About the shop

Two guys, one garage, our own standards.

O'Connor Detailing is a small, independently-owned shop in Peoria Heights — just me and my teammate Grayson, both 23, both fully in on this. I started detailing on the side while studying automotive tech in college. After graduating in 2023, I took a private training course in paint correction and ceramic coating and went all-in.

We're not a dealership. We're not a corporate chain. We're the underdogs, and that's the way we like it. It means we answer our own phones, we know every car that comes through the door, and we turn down work we can't do right.

These guys treated my truck like it was their own. Communication was perfect from the first quote to the day I picked it up. It looks better now than the day I drove it off the lot.

I was quoted thousands more at a dealer and they were up front that I didn't even need a full correction. Honest, skilled, and the Corvette is glass. Will be back for my wife's GLE.

Had them tint my daily and coat a weekend car. Both turned out perfect. These two are the real deal — young guys, but they know what they're doing and they care. Supporting small business has never been easier.

How long does ceramic coating actually last?+

Depending on the coating we install and how you maintain it, anywhere from 2 to 7+ years. We only use coatings we trust, and we'll tell you up front what to expect from each one.

Is ceramic coating worth it for a daily driver?+

Honestly, yes — if you plan to keep the vehicle for a few years. Easier washes, no more wax, better protection against bird droppings, tree sap, and salt. It pays for itself in time saved and resale value.

What's the difference between ceramic coating and wax?+

Wax sits on top of your paint and washes off in weeks. A ceramic coating chemically bonds to your paint and lasts years. It's a completely different level of protection.

How long will my car be at the shop?+

Most projects are 1–3 days. Paint correction + ceramic coating on a full-size truck might take longer. We'll give you an exact timeline with your quote.

Do you offer maintenance plans?+

Yes. We offer scheduled maintenance packages built specifically for coated vehicles. It's the best way to protect the work we did and keep your paint at its best long-term.

Do I need an appointment?+

Yes — we book by appointment so every vehicle gets our full attention. The easiest way to get on the calendar is to request a quote through the form below or give us a call.
