Do not use Mobile 1 in Atlanta

Hello all! I just wanted to post up a warning about an Atlanta area detailer that left serious swirl marks all over my vehicle. To this point they promised twice to come fix it but did not show or call, they said a check was in the mail a week ago and I still have not received it, they are screening calls so if I call on my phone they will not answer but if I call from a different phone they answer. I know they have great reviews online but I have figured out that the reviews are forged. Super nice people when you actually get them on the phone but when they think you are on hold they curse you. Since all this has happened I have also found out that they are pirating photos from other detailers and websites and claiming them as their work. So if you are looking for a detail do not trust Mobile 1 Detailing, or Colyn, Justin, and Jason. Hopefully someone else will read this and not fall victim like me.

Thanks

Re: Do not use Mobile 1 in Atlanta

Sorry to hear that. The review were probably forged too if they are pirating photos. See if there are any autopians by you who can help you out.

Sending you a PM.

I just hate hacks and dishonesty in general.

Mike, Looking forward to getting your car done right.

Jet, You are correct and I have sent an email to Joe at Superior Shine. Also noted the Edward Norton BMW pic from the gallery this is posted on the net in a story here:

Re: Do not use Mobile 1 in Atlanta

Just getting around to posting some pics of their work. Enjoy!

Please note that if by some chance I receive a refund I will edit this page to give them credit for at least following through on their promise of a refund.

Re: Do not use Mobile 1 in Atlanta

Thanks for posting this review it might help a fellow Autopian from having the same trouble. When you pay a pro to detail your car it should not have swirls. I hope you get your money back.

Re: Do not use Mobile 1 in Atlanta

Looks like they compounded your car with a wool pad and a heavy compound. Crazy buffer trails !!! Its a shame when people get into this business and learn on the job training with other peoples cars. According to their website they also install 3M paint protection film. I am a certified installer through 3M, and I can tell you firsthand that you don't want a inexperience installer working with PPF. Find a detailer on this forum, and I am sure that they will be able to correct that mess the right way.
