Transparency & Support at the HQ
At DetailShineHQ, my goal is to provide the most honest, technical, and actionable car detailing advice on the web. To keep the lights on and the “test cars” clean, I participate in various affiliate marketing programs.
How This Works
When you click on a link to a product on this site and make a purchase, I may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. I am a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program. This is designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. I may also partner with specialized detailing brands that I personally trust and use in my own garage.
The Mitch Wells Integrity Pledge
I’ve spent 15 years in the garage, and my reputation is worth more to me than a quick commission.
- Honest Reviews: I only recommend gear and chemicals that I have personally tested or thoroughly researched.
- Editorial Independence: Brands cannot pay me for a “positive” review. If a ceramic coating fails or a soap is too harsh, I’ll tell you.
- Your Support Matters: These commissions help me buy more products to test, allowing me to keep providing free, high-quality guides for the DIY community.
If you have any questions about how I monetize this site, please feel free to reach out via my Contact Page.
I’m Mitch, and I’ve spent over 15 years with a polisher in my hand and a passion for detailing cars I founded DetailShineHQ to strip away the gatekeeping in the car care world and make professional-grade results accessible to everyone.
From restoring the deep luster on high-end classics to tackling "biohazard" interior disasters, I’ve tested almost every chemical and tool on the market. My goal is simple: to help you achieve a showroom finish in your own driveway using straightforward, DIY-friendly methods that actually work. When I’m not testing the latest ceramic coatings, you’ll probably find me in the garage chasing that perfect, glass-like reflection.
