I'm Max. I run a mobile detail rig out of Portland and pull up to driveways, parking lots, and slips with all the gear and product to actually fix the dirty parts.

The Process

How a detail actually works.

Five steps. No back-and-forth. You always know what comes next.

01

Send a few photos

Text or email pictures of your vehicle — inside, outside, anywhere it's rough. The dirtier the photos, the more accurate the quote.

02

Tell me what bugs you

Pet hair? Oxidation? A drink that spilled six weeks ago? Whatever's bothering you, that's what I build the service around.

03

Lock in the price

I send back a flat number. No "starting at" runaround once we've talked it through. Pay only after the work is done.

04

I show up to you

Driveway, parking lot, slip, RV storage — wherever it sits. I bring my product, hose, and extension cord. I just need access to one outdoor faucet and a power outlet.

05

Walk-around, then drive off

We go over the work together when it's done so you see what got fixed. Quick care tips so it stays this way.

Pricing

One number to start. Across the board.

Every Service

Every service starts at $125. The final number depends on size, condition, and any add-ons. Send photos and I'll lock it in before I touch the truck.

Service Area

I come to you.

Mobile across the Portland-Vancouver metro.

Anywhere your vehicle sits is fine — driveway, lot, slip, RV storage. I work within roughly 30 miles of Portland. Outside that? Send a note anyway. For the right job, I'll travel.

FAQ

The things people actually ask.

It's the floor. Most cars land between $125 and $300 depending on size and how rough they are. Heavy stains, pet hair, ceramic spray, and bigger vehicles push the number up. You'll know the final price before I start.

Yes. Class A, fifth wheels, travel trailers, motorhomes, fishing boats, wakeboard boats — anything with wheels or a hull. RVs and boats get their own process for oxidation, black streaks, vinyl, and gelcoat.

Interior or exterior on its own runs 2 to 4 hours. A full detail on a car is usually 4 to 6. RVs and boats can run a full day depending on size and how dirty they are.

Photos help a lot. With them you get a real number. Without them you get a range. Either works — just be honest about the condition.

That's the whole setup — I come to you with all my gear, product, a hose, and an extension cord. All I need on-site is access to one outdoor faucet and a power outlet. Easy.

Vehicle size, how dirty it is (light dust vs. ground-in stains, pet hair, mildew), how contaminated the paint is, and any add-ons like ceramic spray or headlight restoration.
