Hyundai Ioniq 5 N

"Jake at Street Standard Detailing did an excellent job detailing both of our vehicles, inside and out. The exterior work left each vehicle looking clean and refreshed, and the interiors looked and felt noticeably better when he was finished. Jake's communication was prompt, professional, and clear from start to finish. He was upfront about his offerings, answered questions clearly, and made the whole process easy. You can tell he takes pride in his work and pays attention to the details that make a vehicle feel truly cleaned, not just quickly wiped down. Would absolutely recommend Street Standard Detailing to anyone looking for high quality interior and exterior detailing!"

100% Mobile · Based In Altoona

No shop. No storefront. We come to Greater Des Moines.

Street Standard Detailing is based in Altoona, Iowa, and operates as a fully mobile detailing service — we don't have a shop or storefront to visit. Every appointment is completed at your home or workplace in Greater Des Moines, on your schedule.

Street Standard Detailing is fully mobile — there is no shop or storefront. Most appointments require access to a working water spigot and a standard electrical outlet at the service address, plus roughly a parking-space-and-a-half of driveway or lot space, unless other arrangements are made in advance.

FAQ

Ceramic coating — questions from Greater Des Moines clients.

How much does ceramic coating cost in Des Moines?

Ceramic coating starts at $999 for a Coupe/Sedan. Larger SUVs, trucks, matte finishes, and heavier paint condition run higher. Final price confirmed after paint inspection.

How long does ceramic coating last on a car in Iowa?

Durability varies by the coating selected, vehicle use, storage, preparation, and maintenance. Manufacturer ratings for the products we install are typically multi-year with proper maintenance. Iowa's freeze-thaw cycles, road salt, and UV exposure will shorten unmaintained coatings.

Is ceramic coating worth it for a daily-driven car in Des Moines?

For most Des Moines daily drivers, yes. Ceramic coating adds hydrophobic protection, enhanced gloss, easier maintenance, and resistance to environmental contamination like brake dust, tree sap, and bug residue — but it does not fully block or 'lock out' any contaminant or damage.

Does ceramic coating replace the need for regular washing?

No. Ceramic coating makes washing easier and improves gloss and hydrophobic behavior, but the vehicle still needs regular pH-neutral hand washes. A recurring Maintenance Detail is the simplest way to keep the coating performing at its best.

Can ceramic coating be applied on a brand-new car?

Yes — new-car ceramic coating is one of the best times to install. We decontaminate the factory paint and apply the coating before the vehicle sees a full season of Iowa weather. Our ceramic packages do not include paint correction.

What areas does Street Standard Detailing serve?

We serve the entire Des Moines metro including Des Moines, Ankeny, Altoona, Waukee, West Des Moines, Clive, Johnston, Urbandale, Grimes, Pleasant Hill, Bondurant, Polk City, Norwalk, and Runnells. All service is mobile — we come to your home or workplace.

How do I book a detail?

Text or call 515-360-6110 for the fastest response, or request an instant quote through the site. During peak season we typically book 5–10 days out; off-season we can often book within the same week.

Do you require a deposit?

For most standard detailing services we don't require a deposit. Ceramic coating appointments and large-vehicle bookings may require a small deposit to hold the date. You'll know the exact terms before booking.

Two ceramic coating packages. One professional standard.

Both packages are installed in your garage across Altoona, Des Moines, West Des Moines, Waukee, Clive, and Urbandale.

Both packages include

  • Hand wash and full decontamination
  • Iron removal treatment
  • Clay bar treatment when needed
  • Paint preparation before coating
  • Panel prep before coating
  • Professional ceramic coating installation
  • Final inspection
  • Maintenance instructions

Both packages include proper preparation, decontamination, coating application, and curing process. Ceramic coating protects and enhances your vehicle's finish but does not remove existing scratches or paint defects.

Durability and curing figures are confirmed against current GYEON manufacturer guidance at your assessment rather than advertised here. Ceramic coating helps protect paint against UV rays, chemicals, road contamination, and environmental damage, and it makes routine washing easier. It is not scratch-proof and it is not permanent. Coatings are applied over the paint's existing condition after decontamination. One-step machine polishing is not included in this price — see the planned enhancement package below.

Planned for 2027

One-Step Paint Enhancement + Ceramic Coating

Improve gloss, reduce the appearance of light swirls and fine scratches, and protect the finish with GYEON Q² Mohs EVO. Planned for 2027 and performed personally by Jake.

Custom quote following paint assessment.

Priced separately from our current ceramic coating packages. One-step polishing is not included in the existing coating starting price.

The planned process

  1. 01Vehicle and paint inspection.
  2. 02Thorough exterior wash and appropriate decontamination.
  3. 03Test spot to determine the polishing approach.
  4. 04One-step machine polishing to improve gloss and reduce suitable light defects.
  5. 05Surface preparation and GYEON Q² Mohs EVO application.
  6. 06Final inspection and coating-care instructions.

What to expect

  • Results depend on paint condition and safe correction limits.
  • Deep scratches, chips, and every defect will not be removed.
  • This is not multi-step correction or paint restoration.
  • The coating is not scratch-proof or maintenance-free.

Durability and curing details will be published only once current GYEON manufacturer guidance is confirmed.

A Ford Mustang Dark Horse finished with our ceramic spray sealant during a Full Detail. Water sheets and beads off the paint instead of sitting on it. A full ceramic coating behaves the same way, and holds that behavior for far longer than a spray sealant does.

Ceramic coating is not a force field. It does not repair dents, replace paint correction, guarantee scratch removal, or permanently prevent all water spots and damage. Every vehicle is assessed before a recommendation is made, and the approach is chosen for that vehicle's paint and condition.

For wrap and paint-protection-film needs, we are happy to recommend trusted local installers, including Form Auto Styling and Protective Solutions.

Have a matte, satin, or wrapped vehicle? Those finishes need different chemistry — see matte & satin vehicle detailing.
