There is an art to the automobile. Each swooping line, each chrome accent, each stylish piece of trim, is carefully chosen by a small army of engineers and craftsmen to make the automobile something that doesn’t just move you—it moves you.
But once it leaves the assembly line, that automobile enters a world of danger. Whether it’s road debris looking to damage your exterior surfaces, the sunlight beaming down to fade a finish, or the perpetual onslaught of lovebugs and pollen infiltrating a paint job, your automobile’s beauty faces an assault on all fronts.
For 25 years, Auto Spa has been your automobile’s best defense against the fading, hazing and hazards the world throws at it. “We’re thankful we’ve made it this long, and we’re excited about what’s in store,” Auto Spa owner Ryan Brogan said.
Before we discuss what’s in store, we must look to the services already offered that have made Auto Spa the island’s choice for a quarter of a century. As you’d expect, their bread and butter is detailing—restoring your car to its original showroom beauty with exacting detail and a dedication to excellence. Alongside that, Auto Spa has long offered XPEL window tinting, headlight restoration and paintless dent repair—services that carry the same devotion to a job done right.
But perhaps the one offering that keeps customers coming back is their unwavering commitment to customer service. “We pay attention to our customers and we still believe in old-school customer service,” Brogan said. “We really do strive to make sure everyone’s happy. We always make it correct. After all, it makes everything a lot easier to have people running around saying good things about you.”
It’s a combination of quality and customer care that has kept Auto Spa at the top of Hilton Head Island’s automotive class. But what’s truly exciting, as Brogan mentioned, is what’s in store.
As the automotive world continuously adapts and improves, so do the technologies that keep automobiles looking showroom-ready no matter what the road throws on them. A couple of more recent additions to the service offerings at Auto Spa are already showing up on some of the island’s most stylish cars.
The first is XPEL paint protection film. “It’s a virtually invisible film with features including self-healing, stain resistance and superior optical clarity,” Brogan said. An invisible shield against rock chips and bug damage that can ruin a paint job, this film is a transparent wonder. “More than anything it helps to retain the value of the car. The money you’d spend on that film is nothing compared to the depreciation that just a couple of rock chips will bring to your car’s value. It’s one of our more popular offerings.”
The next product protects your car from some of the most unavoidable damage your car will face: the swirls and scratches that come from cleaning it. With the protective ceramic coatings by GTECHNIQ and XPEL offered by Auto Spa, that inevitable deterioration is a thing of the past. “It offers an extra layer of protection, makes it easier to clean, helps to repel dirt and pollen, lets it shine like you’ve never seen before, and keeps it looking newer longer,” Brogan said. “It’s very hydrophobic, meaning that your car will bead water like wax on steroids, and ensures that wherever that ceramic is laid, you won’t get swirls from washing it.”
These high-tech additions expand on a variety of services that have helped Auto Spa live up to their motto, “Waxing the competition since 1996,” and are delivered with the same exacting standard of superior customer service.
Auto Spa is located at 30 Palmetto Bay Rd., Hilton Head Island. For more information, visit trustautospa.com.
