I rarely write reviews, but it doesn't get any better than this. Pro Ceramic - Best Auto Salon is AMAZING!!! I did a ton of research when looking to ceramic coat my brand new Caddy. As a person that relies heavily on customer reviews, I thought Gary's shop was too good to be true...it wasn't. From my first interaction with Gary, I realized this dude is super passionate about his craft. He made me feel like I was the most important customer in the history of his shop, provided me recommendations, explained his process, and never tried to upsell. And, when I told him I was going to add Paint Protection Film from another shop, Gary offered to coordinate the entire process with the other shop owner...even driving my car to/from the other location. He also provided me daily updates with photos and text messages. Gary is awesome. Seriously. And his work...perfect. I will add ceramic coating to every new vehicle I purchase, and I don't care where I am in the world, I am calling Gary to make it happen. He's that amazing!

I found Gary on Google and reached out to him to get my car protected, and the experience exceeded all expectations. From the beginning, I had very little knowledge about my options, but Gary took the time to walk me through everything, patiently explaining the different services and helping me make an informed decision. What really stood out was the level of care and attention to detail—he treated my car like it was his own. The quality of the work was absolutely outstanding. I dropped the car off on a Saturday and it was ready for pickup by 12 noon on Monday. Throughout the process, Gary kept me updated with clear communication and even sent progress pictures, which I really appreciated. Overall, it was a smooth and professional experience from start to finish. I’ll definitely be back again!

Finally a car guy you can trust. Gary made my 11 yr old car look brand new. He knocked himself out, and gave me a fair price. I’m now a loyal fan.

Gary is easy to talk to and shares his knowledge. He showed me all the options he offered and I took his recommendations. My 2002 Toyota tundra (with 187,000 miles) looks (and feels) great. The truck shines in the sunlight! It looks completely different. I'm really happy with the ceramic coating. I will be recommending him to everyone.

I recently had my Camaro’s brake calipers painted by Gary, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I had previously gone to someone else who did a terrible job, and I was really disappointed with how they turned out. Thankfully, Gary was able to correct the mess and completely turn things around—he did an outstanding job. His attention to detail was incredible—he hand-painted each caliper himself and made sure everything was done to last, not just look good. Gary kept me updated throughout the entire process, even sending pictures along the way, which I really appreciated. He had my car back to me quickly, and the whole experience was smooth and professional from start to finish. Not only was the quality of the work top-notch, but the service was timely, respectful, and reliable. Gary’s communication and craftsmanship truly set him apart. I’ve included before, during, and after photos so you can see the difference for yourself. I would recommend him to anyone without hesitation—you can tell he genuinely takes pride in his work!

For years I said I was going to get purple brake calipers and when I bought my 25 Camry I just had to do it. The color really pops in the sun. I had a great experience, Gary was very knowledgeable and gave some great ideas to customize a little more. Thanks Gary!

Wanted to ensure that my 2016 Bentley received the best in ceramic coating. Did my research and found Gary. It was 10:30 at night when I submitted an estimate request via email and Gary immediately replied. We spoke that evening and scheduled the appointment. Gary explained the entire process, displayed the various equipment and gave a time for completion. I dropped the car off and Gary even gave me a ride back home. I received video and photo updates during the entire process. When I picked the car up, it looked totally different. If you are in need of ceramic coating, there is no one better than Gary Best!! He has earned my business and I have already recommended him to my friends and associates. He is the BEST in the business!!

Outstanding customer service with high-quality products is what you receive when you choose to protect your vehicle with Gary Best, also known as "Dr. G," at Pro Ceramic – Best Auto Salon. Gary has been protecting my motor vehicle investments since September 2022, with the most recent service completed in mid-September. For this latest service, Gary applied clear PPF to the front end, mirror backs, and door cups. Because my vehicle is black, I chose red for my calipers. He then finished the job with a ceramic coating for the windows, body, wheels, and interior. I drove the car directly from the dealership to his shop on a Monday afternoon and picked it up on Saturday morning—a flawless experience. I should also mention that Gary is respected and well-connected within his industry, both locally and across the nation. His network of partnerships enabled me to have a Ceramic IR window tint applied while my vehicle was already in the shop. Of course, the window tint was flawless and met Gary's high standards. He would never expose a client to anything less than what he uses or pays for himself. This level of quality, work ethic, and meticulousness is rare, but it is the standard at Pro Ceramic – Best Auto Salon. The reason I nicknamed him "Dr. G" is simple: like any scientist, Gary stays current on the research in his field. He holds the products he chooses in high regard because they are the best in class. He will not offer you anything he would not use on his own vehicles, and he stands by the service he provides. Stop in and speak with Gary—or, I should say, receive your consultation. Thank you, Dr. G, for all you have done and continue to do!

I can’t say enough good things about Gary Best at Best Auto Salon. He absolutely saved my BMW X7 after another detailer left it covered in swirls and haze. Gary took the time to properly assess the damage, and his paint correction and ceramic coating work brought the car back to life—literally looks brand new. The depth, clarity, and gloss of the paint are stunning, and you can tell he takes pride in every inch of the job. Professional, meticulous, and honest—Gary is the real deal. If you care about your car, bring it to him. 10/10.

Gary is absolutely amazing and very professional Easy to talk to, extremely easy to work with. From the first time I reached out to him to ask questions about what his ceramic coating and options that he offers, he ensures you know what you want, explains in detail the different options and products he has to offer to match what you are looking for. He kept me informed and updated with pics and videos along the way with the progress. He went well above and beyond my expectations! Gary Best is the absolute best and top notch as he stands above all the competition out there. He isn't looking just for a job but to build a relationship for life with you and to help your car look the best and protect your investment. He does magnificent work, with great attention to detail. I was just blown away to see my car under the led lighting he has in his shop but then to see the mirrored glass finish when I pulled it out into the sun! Just take a look at some of the pics. I would highly recommend him to all my family and friends and anyone else looking to get ceramic coating. Thank you, Gary!!

My black Lexus which I was proud of got lots of water spot and rag scratches on it. So I needed to find someone to get them out of the paint. So I asked my phone ( HEY Google tell me someone in Waldorf that gets water spots and scratches out of car paint ) It took me to PRO CERAMIC Website I called. Then I went to see GARY, he was very knowledgeable about my situation. My attention was on a truck he was working on it looked so Amazingly good. The only thing I knew was that I wanted my car to look like that pickup. When I took my car to GARY I had a up beat attitude about having my car worked on. Gary sent me updates and pictures about the process which excited me. Then Gary called and said it was Finnished. This is what I saw 👀

Wow, Gary is such a great guy and businessman. He text me and kept me informed on every step. This is just the beginning, my calipers and wheels came out awesome. Can't wait to start on the rest of the vehicle. Well worth the cost. Love it.

I’ve known Gary Best for the last 20+ years and I have to say that the quality of work was great back then and even better now. His technique and skill is like a fine wine…only gets better with time. Thank you for doing an amazing job on my truck. I can’t express how great it looks. He’s 100% correct when he says that the pictures do no justice. Also this truck looks better than any new vehicle. The shine will blind you. Gary will always have my respect for the quality of work he does and his work ethic. When Gary tells you something about your vehicle, take it as gospel. He will not steer you wrong. Can’t say enough about how great of a job he did. The only reason it isn’t home with me today is because was pouring when i went to get it, so tomorrow she comes home. Don’t trust anyone else with this type of work. Gary may cost more than others, but you won’t regret it, I promise you. You get what you pay for, and this is definitely rated OUTSTANDING, ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ (yes, 5 stars) Thanks again, Gary!!!!

I bought my car in April of 2023 brand new. It was a monumental moment for me being able to buy a brand new car on my own. Hadn't done that since I bought my only other brand new car, a Pontiac Bonneville in 1988. I named my 2023 Peaches because I bought her in Savannah and everyone knows Georgia is The Peach State 😁 Living in an apt I really didn't have the abilities to hand wash my car and face it, laziness and convenience was added factor so I did what so many of us do, I ran my car thru car wash daily. In fact I had a monthly pass both there and when I moved back here to Maryland because I like my car clean and working at a bus lot in both states the dust is something you can't escape. Then I started noticing things about my car that I was unhappy about. The water spots that would not wipe out, the swirl scratches in the paint was incredible. So I did alittle research and reached out to Gary Best at Pro Ceramic - Best Auto Salon. We've spent hours going over what my visions/hopes are for my car. Anyone that knows me knows my favorite colors are purple and black. My favorite place to be is the beach. Soooooo I'm making my car to reflect ME while fixing the damage done by using even the best car washes. Gary got the water stains out of the paint and chrome, he corrected paint damages/flaws, he painted my brake calipers "plum cray cray purple" 😜 and he completely ceramic coated my car, plastic, windows and wheels!!! Words cannot describe how excited and happy I am about how awesome my car looks and feels. The paint looks brand new, slick as glass and mirror finish!! And those calipers are beautiful in purple!!! The compete ceramic coat has a 5 year warranty with Gary too!! Thank you Gary for having the immense patience with me and my crazy ideas!! Purple calipers is just the beginning my friends 😜 Phase two...... working on scheduling that now but phase two..... it's gonna be EPIC and make my car one of a kind and ALL ABOUT ME!! Its gonna combine my love of purple and black and my favorite place in the world, the beach!! 💜🖤 🐚 🐚🐚 💜🖤 Folks I would think twice about ever taking your car in car washes again!!! I treat my car very well and was blown away the damage a car wash does. I have ordered the water filter system to put on my hose to filter all the bad out of the water here so the spots won't come back. Peaches has seen her last car wash!! I'm going back old school washing it by hand and Gary showed me the best way to do that using the two bucket method. The ceramic coating will not only protect it but will make the car so much easier to wash. It really does make complete sense!! I can highly recommend him and the services he offers. His attention to detail is incredible. He has expanded knowledge of paint and all the facets of it because he painted cars for years!! It's a cost that is worth every dollar. Think about how much freaking money we pay for our cars yet we don't protect them like we should to keep them in good shape and long lasting. I will say this, when I'm all done, my car will be 💯 a reflection of me!! Thank you so so so much Gary Best for all your help, patience, and time spent bringing the beauty back to my car and protecting her!!! Best decision I ever made!! 😁

I picked up my 2026 Ram Rebel from Pro Ceramic today, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Gary did an amazing job on my truck. I checked several other shops in the area—some were even cheaper for the same service—but from the very first conversation, I felt Gary’s honesty and professionalism. He’s a one-man operation, and he walked me through every step of what he planned to do with my truck. Throughout the ceramic coating process, he sent me daily photos and updates until the day I picked it up. That level of communication really stood out. What I appreciated most is that he provides a 5-year warranty on his work without requiring annual inspections, unlike other shops. Enough said—if you’re looking to get a high-quality ceramic coating for your vehicle, look no further. Pro Ceramic in Waldorf is the best option. You won’t regret it.

I have known of Gary Best and his talent for some years, but never really owned anything i felt was worthy of his skills. Fast forward to now, I was lucky enough to find a low mileage well kept Scat Pack that i thought looked pretty great. I made an appointment with Gary and we talked about just how ceramic coating worked and what i could expect. Well, I got much more than i expected. I dropped off a car that already had a nice shine. When I arrived to pick it up, it was like looking over a tranquil lake at sunrise. Like it was touched by "the lady of lake" herself. The gloss and depth was remarkable. Almost magical. Thank you Gary for making my 4 year old car look and feel better than it ever was new. Simply the "Best"

If you’re looking to have your calipers painted or any ceramic work done on your car this is the only place you need to go!! Gary Best is incredible and the work he does is worth every penny you invest. His passion and dedication to what he does is evident the minute you speak with him. I recently had the calipers painted lime green on my Acura Integra and the turnaround time was only 24 hours. From the communication, to his incredible work experience and skills, I can assure you your car is in great hands when coming to Gary and you won’t be disappointed. I can’t thank him and recommend him enough for going above and beyond with my car and transforming my integra. He’s a one man show and is absolutely AMAZING and highly skilled at what he does. I highly recommend Gary and would give 1000/10 stars if I could. Thank you so much again Gary!! ⭐️💚⭐️💚⭐️💚
