Jay's Detail Studio is a San Antonio paint protection and appearance shop that opened in 2011, run by an owner who has been in the car care business since 2005. It was one of the first shops in the city to offer ceramic coatings, back when most people still called them snake oil. Every job is handled personally by the owner, from CARPRO ceramic coating packages and paint correction to clear, matte, and color change paint protection film, LLumar window tint, and windshield protection film. Ceramic coating packages start at $1,095, and PPF coverage runs from bumper only up to full vehicle. Quotes are free, and the shop takes care of vehicles across San Antonio and nearby communities including Boerne, Bulverde, and New Braunfels.

Services
Ceramic coating
Ceramic coating gives your paint a deep shine while making it easier to clean, and keeps your ride protected from the Texas sun, dirt, and everyday wear. CARPRO coatings are used, with packages built around a light polish or full paint correction.
Paint protection film (PPF)
PPF shields your paint from rock chips, road debris, and scratches. Coverage options run from bumper only and partial coverage up to full front and full vehicle, in clear or matte film.
Matte PPF
Matte PPF gives your car a smooth satin look while protecting the paint underneath, a clean way to change the style without sacrificing durability.
Color PPF
Color change PPF lets you switch up your vehicle's look with bold finishes while still getting the benefits of paint protection.
Window tinting
Window tint keeps your car cooler, adds privacy, and blocks harmful UV rays. LLumar film is offered in Pinnacle, IRX, Stratos, and AIR80 options.

How much does ceramic coating cost?
There are three ceramic coating packages. DQuartz GO starts at $1,095 with a one day turnaround, CQuartz Professional starts at $1,595 with a one to two day turnaround, and CQuartz Finest Reserve starts at $2,195 with a three to four day turnaround.
Will ceramic coating fix scratches or swirl marks?
Ceramic coating itself will not remove scratches, but paint correction will. The paint can be leveled first so it looks smooth and clear, and then the ceramic layer locks in a long lasting shine.
How much of my car can paint protection film cover?
PPF packages range from bumper only to partial coverage, full front, and full coverage of all painted surfaces. Black plastic trim, like the accents on some BMW, Audi, and Volkswagen models, is not included and would need a separate treatment. An 11.5 mil film is available at additional cost.
What window tint film do you use?
Window tinting is done with LLumar film. The Pinnacle, IRX, Stratos, and AIR80 lines are offered, so you can pick the level of heat rejection, glare control, and appearance you want.
