Incredibly great work! My car interior is pristine, super clean in every crack and crevice. It looks brand new!! Thanks, Steve, for doing such a great job.

Steve did an exceptional job. He was flexible regarding scheduling and left my car cleaner than it has been in years all while maintain social distancing. I'll definitely be coming back.

Steve was very easy to work with and was flexible with my time frame. He did a great job and the truck looked great! We will be returning to EXL in the near future. Steve was honest and the price he quoted was what was charged with no surprises. Thank you EXL for being an honest business!

My 2019 black Forester was in need of a good wash and wax! Steve made it shine! It had not looked so good since I drove it off the lot last fall. He even cleaned my front floor mats that wasn't included in the detail.

I went off-roading on my new Tacoma and went somewhere really tight and had the misfortune of having branches scratch my clear coat on my Tacoma. I went to Steve here and the truck looks better than new! I was quoted something through the phone and the actual cost was also cheaper. Great and friendly guy, and the truck looks great!

Steve did a great job with shampooing the interior of my car. Smells good and looks brand new again, and on top of it, he only need my car for a few hours. Great work. Would highly recommend.

I've gone to Steve a few times now for a complete interior and exterior detail and have been more than satisfied each time. Never been disappointed or had any problems. Highly recommend

Disappointed and very unhappy with the job completed. We read the reviews which all are good and we decided to bring my Rav4 to EXL Auto Detailing. It is a used car we just bought and want it to look like a new car. The owner say it will cost for us but we decided to go ahead and get our car detailed anyway. That was a huge waste of time and money. When the job finished, we noticed the exterior was detailed really well except tires. The engine had been left untouched. Dirty spots on seats and doors, stains on doors panels, dog hairs not removed. Scratches not removed like the owner promised the first time we met up. Overall the job has half done and the owner didn't go into details. Will not recommend.

Steve did an amazing job on detailing my car. I have never had my car detailed before but now I am a believer, my car looks better and newer than when I bought it! I was almost afraid to get inside of it, it was so clean! Amazing job, and great prices as well!

Steve is amazing! My car looks even better than when I bought it. I feel like I am driving a brand new car. All the dog hair and grime are gone. My car made a trip from IA to PA and back with 2 dogs and you can't even tell. Thank you so much!

Steve did a fantastic job on my girlfriend Nissan Altima SR Coupe. She carries her 100 lb german shepherd in the car so there is dog hair everywhere and he got out all the hair even in the tight back seat area. He also addressed some scratches in the paint, that I was not expecting him to try to address, he really made the paint pop since her car is stored outside and was washed only about 8 months prior. The dressed the leather seats and door panels and plastics and the car looked honestly brand new. It smelled brand new as well. I would recommend Steve, his attention to detail for his work is fantastic. He has also washed my personal cars which are all ceramic coated, and his meticulous wash process is the only one i trust in the area to not damage my ceramic coating and to ensure that my paint is swirl free.

EXL under Steve’s ownership does a phenomenal job at reasonable prices! I have used his company to detail 3 cars in the last year and he just finished my 2017 Mazda Miata. It looks like it’s factory fresh, and just driven off the showroom floor. There were some significant paint scuffs from a black car door onto my white paint, and now you can’t tell that it was ever scuffed. Steve’s detail included many things that some services don’t even think about - the exhaust tips were polished to a mirror shine and windshield wiper arms were finely detailed! Steve takes great pride and effort in his work. You can’t go wrong with choosing this company for your auto detailing needs. He also picked up and delivered the cars, which is very convenient.

I was very happy with the results. I got a ceramic coating put on my new car and it looks great. It also was affordable. He even cleaned out the interior of my car which I was not expecting and cleaned out the tailpipes. You can tell he cares about the quality of his work. Very friendly, I plan on coming back for interior detail work on my car.

My favorite detailer in iowa city. He did really good job. They extract the seats. The carpet. The best experience, I've had with a detailer in iowa city. You wouldn't regret taking your car there. Great guy, friendly, does really good work.

Contacting and scheduling service was very smooth. Owner was prompt in responding and also sent reminders. My SUV was very messy and had not been professionally detailed. Drop off and pick up were very easy. The interior detailing was amazing. Staines I thought were permanent were removed. All surfaces were immaculately cleaned. Will definitely repeat!

Steve did an amazing job on our car! We’ve never had it detailed but really needed a refresh and protective coat before winter. She looks like a new car! He offered local pick up and drop off since we live close and worked pretty dang quick - couldn’t have been an easier service! Would recommend

Did a great job! Was even considerate enough to put some belongings I forgot about in a zip lock baggy for me and communication was great. Location was easy to find.

Steve is great to work with, I got my headlights restored from being dingy yellow to crystal clear. Very happy with the results. Returning soon for some clear coat and paint imperfection repairs. Highly recommend!

I ended up with scratches on both sides of my 4runner that went the whole length of the vehicle. Steve provided me with an accurate quote for a paint correction and completely exceed my expectations with the work he did! I’m very happy with the results and definitely recommend reaching out to him!
