I honestly have no complaints…Mark at Birmingham Auto Detailing was very transparent about what he was going to do and how much it would cost as well, including the turnaround to pick the vehicle up. He's easy to work with and is quite knowledgeable about his work and the product(s) he uses. It doesn't hurt either that Mark has over 10 years worth of experience, which was my deciding factor to go with him. This was the first time for me to use this kind of service on any of my vehicles and I was not disappointed… I was having paint correction on my 20' Ford Edge ST and it looks 100 times better than what it did when it was new, making the metallic paint pop even harder! I'd use Birmingham Auto Detailing again…you'll see the quality of work is worth the money spent!!

Thanks Paul! I try to be as transparent as possible. I don't try to sell people anything they don't want or don't need. Glad you like FEYNLAB™ coatings they are magnificent!

I took my '85 Mercedes wagon that had extremely oxidized paint to Mark in the hopes that he could make it presentable while I got a few other things repaired and determined whether to keep or sell it. Mark worked with me on the best options and allowed me to see a section done before proceeding with the remainder to make sure I didn't want to repaint instead. Overall a good experience and he was flexible around my busy schedule. It turned out great and I'll be back when/if I decide to proceed with a new paint job. Don't hesitate. This guy knows what he's doing!

Mark did an absolutely amazing job with our Mini Cooper Countryman! He repainted the bumpers and corrected the paint on the remainder of the vehicle. Everything was done in a very professional and timely manner, which is even more impressive since this was done over the holidays. The match work is impeccable and we could not be more pleased. We would highly recommend him and will be back again in the future!

Mark has just finished our second Honda Pilot and it looks spectacular!!! Our first Pilot is a 2019, coated by Mark within the first month of purchasing it and still looks brand new… that's why we didn't hesitate for Mark to ceramic coat our second one within a week of purchasing. It's best to seal in a great unblemished factory finish to keep its showroom shine. It actually looks glossier that the showroom shine after Mark finished coating and the paint now has a smoothness that feels slicker than wax. Water beads off faster than you can pour it on. I don't wash my car regularly… sometimes a couple of months pass when I can get to it…then my glossy Pilot reappears as new. Great way to enjoy a beautiful finish is to enjoy it for years. Mark's detail and paint background sets him apart from others in the detail business…clearly a step above!!! Thanks again Mark for making our Pilots sparkle!!!

The ultimate care for the body of your vehicle. The coatings used are of the highest grade. My Porsche Panamera came out absolutely beautiful. The gloss on this kit car now is a mirror. Highly recommended. Worth every penny. 👍

After 11 years, and with a failing clear coat, my Nissan 370Z was in serious need of a new paint job. I had called many businesses around the Birmingham area to find someone who would be interested in doing the job... to no avail! I found Birmingham Auto Detailing and Wet Sanding Studio in a Google search and sent them message on their website explaining what I thought was needed. Mark contacted me promptly and was very knowledgeable and helpful. He requested pictures of my car, and after seeing the damage to the clear coat, suggested a full respray. I was expecting to wait several months, but he gave me a date that was about a month out. He worked on the car about 1 1/2 weeks and sent me updated pictures throughout the process. I was very satisfied with the final, mirror finish! The car looks beautiful. I would highly recommend Birmingham Auto Detailing to anyone needing a pro who provides excellent results!

My entire white truck (paint, glass, trim, etc) was completely covered in a fine black industrial paint/adhesive overspray. I had several detailers look at it and either referred me to a body shop or told me they were unable to help. Mark was able to remove the overspray and was kind enough to work me in over the weekend so it didn't have time to cause further damage. Additionally, he placed a beautiful ceramic coating to help protect the truck in the future. Mark was very professional, communicated well, and promptly completed the difficult job of restoring my finish! Highly recommended!

Mark took the time to patiently explain five different parameters that make up our experience of a fine automotive finish. I asked for his advice and he gave it. He showed me what needed work, what should be left alone, and distinguished between what would and would not be worth the expense of doing. The price was quite reasonable for the excellent quality and the extent of the work. He took a beautiful but used ten year old Aston Martin and made it stunning. My friends who saw the car before and after could not believe the quite noticeable difference. I am tempted to park the car now and just admire it. Mark encouraged me to drive my car, and followed up with practical advice on how to take batter care of the finish myself over the miles ahead. So, that's what I'm doing! I truly appreciate Mark's diligence, professionalism, personal attention, and skilled experience.

Mark does impeccable work and his attention to detail is unbelievable. He has perform magic on two of my automobiles, and currently in the process of paint correction on my another vehicle for me. Mark takes pride in the work he performs on your vehicle and always deliver more than one would ever expect. I highly recommend Mark if you want your vehicle professional detailed.

Mark is a rare individual who takes great pride in his work! His skill and vast knowledge took my already beautiful brand new Toyota Supra and pushed the beauty of the paint far beyond my expectations of what it could ever possibly look like. With his paint correction and coating, the vehicle truly looks like belongs in a showroom! 😍 Mark's service doesn't stop there...he gave us care instructions and details on products to maintain that look and protection level for years to come. We watched paint transformations on his Facebook page and were already impressed before we contacted Mark. He is passionate about what he does, and that comes through in the end result that he achieves. He was also great at communicating with my husband and I to update us on the process and answer all of our questions. Based on his work and our experience, Mark will be our go to guy for paint correction and coatings. I highly recommend him!

Mark is an absolute genius at what he does. I picked up a brand new Stinger (Indigo Special Edition), 1 of only 500 in the world, and the paint was in terrible shape. It had a dirty haze to it, and was covered in swirl marks and holograms and clear coat overspray and you name it, this car had it. He took his time, did a grade 3 paint correction and a graphemes coating. The results are absolutely incredible! It brought out the metal flake in the paint, the two tone purple in the color and gave it a depth and gloss that looked car museum worthy! Mark's skill and professionalism are top notch. He is not the cheapest, he is the best, and that's what counts in my book! He devotes his attention to one car ata time, and his attention to detail and work are of the highest standard.

Mark does some amazing work! I brought him my new 2020 Laramie 4x4 Black Ram with Night edition and the finish was horrible. It was covered in swirl marks and scratches and a few deep scratches. The metallic paint had a dull finish to it and by the time Mark was done it looks like it was painted in chrome the finish has such a gloss and mirror link shine. You can now see the actual metal fleck and sparkle. Looking forward to testing out how the ceramic does on a long road trip!! I would highly recommend Mark's passion and craftsmanship.

Mark is nothing short of a miracle worker. His skill and expertise took my already beautiful brand new Porsche and pushed the beauty of the paint far beyond my expectations of what it could ever possibly look like. With his full paint correction and a glass coating, the vehicle truly looks like it cost tens of thousands of dollars more, and the finish (following his care instructions), will maintain that look and protection level for years to come. With that kind of skill and effort, he could transform most any vehicle into a work of art. His attention to detail and care for my vehicle was on a higher level than even the obsessive owner that I am. He genuinely loves what he does, and that comes through in the end result that he achieves. New car with fresh paint, old car with tired or finicky paint, Your best bet, by far, it to let Mark apply his vast knowledge and skill to give you the absolute best result for your need. From the first contact via e-mail, to the day that I picked my car up and was blown away by the end result, he was friendly, helpful, honest, and quick to provide updates on his process. He took a great deal of time to explain the processes that he used on my car, and give me invaluable information for the care of my vehicle, to prolong the finish that he achieved. Trust him, listen very carefully, heed his advice well, and you will be completely satisfied with your investment. He is absolutely the best, and his talent is worth every penny. You will not be disappointed.

I have been using Mark for seven years and he has always exceeded my meticulous expectations. I wouldn't use anyone else. If you're looking for a half day buff & wax; cutting corners to get you out the door, Mark is not your guy. But if you want attention to detail, coupled with outstanding results give him a call. You will you will not be disappointed.

Mark did an incredible job for me on a 95 G320. It was in pretty rough shape when I took it to him, and after a week with Mark - it looked like new. He's excellent and takes great pride in his work.

First off let me say that Mark Cox is an outstanding guy. He is up front and to the point which I appreciate very much. I brought my brand new car to him for some paint correction and a ceramic coating. Yes even new cars get hammered by the dealerships upon delivery. Mark did an amazing job and I couldn't be happier with the results. Definitely looks way better than it did coming off the lot. Mark will tell you up front that he may be more expensive in certain areas but there's a reason for that. He's a perfectionist when it comes to correcting paint. Attention to detail and being a master of his craft is what sets him apart. Thanks again Mark!!

Words alone cannot describe the transformational change from the paint correction, followed with Swissvax Endurance wax or 22PLE coatings, that Mark passionately applied to my cars. Over the last two years, I have had an Agate Grey GT4, Guards Red GT3, & White 911 Turbo each spend 4-5 days with Mark. The end result is simply stunning! The "investment" that you make with Birmingham Auto Detail will be second to none.

Easily one of the best examples of customer service I've ever seen. Mark has an incredible attention to detail and a passion for his work. From my research his prices are the most fair in about a 200-300 mile range. Mark was fantastic to work with and was committed to making sure I was 100% satisfied with the work done. I'd highly recommend Mark's work!

Mark has a vast knowledge of various paint systems, from the old school single stage lacquer paint system, to urethane 2 stage base coat /clear coat systems as well as the newer water based paint systems used today. He is an expert in all aspects of detailing. His product choices are top of the line, safe and effective. Leather cleaning and conditioning? Yes he can and does it well. Customer service is top notch, always upfront and to the point.
