Plymouth VIP Carwash & Auto Service extends the reach of a typical wash ‘n’ go center with professional detailing services and a full-service repair shop. For more than 25 years, cars have pulled up to the pump for a full tank of gas and then headed into the 112-foot wash tunnel for a date with soft cloths and high-pressure jets. The Plymouth crew also doles out complete interior and exterior detailing packages, calling upon mink oil to condition seats and paint sealant to leave exteriors as spotless and glazed as an immortal donut. In the garage, ASE-certified technicians tune up engines, change oil, and perform a list of other maintenance and repair services

At Midwest Detailing and Auto Reconditioning, owner John Carlson's team of techs washes, buffs, and waxes vehicles' exteriors with high-quality 3M products. But they don't stop there. In fact, of the business's dozens of detailing services, more than half take place inside the vehicle. During an interior cleaning, staffers vacuum and shampoo upholstery, remove stains, and even offset water damage. Like a tree that's grown through a wire fence or away from a weirdo with a chainsaw, the team knows how to adapt to the circumstances, choosing different products based on the color and material of the vehicle's interior.

When they're not crawling under the souped-up hoods of Camaro Z28s and vintage Chevelles, the ASE-certified technicians at C A Performance reinvigorate domestic and foreign vehicles with an array of automotive services. In addition to meticulous detailing sessions, 15-minute oil changes, and fuel injections that help immunize cars from the flu, the full-service facility enhances engine revs with brand new parts from Edelbrock, Holley, and Hurst Shifters.

At MP3 Interface, MECP-certified technicians revamp vehicles of all makes and models with electronic installations and detailing services. Remote-start and security systems from Viper and Avital lodge into dashboards, and seat heaters warm up upholstery easier than trips to a drive-thru microwave. The staff muffles backseat drivers by equipping rides with Kenwood stereos, speakers, subwoofers, and OEM integration for MP3 players. Technicians also care for auto aesthetics, with detailing techs ejecting seats to vacuum hard-to-reach spots and scouring vehicle shells with hand washes, clay bars, and products from Armor All and Rain-X. A comfortable waiting area stocked with complimentary WiFi and DirecTV keeps drivers distracted as they await their vehicle’s makeover.:

The American Lung Association of Minnesota recognizes the 2 million gallons of Blue Planet gasoline pumped every day at Plymouth Station Holiday & Auto Center as a “Clean Air Choice”. Blue Planet boasts that its fuel’s low emissions equate to removing 40,000 cars off the road, even while delivering the same number of miles per gallon as traditional gas. Each eco-friendly fill-up also saves money when paired with certain car washes, which claim to get cars in and out of the 112-foot scrubbing tunnel in five minutes or less, even when the line is around the block or the parking lot has been freshly carameled.
