The Works Auto Center did an awesome job on my 2016 Plum Crazy Challenger Hellcat. The 7 year wheels off ceramic coating package looks better than I ever imagined. Now, the customer service was beyond anything you ever see these days. Constant contact throughout the process, including progress pics. Shelby and her team are above top notch. She even followed up to see how my pick experience was. The shop is immaculate and organized. I will be back for sure and would highly recommend The Works Auto Center. I dove an hour to get this work done. Thanks again for a great job and even better experience.

Kory Asher and his team at The Works Auto Center are the best in the area, by far. I have had fairly extensive detailing/cosmetic work done on both my vehicles at this shop. Their PPF/“clear bra” & paint correction skills are second to none. They also maintain my vehicles regularly with maintenance washes and detailing.Kory & the guys are also very personable & patient. They take the time to listen to you, to make sure they understand what you want and deliver that to you. This, to me, is as important as the actual work they perform.If you’re looking to have any kind of detail/cosmetic work done to your vehicle, from a small job to an extensive one, do not hesitate to check this shop out. And, if you want the most professional work you will find in this area, do yourself a favor and have The Works perform the work you’re looking to have done.

The Works Auto Center did an amazing job applying full body PPF and ceramic coating to my new 2021 Tesla Model Y. The car looks incredible—shines like its newer than new!—and knowing its protected from the elements and accidental dings (self-healing PPF!) gives me peace of mind that the car is well protected. The service isnt cheap, but you get what you pay for, and I consider it part of the total cost of investing in my vehicle.Shelby was great to work with in all of our correspondence. She was very responsive via phone and text message, and was knowledgeable in addressing all of my questions and concerns along the way.Highly recommend The Works Auto Center!

The Works Auto Center did an exceptional job ceramic coating my car. I was on the fence, because the car already looked great, but WOW -- they took it to the next level. Thank you all for your prompt work, and expert attention to detail! Ceramic coat is a must on all my cars going forward...

I bought a new 2021 Porsche Cayenne S and brought the car to The Works for an Expel full body wrap with Fusion ceramic coating. Kory and his team took 5 days to complete the work. The car looks better than showroom new! I am so happy that my car is protected, my investment in the finish is noted on CarFax and that I have a luxury vehicle that will continue to look new!

Went to The Works to do a full chrome delete on my truck. I can tell you they did not disappoint. They were very accommodating and went above and beyond. The owner kept me updated with pictures everyday on the progress being made. The work they did makes the truck look like it came blacked out from the factory, even the black powder coated rims look factory. I will gladly go back to The Works for any other car related matters and I look forward to getting the ceramic coating done in the near future

Pretty disappointed to not be able to give more than 5 stars. The team at The Works has surpassed my expectations. I had my G37 wrapped and coated along with some other requests, they came out great. On top of that they did a bunch more work to make sure my car looked and smell fresh. I am already planning to come back for windows tint and possibly more custom work. Thanks Kory, Josh, and Shelby (who I was only able to spoke with on the phone)!

Got PPF and ceramic coating on my used Tesla and it came out perfect. I really liked the constant communication throughout the process, and regularly got updates on the status of my car. Very efficient place and easy to do business with. Seems they truly care about their customers.

The works auto center was great! I just purchased a brand new truck and made the mistake of getting it in black. Even though it was an expensive truck I plan to work with it so I called the works auto detailing to find out what I could do to preserve the exterior as much as possible/prevent scratches etc. They told me about paint protection film and ceramic coating, it wasn’t cheap but they also did an extensive paint correction on the vehicle to remove all the scratches from the drive through car washes that were on my truck in one month of ownership. After the full paint correction they did the PPF and ceramic coating. Took about five days for everything but when I got my truck back it looked better than when I drove away from the dealership in it. They are very helpful, very careful and very professional Not only will I bring future vehicles to them but I am recommending them to anyone who will listen!!! Thanks Corey and Shelby and co.!!!!-Zack R.

I am very happy with my Civic vinyl wrap on my roof!Like many 8th gen Civic (2006-2011) owners, the gloss coat was failing creating an unsightly look. I was seeking a repaint when The Works Auto Center suggested a less expensive option to fit my budget. And it comes with a three year warranty so I can rest assured that The Works Auto Center will stand by its work! The owner, Kory, suggested a matching wrap since restoration to its original look was really my top goal. Although I just got my car back today I am thrilled with the job I received. It really was exactly what I wanted and it was within my budget!

Great experience from a veteran owner. I moved from the West Coast and was worried about finding a shop for maintaining my ceramic coating and PPF. Fortunately The Works is now in Albany to take care of my Model 3! Corey and Shelby are friendly owners and they have a well organized system to take care of all your vehicle detailing needs.

Five years ago I had an XPEL paint protecting film applied by a nearby car dealership. At the time, they did not wrap the film around the body panel edges. It looked like garbage but still offered great protection. Fast forward to 2021. After a summer at the beach, I took my SUV in for an interior/exterior detail. The Works did a grate job detailing the SUV and recommended I have the XPEL film removed and redone. After asking for XPEL to cover the material costs, I had The Works remove and reapply the PPF. They did great work and the SUV looks better than new. I am so happy that there is a great detailer in Albany.

Kory and the guys absolutely hit a grand slam with my van. This wasn’t my first visit and certainly not the last!! Between baseball and dog rescue transport I gave them quite a challenge and they nailed it. My van looks better now ( 5 years old) then it did when I took delivery at brand new!! Once my summer ride comes out of hibernation I will be back at the shop soon!!

I heard about this place through a coworker, since I had been looking for a place to detail my car. It was easy to an appointment, drop off my car and they called when they were done. The atmosphere in there was great, and welcoming which is rare when woman walks into anything to do with cars. The owner Kory came out talked to me about my car and was so friendly. When I got back into my car it felt brand new again. I’ve gone back every season for just that feeling and even gotten my family’s cars done for the holidays/ change in seasons. My family is always amazed on the great job they do on them, considering my entire family works in construction and there cars are usually a heaping pile of ground in dirt and who knows what else. So long story short this place is amazing and would recommend it to anyone if you want quality work done with people you can trust.

I brought my car seats to The Works to have them cleaned up after mice had gotten into my car and made everything smell. The guys were able to get them cleaned up in a day, got all the stains out and they smell brand new. Definitely recommend.

I had my vehicle taken care of at The Works Auto Center and was blown away by the results, I sprung for an exterior paint correction and film protectant application to keep the paint looking nice after a respray. The time and effort spent on my vehicle speaks for itself. I was treated very professionally, and my car was treated as if it was the owners own! The turnaround time and pricing was very reasonable considering the care given. I would let them babysit my child, of course I’d recommend they would take care of my car as well!

Kory and the crew at the works auto center killed it on my 2016 ram 2500. They did a one step paint correction, ceramicoat, polished my aluminum wheels and my custom aluminum cummins logo shields on grill and bumper. Ive had this truck ceramicoated 5 years ago and it didnt feel anything like the paint surface feels like now. Super impressed. Ill be taking all my other vehicles to them as well.

Kory has done excellent work on my previous BMW 340i, starting when we met after an unfortunate overspray of paint by a line crew on the highway. I had heard about him through the BMW local car club, so I went to him and he removed all of the overspray followed by applying a ceramic coat the vehicle. He detailed the car to maintain it during the subsequent few years that followed.Fast forward - I knew I wanted to have the experience of driving a full on M vehicle, and though I thought that would be an M3 or maybe M4, I wasnt fond of the front end changes. I was in the fortunate position to order a 2022 X3M Competition in July when 2021 orders were no longer being taken. I immediately contacted Kory knowing I had to have ppf on this vehicles front end fresh out of the factory given my previous experience of seeing what rocks had done to my previous front end. Seeing new chips every few weeks was painful considering how well I try to keep my vehicles looking good! Of course, being pretty OCD, our interactions evolved from a front end ppf to a full body ppf including windshield ppf and of course ceramic coating. Being my first M vehicle, I found it worthy to invest in the enjoyment of the vehicle for the time I will have it because as pointed out, I noticed every chip, swirl, or scratch, especially coming from the previous black 340i.So, this was the perfect car to go all out and make more mint than it was when it left South Carolina. Kory picked it up at the dealership while I was working in another state, sending me photos to keep me updated on the process. He would continue doing so throughout the process of prepping, filming, and coating the vehicle. Im a bit neurotic with the OCD I alluded to earlier, so this was a great touch while he remained open to my texts and calls throughout the week without making me feel like I was being inconvenient as I know how customer service is, and Im probably that customer in some ways that anyone is happy to complete service with. Never an issue for him however. Anyway, the real delivery took place when I picked up the vehicle at his shop and I couldnt be happier with all of the service exceeding my wildest expectations. I trust him with my vehicles the way one should trust a surgeon performing open heart surgery. Kory and his team are meticulous, work ethic-driven, and competent in all aspects of detailing. Theres a reason why you dont let a dealer pretend to be your detailer just as you dont go to an orthopedic surgeon for a heart surgery. You go to the appropriate specialist. I have no doubt that The Works Auto Center will continue to be my go to for any detailing needs and I certainly recommend him and his team to any and all who bring up the topic or even those who may benefit from his services unknowingly.Cheers to Kory and his team! Biased or not, look at his work, get a quote, and be satisfied by the results every time!

At first I was hestitating getting ceramic coating done last year, I didnt know what to think of it, until I did more research, saved up a bit, and went ahead and purchased the silver 5 year ceramic coating.Best decision Ive ever done with my Escape. Kory Asher of The Works Auto Center not only coated my finish and removed my swirl marks, he treated my calipers and restored my plastic trim around the car that needed it.Kory was very very communicative with me sending me pictures throughout the project, I loved that.The end results are so incredible! Next year I plan to do an undercoating through The Works Auto Center. They do a whole lot more.Thank you so much for making Robin brand new again! Shes my baby! :)

Review №29

Outstanding experience from introduction to pick-up. Setting up the service, which included ceramic coating and a protective film, was quick and easy while Kory was still very thorough. I could not have been more impressed with how the car looked when I picked it up. I was even more surprised when I was informed that my bumper was not the original bumper. I recently purchased the vehicle and the car dealership didnt mention this nor was it in the Carfax. The team then was able to figure out which bumper I had and custom cut new protective film for it. In addition to eating the cost of having to do that they went the extra mile by covering the B pillar (which has the model imprinted on the outside) with protective film, which was not in the original plans. They did all of this for no extra charge! Finally, because of a last minute scheduling conflict I was unable to pick up the car on the scheduled day. They were happy to hold onto the car, taking up available bay space, for an extra day until I could get there. It was raining heavily the day I could pick-up and they would have been completely within their rights to park it outside but didnt, so that there wouldnt be any water marks on pick-up. I could not have been more impressed and recommend them without reservation. I will definitely be going back with my wifes car and with any future detailing needs I have.

Brought in my Tesla Model 3 to get a Ceramic Pro coat and to blackout the chrome. From recent body work there were some pretty nasty scratches on my front end. Kory took great care of getting my Tesla looking better than new! If youre looking to put money into protecting your car, The Works Auto is the place to go!

I purchased my 2020 Tesla Model 3 in July. Immediately, I was concerned about the paint as it contained swirl marks, tiny paint chips and bubbles! About 2 months later, one of those bubbles popped open and the paint just peeled away! Tesla was ZERO help. They told me that it was my responsibility to protect my investment. I realized that I needed to seek an alternative solution. I made an appointment with The Works to have my car covered in PPF. Shelby called as soon as the car was cleaned and prepped because there were more surprises. She shared pictures and offered suggestions on what work should be done to remedy the situation. I was blown away by her customer service and compassion! After delivering the news, she even told me to take my time to make my final decision!In short, the car came out better than I expected! It looks gorgeous! I even received a comment on the car on my way home! :) I can not say enough good things about this company and their customer service! They are the best around!!!!!

Review №34

I had initially been reluctant about protective paint films as sort of a gimmick, but after having my car for almost 3 years decided to protect my car (a fair weather vehicle) before it got too marked up. I had researched various films and paint coatings and ultimately decided on Xpel for the front surfaces and Ceramic Pro coating for everything, intending to protect the most threatened parts of the car from chips and bugs, and overall protection and ease of care everywhere.The Works Auto Center was responsive to my inquiries about application of the materials and considered the various options I was considering for my car. Responses were fast, and the schedule was realistic. I was pleased with the care and attention provided to my car in applying the Xpel and CeramicPro, including the wheels off treatment for my wheels and brake calipers. The car really shined when finished. I have two other vehicles that Im considering for either CeramicPro and/or Xpel and will return to The Works Auto Center when Im ready.

The Works Auto Center did a great job on my jeep. I bought it with a bunch of swirl marks and scratches, and I knew right away who to bring it to. The car sparkles and shines like it’s from factory now. Also had all of the chrome deleted, and blacked out the entire car. It looks amazing, what a crazy transformation it had! 10/10 recommend going here! Great customer service and high quality work!

Kory and his team at The Works Auto Center did a great job with my window tint, vinyl wrap, and ceramic coating (interior & exterior). Im so happy with the way it came out.

Kory, Shelby and the rest are the best. They truly go above and beyond. I had my 911 banged a bit at the rear bumper and the wheel. They are now like new. Also had the clear bra, ceramic coating interior and exterior. I was very surprised how well the interior came out. Has a much richer feel to it. I also want to see how Shelby went above and beyond with great modesty. I would highly recommend the Works. I thought I could post some pictures but unfortunately I can’t figure that out!

Had full front end Xpel installed on my Q60, Kory and team did a phenomenal job. Very upfront about various PPF options and no pressure or up-sell tactics, seemed happy to provide the exact service the customer wanted. Job was well planned and well executed.

Review №44

I knew I needed to protect my new car with ppf and the biggest concern was always to find a place that does high quality work. Paint protection is totally worth it in my opinion but only if it is installed properly. Luckily the works turned out to be the best choice. They did fantastic work on my model y, not only ppf but also some custom work, even added some things I didn’t expect. Shelby answered every question I had before, during and after the process. She was well informed, polite and very patient with me and my billion questions. Kory and Josh did amazing work. Can’t speak better about the whole process. Please look at their work on their websites, Facebook, etc. Thank you much.

Outstanding quality and attention to detail. Have been to a few places over the years and Kory is by far the most professional and best detailer I have ever used.

Stopped by the shop to check out the options offered for ceramic coating. After talking with Kory for just a few minutes and seeing the work him and his guys do I walked out just a few minutes later with an appointment for ceramic coating and interior protection. He was very informative and did not push for any additional services, I simply just looked at some completed work to choose what I wanted done. Got the truck in and out right on schedule and it looks amazing. Very informative, organized, and quality place to do business. Thanks for the great work!

Kory and his team are excellent. One of the few pros in the area that deals with Ceramic Pro coatings. I brought my Model 3 into these guys to get some scratches repaired. They are fast, reasonable, and the quality is excellent. I also happened to see some wrap jobs they were working on while I was there and I was blown away. Some of the best and careful work Id ever seen. They really know what theyre doing. Id absolutely recommend them to anyone who wants to keep their car looking its best.

I saw living proof of the coating on my coworkers BLACK truck after 2 months of it on his truck so I was immediately sold. If you are serious about keeping your vehicle clean and fresh think about this place.

Korey and his staff performed a 2 step paint correction and a 5-year ceramic coating on a used 2014 black BMW 5 series I purchased. The car had many swirl marks and before I purchased Kory assured me he would bring the car back to life, which he did! The car looks amazing and I was very impressed with the professionalism and communication throughout the process. Just look at the cars in their shop and check out their Facebook page and you will quickly realize they are the best in the area. I will definitely be a returning customer.

They did an absolute amazing job on my 2018 sti, it looks absolutely flawless and they were able to go above and beyond my expectations. I thought I would just do a ceramic coating (which we did) and we ended up doing a couple installations of parts I had as well as an awesome gloss black color change for the rims. On top of how amazing the car looks the customer service was just as good. Look no further for upgrading or making your vehicle shine this shop is the best around.

I brought my brand new Toyota Highlander to Kory to inquire about paint protection film and ceramic coating. He spent a good amount of time with me going over all my options and every detail of the process. He patiently answered every question I had and did not pressure me at all. He gave me the information, the pricing and a brochure. I thanked him and left. After going over all the information he had given me, I decided that this was the best thing I could do to protect my new car. I called the next day and made an appointment. I’ll admit I was nervous. But when I picked my car up it was just beautiful! Shiny and gorgeous and best of all, protected from those chips that inevitably happen on the front bumper and hood. Don’t hesitate. Do it. You will love your car. Kory is also a veteran and it’s nice to be able to support a veteran owned business. He’s the best in the area!

Review №68

I came across The Works Auto Center while trying to find a shop that would do Ceramic Coating on our new car. After reaching out with multiple shops and taking into account their experience doing Ceramic Coating, I came across this local business run by Kory Asher. The Works is authorized by Ceramic Pro, a leading ceramic coating product.I am so glad that I found Kory as he is very professional, detail oriented and easy to work with. He did an AWESOME job on our new car that we bought 3 weeks ago. I am sure anyone looking at the vehicle now would be impressed with the quality of work and product. Most people do not understand that even new vehicles have flaws in the paint. Kory did great paint correction before applying Ceramic Pro which now provides hydrophobic capabilities to the entire exterior (paint, plastic, glass and wheels), besides enhancing the beauty of the vehicle. The ceramic coating allows the water to bead and roll off, as the product is like a layer of glass on top of the surface of the vehicle.The Works does other detailing (washing/waxing/etc) work also on cars, besides ceramic coating. I believe this is the best place for ceramic coating in the Capital Region. In future, I know where I am going to get our car taken care of. Thank you Kory.

The car is absolutely beautiful now. The shine and finish is breathtaking, the finish is like a mirror after the bronze package and interior detail it’s like looking at a completely different car.

Interactions with him/the company were highly professional and courteous, and they worked with me and around my schedule, even letting me pick up the vehicle at an unusual time.Although I wasnt expecting it, he daily sent me pictures showing me the progress of the application (gold package), which was really great.Id highly recommend their services to anyone considering a ceramic coating for their vehicle!

Very pleased with ceramic and Car detail with my Ferrari 599 GTB. I enjoyed dealing directly with Kory. I enjoyed progress pics and final pics of the car when completed.

I brought my truck in for a CeramicPro 9H application and the results are stunning. Due to the weather, they asked to delay my pickup of the finished vehicle to allow more time to cure rather than risk reducing the quality of the finished product, and met with me on a Saturday when they are normally closed to take delivery. High marks for both the quality of work and professionalism.

I knew I had the right place after speaking with Kory on the phone, but if you take a minute to watch him and his team work, you can tell they are truly passionate about their craft. My car came back looking better than it did the day I picked it up. Support your local Veterans, and go see Kory for all your detailing needs!

Kory did an excellent job getting my Sierra back to better then new. Having had it coated once before with poor results it was awesome seeing the perfect finish and extreme shine. Kory and his crew took the time needed to make it look flawless. Much respect for a true professional who takes pride in his work and it shows with the results.

Dropped off my 2019 Ram Laramie last week because there was “spiderweb/swirling” in the black paint from dealer. Got the Ceramic Silver package which has about a 5-6 year life on it. Left some manufacturer paint with them for rock chips also. Dropped the truck off Wednesday night, it was ready by Friday afternoon. Truck looked mint!!! Exactly how it should have looked when I first bought it. The guys at the shop answered all of my questions and were really easy to deal with.Told them I found some more rock chips they might have missed when I did the walk around and they came right out and patched everything on the spot. You can tell these guys are passionate about the work they do. Professional all around...will absolutely come back.

Kory and his team did an absolutely amazing job on my MB S550, it looks better than the day i drove it off the dealership lot. He was very professional throughout the process, taking his time in understanding my needs and wants. I would recommend anyone looking to get the best results to use this company.

Had my 22 boat detailed and coated with Ceramic Pro. Kory and his team did a great job and really paid close attention to detail. They did the interior and exterior of the boat. Looks better than new and has a protective coating!

I needed to get an old application of xpel removed, as well as, a new one installed with ceramic coating and paint correction. It was easy and COVID safe enough to get an estimate and an appointment. It was about 2-3 week later when I dropped the car off. Three days later the car was done on time. Pick up was smooth.The car looks beautiful. The car had been scratched by an idot, prompting my visit to The Works. They were able to render it almost undetectable. Their methods and products have turned my 5 year old car into near new condition. It is show car smooth and glossy. Their application of the xpel has been spot on as far as the edges.They did a great job on the wheels, the calipers and the paintless dent removal was the finishing touch.Cost is fair for the labor. This is never a cheap affair, but they made it totally a worthwhile purchase. The team is pleasant to work with and communicative. You wont go wrong and Ill be dropping off my other car in the fall.

Kory,You and your team did an amazing job on my Scat Pack Challenger. The vinyl wrapped hood is exactly what I was expecting. The Xpel and gold package ceramic coating look amazing and will protect my car for years to come. The car definitely looks better than the day I picked it up from the dealership. Oh yeah, loved the updated pics throughout the process. I highly recommend The Works Auto Center.

Kory and his employee, Landon, did a fantastic job on my 2019 Z06! Their paint correction work and attention to detail was unbelievable!! Kory kept me informed with pictures and information updates throughout the entire process. I opted for the Gold Package and the Xpel Protection Film for the front bumper. I would highly recommend that anyone who is considering this service stop by and visit with Kory and see his shop in person. You wont be disappointed!!

Shelby walked me through the process of deciding between xpel and ceramic pro and which would benefit my car most. She answered every question with detail and patience. Kory and his crew treated my vehicle like their own. Will be a returning customer! Thanks again guys!

They were really helpful in answering any doubts and concerns I had with coating my vehicle. The team did a fantastic job with the ceramic coating and were able to work with my schedule.The coating applied to my car has made it look newer than when I originally purchased it, but also protects against the environment.

I highly recommend The Works Auto Center and Kory. Had my brand new 2019 Chevy Colorado done with the Silver Plus package. It actually looks better than when I drove the truck off the lot of the dealer. Great communication and great service. You will not be disappointed. Just do it!!

Kory and his team did a phenomenal job with my wife and I cars. We both did the ceramic protection and we couldn’t be more happy. We did both inside and out and the results are noticeable. The work was done quickly and professionally. Kory has made a lifetime client out of us and we will continue to take our cars to him to have them maintained.

Trust Corey with my car after doing alot of research in the area. Felt very comfortable upon meeting him. We went over in detail everything that I wanted/expected, and he made his own recommendations. He kept in contact with me throughout the process and everything came out great and went smoothly.Would highly recommend him. He takes pride in his work, has attention to detail and has great communication skills. I was nervous about the process but he made it easy and I havent been disappointed.Will take my next car to him too.

Very highly recommended! Cannot say enough about the attention to detail that Kory shows.. Ended up going with the 10 year package for my Jeep. If you are on the fence at all I highly recommend you give Kory a call. He will steer you straight- 1st Ceramic Coat but will not be the last! Also want to thank Kory for the service he gave to our great country!!

I recently bought a brand new RS3 that I had paint corrected and ceramic coated by a private detailer. He completely destroyed the car with swirls and scratches. I was recommended by a friend to Kory at The Works Auto Center and was not disappointed. Kory fixed all the defects that were left in the paint, ceramic coated it, and applied PPF to the piano black trim. The work was flawless, and I’m completely crazy with how every inch of the car has to be perfect. I will never go to anyone else again. Thanks again for making my car perfect.

Kory- I am very happy with the vehicle protection package and I do see the results as the color of the vehicle is really brought out to the full extent and the water rolls off of the car. I need to add the the chrome wrap on the front adds as en eye catcher and am looking forward to chrome wrapping the door handles. Great professional job all the way around. Thank you, Ted
