some folks to put on sunglasses so they can deal with the glare… funny girl, but there is some truth to it. So everyone, if you want to spend the best money you can spend ever, don’t miss out on this team. You will be happier, better off and prouder of your car than when you took it off the «showroom floor». Hope this lights a fire under you to call Mark. You will never, ever be sorry.

Super fast, friendly, professional, and my 2012 Audi Q5 looks better than brand new! Also very reasonably priced. I will no doubt be using them again and recommending them to anyone that might be looking for auto detailing. Thanks again!

Exceptional auto detailing! Professional, on time, high quality, friendly service. Highly Recommend.

So I’ve never actually gotten work here. I wanted to make an appointment but they were super busy. They were so incredibly nice though and recommended someone else in the area that could get me in sooner. You guys made a customer without selling a thing. Thanks!

My almost 12 year old car has gone from the east coast to the west coast and has picked up some scratches and dings along the way. Recently, I scratched my car backing into my garage (ugh) and I wanted to see if an auto detail would do the trick. I contacted Mark to schedule an appointment and he fit me in the next week (definitely book in advance because Mark is popular). I dropped my car off at 7 AM (I don’t have a driveway) and a couple hours later my car was ready and looked AMAZING! I got the same butterflies in my stomach that I got when I bought my car new back in 2004.
Mark and Luis did a wonderful job buffing and waxing out scratches (keep in mind that if the paint is too badly compromised, there’s no amount of elbow grease that can fix it without requiring a paint job). The attention to detail was stellar… every inch of my car was clean and shiny. The interior looked fantastic and they even cleaned under the hood. Although this was my first experience with Auto Magic, I already feel like I can trust my car in his hands. I really appreciate his genuine love of cars and willingness to help with car-​related referrals (auto body, tires, etc.).
I plan to keep my car for a looooong time, so this is a wonderful annual present I can give my baby.

Auto Magic does incredible work. My 11 year old car looks brand new, not an easy feat considering my two small children drop everything, including plenty of food, on my floor & seats. Luis takes his time and gets all the «nooks & crannies». I’m a repeat customer and they are always prompt & professional from beginning to end. I can’t refer them enough. If only all companies were run this way.

these guys are awesome. they’re easy to coordinate with (though sometimes booked a week out, so plan ahead) and they do a great job. my 11 year old rover looked new when they were done with it. and i was a less-​than-​perfect customer, but they’ve always been super kind and patient in their dealing with me. thanks, guys!

Like everyone says — Auto Magic is great. They arrived on time, got right to work and my 2008 Ford Focus looks like new. Luis even removed an old registration sticker on my window that I’ve been trying for years to get off. Highly, highly recommended!

Got into a fender bender with a coworker and needed her car buffed and shined up. Mark was very helpful and is quick to answer my call. Called a few other places and the service was nowhere near as helpful as this place. Will be using them again to get my car shined up and ready. Thanks again!

Had a really great experience here. Mark was prompt in returning my call and made my first detailing experience a really positive one. He was upfront and honest about what scratches he could and couldn’t fix and though I don’t understand exactly everything that was done to my car, it looks great! Next time I need my car detailed, I will definitely return!

This is my THIRD update. Once again, I asked Mark to come wash, wax, and polish my car. He’s great! He works hard to make his customers happy. Mark fit me in his busy schedule, and he came on the day/​time I requested!
I feel it’s important to give a little background on my situation. Mark and Luis have worked on both of my cars. One of those cars has sentimental value to me. The car was owned by my father who passed away three months ago. I attempted to wax his car myself, however, I managed to create swirls in the paint during the process. I was extremely upset, and I did not think any of those swirls could be removed. In addition to the swirls, Mark removed not one but THREE (YES, THREE!) very large scratches from the back of my Audi. I estimate the scratches to measure roughly six inches each.
I could not help but become emotional upon seeing the exceptional outcome of Mark’s workmanship. This man loves what he does, and he loves his customers. What I admire most about Auto Magic Detailing is they will go above and beyond to make their customers happy.
If you’re currently looking for someone you can trust to tend to your car, then seek out Auto Magic Detailing. I’m extremely thankful for them!
TIP: Don’t forget to tip these guys!

I found Auto magic on Unilocal.The best hand detail I’ve had since moving to Manhattan Beach 15 years ago. Mark & Luis were very knowledgeable and friendly. Mark even called me a few days later to follow up on some information I had requested. I would highly recommend them.

I would just like to say how helpful Mark was he really knows his stuff and goes way out of his way to help his customers, outstanding customer service!!!

Just used their service today.
They came around 845 am. Finished around 1220 noon.
My car is about 6 years old hatchback. I do my own auto detailing in the past years. I pretty much almost have all the equipment to keep the inside, outside and ingine, the tires, underbody area clean and shiny but my car became the utlility car for howling gardening supplies, equipments, I have 5 small dogs, my sister splilled dog food etc etc
And so the dust and fur and dirt, inside starts to accumulate since I cant get to them plus by back problem.
I did not wash my car for a month since I was going to have this service done.
I pretty much removed all the extra supply out of the car and washed the original mat/​capet in the washing machine, yes I still have the original mats.
Outside result: 4. stars Cleaned and shined the car the same as I can do it except for some detail.
INside Result: 4. stars Cleaned it 35−40% more as I can do. He lceaned the seats well, took some stains out.. Since some dog hair are embedded in the carpet, it was still in some area.
There areas that are missed, the bucket seat are foldable and there are still tons of dried stuff behind it while I was placing the new seat covers. I have to clean it myself. There were still gross dog food here and there in the extra tire compartment which I probably missed many moons ago.
Well at least I didnt have to turn myself upside down trying to clean my car this time.
My review is basing on how I can do it but then again I would meticulously spend almost 5 – 6 hours getting the car is a good state so my review is very strict.
Will I use them again?
I am not sure.
Since I dont usually use this service, maybe if my back aches more again lol

Boy… do these guys need a 5 star review!!!
I found Auto Magic Detailing through Unilocal and hired them solely on the good reviews. I can definitely say that I was very please with the service.
I spoke with Mark and he explained what they specialize in and the services they offer. He also offered to pick up my car and drop it off after it’s done. How CONVENIENT!!! So I made an appointment.
Once I saw how amazing my car looked, I made an appointment for my husband’s car, and this time Mark told me that they could get the car detailed right in front of my garage. Even BETTER!!!
I can’t recommend Mark & Luis enough… Great Guys! Great Service!

Mark and Luis have been taking care of my cars for at least a decade. They are detail oriented, reliable and efficient. My interiors are very well used and they make the inside sparkle just like the outside! Recently Mark hellped my son restore weather stripping on a 1964 Falcon. The seals are not leaking anymore and it looks like it did the day it rolled out of the factory. He also consults me on maintenance, ding repair and overall various ways to keep my car in tip top shape for resale!. They also go above and beyond to make minor surface scrathes disappear and restore the cars back to their glory days. It also helps that he knows how to take care of older cars as well as luxury automobiles. I highly recommend Auto Magic if you want someone knowledgeable, trustworthy and careful!

I bought a 2014 Honda Accord in August, and still «baby» it, since I haven’t had a new car in about 20 yrs.
I noticed some white scuff marks on my passenger side rear door. It wasn’t dented or scratched, but still annoying to see on my new car. I wasn’t sure if I should just buy some rubbing compound or what, but I decided to give Mark a call and ask if he can remove it.
Today, I brought my car over, and Mark took care of both scuffs right away. He even looked around my car to see if there were any more that he could remove.
We had a great conversation and could have keep chatting for hours, but we both had other things we had to do, so we will catch up again soon. Mark didn’t even charge me for his time and service. I will certainly use his detailing services on this car and my 95 Toyota 4-​Runner (to make it look as good as it can be for the age).
Mark truly enjoys what he is doing and it shows. Thanks Mark!

I can definitely see why this place has such high ratings. Just got off the phone with Mark. I told him my problem and he told me what I needed to do. It was something other than the services he offers. He wxplained in detail and guided me to some places around the area.
Someone who takes the time to help strangers who are not even his customers, has great character.
When I need a car wash or wax, I will definitely use this company.

Just picked up my A3 from Mark, and I have to say he’s lived up to these reviews! Excellent, friendly service, and my car looks fantastic in and out. He even did the engine bay and the pride in workmanship definitely shows! I’ll be back for sure. Highly recommended.

I hired these guys based on their high ratings on Unilocal.I was a little disappointed. No problems with their service. They were responsive, on-​time, hard working. But I was wasn’t fully satisfied with the results. I have a 2008 Saab, black exterior, in good condition. I hired a full detail, $ 150. When they were finished the car looked clean and shinny from a distance, but up close there was a lot of water spots and other imperfections that I expected would have been buffed out. The interior looked good though. All in all a good job, but not to my expectations based on the price and the other reviews.
Post Script: After I posted my review, the company owner personally visited me out of concern that I wasn’t 100% satisfied. High kudos for such integrity.
