Elusive Auto Shine

No B.S. shop. Dante and his team keeps the customer and vehicle in mind throughout the process. He doesn't try to sell or do stuff that won't benefit you and your vehicle. I can't get over how amazing they made my 2019 Bullitt look.

Dante did an absolutely fantastic job completing an exterior paint correction and ceramic coating to my 2008 BMW 335xi. He also steam cleaned the interior for me. It was a true pleasure to deal with him start to finish. He offered a convenient drop off time, and extremely thorough and detailed walk-through of what to expect. The car came out better than I could have ever hoped, and my expectations were quite high. Dante is a true ‘car guy’ which is always appreciated, as well. I will recommend him to anyone looking for detail work for their automobile!

RECOMMEND! RECOMMEND! RECOMMEND! RECOMMEND!
I had some rust repair done recently then needed a little work on the hood and doors. Adam Whitaker turned me on to Elusive Auto Shine. Quintessential professional. Great service and very reasonable. My car looks brand new!
Thanks, guys!

Hands down the best auto detailing and specialty services experience I’ve ever had, beginning to end. Even after the job was completed Dante took the time to follow up and ensure everything was right. Meticulous, customer focused, top notch quality and extremely fair pricing. Overall a refreshing experience that is quite uncommon to find today. I highly recommend! Support small business!

Well all the reviews are 100000% correct. Dante is awesome. I had a small window for when I needed my work truck done and he listened to everything I needed and WOW did he meet and exceed my expectations!!! And the best part about him is he cares whole heartedly about his work and business. He is a true professional at his trade. From now on nobody will touch my cars or trucks except for him. If you are in the area, he and his business is the only wise choice. Thanks again sir.

I made a long distance deal on short notice to trade in my wife's kid hauler/grocery getter. I found a car that was languishing on the lot across the state. In a panic the next morning I realized I needed help cleaning out our trade-in to get the dollars we agreed upon. Dante got our car in that morning and scrubbed and steam cleaned away 5+ years of kid crud out of the interior. It looked new when he was done.

I was impressed.

The next morning we drove across the state to buy the new car. We had no trouble with our trade BUT when we got our new car home we realized the car had suffered extensive bird poo damage and car lot abuse while it sat outside for 6 months. The dark blue paint wouldn't shine and the dealership made matters worst by trying to polish the car quickly before we picked it up. Dante spent more hours than he bargained for polishing our new car, wet sanding out the bird poo stains and ceramic coating the paint only when he was satisfied with the shine. He even sent pictures of the damage to our salesman and helped us get some consideration from the dealership.

He turned the car around from a big potential disappointment to the joyful experience that buying a new car should be.

I am grateful for his work, knowledge, perseverance and talent!

I purchased the interior Signature detailing for my mid size car and couldn’t be happier. I worked with Dante and he was very helpful in every aspect. First, I could tell it was a very upscale state of the art detailing business because of how up to date and clean everything was when I entered the garage. Second, they are very personal with your car needs and wants and very detailed oriented. They do impeccable and very thoughtful work, not missing anything. Also, they are very timely and accommodating when it comes to car drop off and pick up times. To top it off, they had very professional customer service throughout the entire process and made me feel very safe leaving my car in their hands. Best place in pittsburgh that I’ve had my car detailed at by far.

Dante did a fantastic job on my wife's car! We had him do an interior and exterior detail with paint sealant and the car looks brand new! His pricing is great for the level of attention he gives to each car. Dante takes enormous pride in every detail he performs and ends up going above and beyond, whether he is detailing our family hauler or a 6-figure exotic car. Setting up our appointment was very easy with his scheduling software, and communication for pick up and drop off was great. Any additional issues that he ran into or additional work that needed done prompted a phone call from him immediately and we were on the same page. Also, as first time clients, he created a really cool video for us of his whole process. It showed video clips of each step of his process from start to finish. It was awesome! Nobody else does that!

Again, we couldn't be happier with Dante's work. There is no place in the Pittsburgh area that provides this level of quality work and easy communication. Dante will have more cars coming from us very soon!

This is by far the best detailing job I have ever experienced! Cliff and Dante were great and even showed a video of the truck being cleaned. I will definitely be using this shop again for all of my vehicles and highly suggest others do the same.

Fantastic job on my ceramic coat and partial PPF 10/10 service

The 5-Star reviews are absolutely well deserved! I contacted Dante about preparing my Mercedes for sale and the finished product is making me consider keeping it! He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about auto detailing. He tailored services for my purpose and that has provided me immediate value. I’m 1000% certain this car will sell fast! Also, contactless drop-off was easy and convenient. Thanks again Dante!

I cannot recommend Dante and his team at Elusive enough. Every time I take a vehicle here I am stunned by the quality of their work and attention to detail. This is the only place I would take my vehicles for detailing.

Recently I purchased a car with matte finish. Liked the car too much to give it up but was intimidated by care requirements. I have never had my car detailed but fortunately found out about Elusive Auto Shine on the web. Dante educated me on the care and gave it a protective coating as well as buffing out scratches (on the new car). It is so nice to see a knowledgeable professional who cares so much about customer service. I wish Dante further success and highly recommend his services.

I contacted Elusive via their website chat and they were wonderfully responsive to my questions for a scratch to our new vehicle. They also got us booked effectively quick. For the repair itself Dante was exceptionally professional and down to Earth. The work performed made a great deal of difference and I would gladly utilize their services for any future cosmetic repairs or detailing. Highly recommend Dante and Elusive Auto Shine - you won't be disappointed!

Awesome experience with Elusive Auto Shine. Brought in my new truck to get a ceramic coat and window tint done. Dante walked me through everything on the initial phone call and was a breeze to work with. Like others have said, he’s a true professional in his trade. Truck looks better than it did when I picked it up off the lot just a couple months prior. Looking forward to working with Dante and his team again.

Absolutely the best! Dante applied a ceramic coating inside and out that has made such a difference in the way our car is looking through the winter. When he does a cleaning/detail, the car looks like it’s brand new. His attention to detail is unmatched. I will never go anywhere else!

Fantastic experience with Dante and elusive auto shine. My wife wanted some touch ups on her SUV and Dante was the first and only call I made. He checked out the SUV, made some suggestions and we planned to do some work now(running boards/lights/etc) and additional stuff a few months down the road. Dante was knowledgeable and friendly. Most of all you can really tell he enjoys his work and has great attention to detail(and it shows in the quality of work he does) I showed up 10 minutes early to pick it up and he was washing and doing the final touches on my wife’s SUV. Not because I asked or paid for that ...but because he wanted my wife to see the work on a clean shiny car. That’s the kind of professionalism and personal touch you get with Dante and elusive auto. Highly recommend!!!

Absolutely fantastic experience and service. Brought my car in and Dante examined it and recommended a level of service consistent with what I wanted and how my car is used and stored. He performed a full detail, level 1 shine, and paint repair. Car looks better than it has since the year I bought it. When you pick up your car, Dante shows you a video of the process including before and after photos so you can see the difference. I have used several car detailing businesses in Pittsburgh and Ultimate Shine is -- by far -- the very best.

I was looking to get my new car ceramic coated and after a lot of research of products and local detailers I chose Elusive Auto Shine. The owner, Dante, is very helpful and takes the time to figure out what it is that you are trying to achieve. Dante was extremely transparent about his processes and what it would take to reach my desired outcome. I was amazed at how great my car looked when I picked it up; it looked 100% better than it did when I purchased it. I washed my car a week after having the service done, it took 20 minutes and the car looked amazing. Dante exceed my expectations and I would recommend him without any hesitation.

A 5 star rating is not enough for Elusive Auto Shine. Not only is Dante a meticulous and skilled detailer, he’s also a pretty awesome guy as well. Kind, friendly, and knowledgeable, Dante takes time talking with you about your goals for your vehicle, and then he goes and exceeds any expectations you had. His work is thorough and first class. From start to finish the process was enjoyable. By the time you get your car back, the biggest problem you have will be wiping the smile off your face.
I would recommend Elusive Auto Shine to anyone and everyone regardless of their needs and goals for their car. A+.
