Auto detailing in Emeryville, CA.
Emeryville is basically our backyard — about 4 miles north of the Oakland shop along the I-80 corridor. You're sitting right at the Bay Bridge toll plaza approach, which means constant stop-and-go diesel exposure, heavy brake dust, and salt spray off the bay hitting the entire western edge of the city. The Bay Street retail crowd parks outside in direct sun, and the live-work loft demographic along Hollis and Doyle skews heavily toward Teslas, Rivians, and a real Porsche Taycan + BMW i4 presence — Emeryville has quietly become one of the densest EV pockets in the East Bay. Bay Bridge commuters into SF deal with constant bridge debris and salt-air corrosion. STEK PPF on the front end is the right call. For Emeryville — ceramic coating and detailing are mobile or shop, same price; we run mobile across Watergate, Bay Street, Hollis, and the lofts. PPF is shop-only (controlled environment required for film install) — a straight 10-minute shot down to our 3425 Ettie St shop.
