Detail and clear bra
Any suggestions for places within an hour drive of Franklin MA who can do correction, coating (like cquarz) and clear bra (like xpel)?
I saw a post by Red Devil's Rebel suggesting Northeast Auto Salon - but it's in Hudson NH, a bit far for me. Thanks!

Unless you know a place her's and automobilia salon are the good ones I know of and both are a drive for you so It comes down to how much do you love your car.

My detailer is in Fairfield County CT (SW quadrant). Again, it is a drive but they did my car right! Awesome dude too. A1 Mobile Detailing.

If you want CQuartz & you want it done by an approved installer (CarPro is very picky about who they officially endorse to install their product) then, Hudson, NH & SE CT was the closest locations to me when I was looking. However, there are other detail shops around who will apply the retail available versions of the CQuartz line for you and will probably do a very good job (as in Pat's case), I just can't personally vouch for or recommend any of them since I've only used that one shop so far.
If you do go for a ceramic coating of some kind though, make sure the shop preps the paint really well - paint correction and a really good polish job is key!

ddanj,
Based on the information you have provided, we have two qualified installers within 30 minutes of you, one located in Framingham and the other in North Attleboro. While you mentioned you do not want to drive very far, as Evil-Bee-NH mentioned, Automobilia Auto Salon does great work and would certainly take great care of you, if you were to make the drive to their shop. If you have any more questions feel free to reach out and let us know. |

I had my Gen 6 done at Automotive Elegance in Andover MA. I have my C7 done at NorthEast Auto Salon in Hudson NH.
Either of these places do excellent work. Not cheap, but it shouldn't be. Fair price for good product.

Thank you everyone!
I have to say clear bra pricing around here is rediculous. I got the whole front end of my current car done for $1200 when I lived in Virginia. So far around here I'm seeing prices between $1700 and $2000. Crazy. I still have a bit of time to shop around until my car gets here.

Did you get this work done? I’m having mine done Sunday. Wondering who you used and what brand.

I was going to get paint coating done by Justin at Final Inspection in Rochester MA. For now I decided to try it myself with Optimum Gloss-coat, haven't done it yet though.
