At The Detail Czar Certified Auto Detailer Licensee Program, we take paint correction and Jade ceramic coating training certification to the next level.

Our hands-on approach ensures that each student gains real-world experience using industry-leading tools like Rupes Big Foot polishers, professional grade detailing and coating products, and proven techniques.

We teach you how to properly assess a vehicle’s paint condition, identify imperfections such as swirls, micro marring,  scratches, and oxidation, and execute multi-stage correction processes to restore a flawless finish. You’ll work on actual vehicles – not just test panels – so you gain the confidence needed to tackle any paint correction job professionally.

Beyond correcting and perfecting paint, we provide in-depth ceramic coating training, covering everything from surface preparation and application to proper curing and aftercare. You will learn how to apply professional-grade ceramic coatings that offer long-term protection, extreme hydrophobic properties, and an unparalleled shine.

Whether you are just starting out or looking to elevate your skills, our training equips you with the expertise to deliver showroom-quality results and increase your detailing business’s profitability.
