OUR STORY • KIHEI, MAUI
A Difficult Season Led to Something Bigger
ISLAND ELITE DETAIL • KIHEI STUDIO
“We both loved the work and saw an opportunity to build something stronger together.”
WHERE IT ALL STARTED
Island Elite Detail began during one of the hardest seasons of my life. When my daughter moved to Georgia, I was in a low place, and sitting behind a desk all day only made it harder. I needed to move, work with my hands, and put my energy into something I genuinely loved.
I had spent years caring for my own vehicles and already owned many of the tools, so I started detailing. It gave me something positive to focus on, and I fell in love with the process, the transformation, and the pride that came from doing the work well.
JOINING FORCES
Along the way, I met Brent, who was running his own detailing business. We shared the same passion and saw an opportunity to build something stronger together. We joined forces and helped transform Island Elite Detail into the growing team and dedicated Kihei studio it is today.
Today, we’re proud to help Maui vehicle owners protect and enjoy their vehicles through honest recommendations and work we’re proud to put our names on.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Questions? We've Got Answers
Learn what to expect, explore your options, and find the right service for your vehicle.
What services do you offer?
We offer professional ceramic coatings, premium interior and exterior detailing, paint correction, clear-coat restoration, and ongoing maintenance. Each service is tailored to your vehicle’s condition and your goals.
How much does detailing or ceramic coating cost?
Pricing depends on your vehicle’s size, condition, and the service selected. Detailing packages can be viewed and booked online, while ceramic coatings, paint correction, and restoration projects may require a personalized estimate.
How long does a ceramic coating last?
We offer ceramic coating options designed for different ownership goals, including three-year, eight-year, and permanent coating options. Actual longevity depends on the coating selected and how the vehicle is maintained.
Does my vehicle need paint correction before ceramic coating?
Not necessarily. Some vehicles need only a light paint enhancement, while others benefit from more extensive correction to address swirls, oxidation, or water spots. We evaluate the paint and recommend the appropriate preparation.
Can damaged or failing clear coat be restored?
In some cases, yes. Depending on its condition, weathered or failing clear coat may be improved with our clear-coat restoration process. We inspect the affected areas before recommending the best solution.
Do I bring my vehicle to your shop, or do you offer mobile service?
Most services are completed at our dedicated Kihei studio, where we can provide a controlled environment and professional results. Mobile service may be available when bringing your vehicle to the shop is not practical.
How long will my appointment take?
Service times vary based on your vehicle’s condition and the work involved. Detailing appointments generally take several hours, while paint correction, ceramic coating, and restoration services may require additional time.
How do I book or request an estimate?
You can book detailing services online or request a personalized estimate for ceramic coatings, paint correction, and clear-coat restoration. If you are unsure which service fits your needs, call or text us for guidance.
For the design, use a white background, centered heading, and an accordion approximately 850–950px wide with thin gray dividers and red + icons. Keep the answers collapsed initially.
Where is your detailing studio located, and what areas do you serve?
Our studio is located at 330 Ohukai Rd., Unit 117, in Kihei, Hawaii. We serve vehicle owners throughout Maui, including Kihei, Wailea, Kahului, Wailuku, and surrounding communities.
Will a ceramic coating prevent scratches or water spots?
Ceramic coatings help protect your vehicle’s finish from environmental exposure and make routine cleaning easier, but they are not scratch-proof or completely resistant to water spots. Proper washing and maintenance are still important.
What’s the difference between paint correction and clear-coat restoration?
Paint correction improves existing paint by addressing defects such as swirls, oxidation, haze, and light scratches. Clear-coat restoration is designed for certain finishes showing more advanced deterioration or clear-coat failure. We evaluate your vehicle to determine which approach is appropriate.
Do you offer maintenance after detailing or ceramic coating?
Yes. We offer ongoing maintenance services to help keep your vehicle clean, preserve its appearance, and maintain the performance of its protective coating. We can recommend a schedule based on your vehicle and how it is used.
