Gtechniq accredited
Gtechniq trains and approves the installers who apply its professional coatings. We’re one of them, which is why our coatings come with 5 and 9 year warranties.
We also run Detail Theory, the detailing supplies store at the same address, so we work with these products every day, in the studio and behind the counter.
Your car while it’s here
Leaving a new car with someone for two days is a big ask. Here’s what happens to it.
- Inside, always
- Your car stays in the studio from drop-off to pick-up. It's never parked outside overnight.
- On camera
- The studio is covered by CCTV.
- Insured
- Your car is covered by our insurance the whole time it's with us.
- Keys leave with us
- Every night the keys go off-site. They're never left in the building with the car.

Couldn’t have asked for a better job. Tint & paint correction got my Ute looking the best it ever has. Jayme was very easy to deal with and gave me comfort that my car was in great hands

Jayme and the team at Detail Theory are subject matter experts. I was blown away by the look of my Hilux after a ceramic coating over the weekend. Quoted at a great price, and turned around in a timely manner. I’ll definitely be back

Amazing work done by Jayme when he Ceramic coated my Evo X. He revived the look of the car and used the best products around, while taking the utmost care. Super knowledgeable and friendly, knows all his products and will be going back to get my cars detailed and for all my cleaning products.

Took my 2025 Model 3 Performance to Detail Theory Studio, and Jayme did an incredible job. I thought the paint was in pretty good shape after my first year of ownership, but the depth and clarity Jayme managed to pull out of the finish is on another level. The gloss is unbelievable, and every single edge and contour looks completely spotless. Jayme’s attention to detail and craft is obvious from the moment you pick up the car; he treated it with genuine care and precision. The car came out looking spectacular. If you're looking for top-tier detailing and someone who truly takes pride in their work, I can't recommend Jayme and Detail Theory Studio enough. I'll definitely be back with a few more cars

Who’s doing the work
Jayme’s whole working life has been in car care: the big retailers, global car care brands, running a mobile detailing business, and managing a paint protection film studio.
In 2026 that became Detail Theory, a detailing supplies store in Cleveland run by detailers. The studio works out of the same building, so the people coating your car are the same people other detailers come to for advice.
