About Suave Auto Care

Originally starting out as a detailing trainee in 1997. I worked in many vehicle sales yards, one In particular, I fondly remember is, Mark Laughton Motors in Otago. As Head Detailer for both of his yards as well as selling trade-in vehicles . Winning the best presented yards 2 years in a row along with best small business of the year 2003.

I have trained with industry leading Detailers such as Jason Rose from Rupe’s USA International. And have been professionally detailing for over 25 years across the South Island, including the largest Sales group in Christchurch CMG including their Motorcycle department.

I began a journey to deliver excellence in Automotive Detailing, from Training to Managing staff and setting up workshops. From body repairs, painting and mechanical repairs and replacements and Detailing at a professional level. I decided to start a Mobile Detailing business in 2020.
