Professionally Certified Ceramic Coating Installer; Certified in FIVE Different Companies. System X Ceramic Protection Certified Installer, Offering Ceramic Coatings Registered with CARFAX! IGL KENZO Master Applicator and Carbon Collective's Self-Healing Coating Installation center. I brought my restored 1966 Ford Mustang to Jake and was blown away with what he can do.
His attention to detail is way beyond professional. Zero corners are cut in everything he does. Looking at the work he does I had a pretty good idea the Mustang would come back good but I had no idea it would come back this amazing. He definitely has me as a long term customer and I would recommend him to anyone.

Why did I choose the name "Shining Armour"? Because it's so much more than making your vehicle blissfully shine - it's about shielding & protecting that shine, and keeping it that way for as long as possible! This company was created based on an obsessive passion for automotive perfection, maintenance and protecting your investments.
Clear coat is porous, and brake dust, industrial fallout and other contaminants will easily bond to an unprotected paint surface. This is no ordinary wash, and is the starting point for all my paint correction work. Chemical iron removal, scratch-free washing, clay bar contaminant removal, topped with higher levels of protection vs anywhere else!
The latest coating from CarPro, this Silicon Carbide coating produces mesmerizing gloss, increased slickness, and protection lasting well over a year, with up to 2 years on a properly maintained vehicle. Professional 2-layer hybrid coating system, 9H Hardness, 90% active content, Low-VOC coating, and 110-degree water contact angle.

We had an odor in our vechile, I splashed some milk on accident. I clean cabins in the summer but I couldn't get the smell out. I gave Jake the run down...he said he could try to get it out. He was AMAZING!!! Smell is gone and my vechile looks absolutely wonderful! Best part is he called about a week later to check on the vechile and make sure we were happy!!! My husband was jealous of how clean he got our vechile we will be taking his vechile in soon!!!

The workmanship, quality, attention to detail, and end result was worth every penny. This 10 year old car literally looks perfect now. On top of that, the owner was personable and customer-service oriented. He knows his customers by name, you can’t put a price on being treated right. Still blown away at how much this car shines and reflects, 10/10 can’t recommend more!

Had an interior detailing completed by Jake last week and my expectations (more like hopes) were blown away. The shop is immaculate and I about cried when I opened my car door to get in. The leather was refreshed and back to brand new condition. Every crumb, pet hair, and speck of dust was gone. Jake was wonderful to work with, very timely and communicates professionally. I absolutely recommend Shining Armour and will be a repeat customer myself!

Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Value
The service exceeded my expectations. The owner is very responsive and attentive to both his customers and his work. I highly recommend Shining Armour over any other detail shop in the area as I have used several over the years.

I brought my restored 1966 Ford Mustang to Jake and was blown away with what he can do. If you want work done to your car, truck or suv Jake at Shining Armour in Detroit Lakes is the guy to do it. Everything from minor interior and exterior details to full blow paint correction and ceramic coating. His attention to detail is way beyond professional. Zero corners are cut in everything he does. Looking at the work he does I had a pretty good idea the Mustang would come back good but I had no idea it would come back this amazing. He definitely has me as a long term customer and I would recommend him

HIGHLY recommend this company for your detailing needs. We brought in my boyfriends work truck which was trashed to say the least. He does excavating so it doesn’t take much for the truck to get dirty. He took his time and did a phenomenal job! The before and after pictures of the truck really show what an amazing job he does! I’d give him 10 stars if it was possible! We will be back next year!

We recently brought our SUV in for detailing. Our car regularly carts around two young kids, and they had done their best to destroy the interior. We were beyond amazed by what Shining Armour did with the car. I think it looked better than when it left the showroom. The attention to detail and the care with which Jake did his work was amazing!
