Hear from Our Customers
Your car leaves looking better than when it rolled off the showroom floor. We’re talking deep gloss that catches light from every angle, paint that’s smooth as glass, and an interior that feels brand new again.
Our ceramic coating technology creates an invisible shield that laughs at Long Island’s harsh elements. Road salt, UV rays, bird droppings—none of it sticks around long enough to cause damage. You get months of that just-detailed look with minimal maintenance.
This isn’t about making your car look good for a week. It’s about preserving what you’ve invested in and keeping it performing at its peak for years to come.
Legacy Motors and Marine has been protecting what matters most to Long Island’s car enthusiasts and collectors since day one. We’re not your typical detail shop—we specialize in exotic cars, luxury vehicles, and vintage collectibles that demand precision.
Our Port Jefferson Station facility was built specifically for owners who understand the difference between a car wash and true automotive care. We’ve seen every type of paint system, every interior material, and every challenge that comes with maintaining high-value assets.
In Maidstone Park and across Long Island, we’ve earned our reputation by treating every vehicle like it’s our own prized possession.
First, we assess your vehicle’s current condition and discuss your specific needs. No cookie-cutter approaches here—every car gets a customized plan based on its paint type, age, and your goals.
Next comes our multi-stage preparation process. We safely remove contaminants, address any swirl marks or fine scratches, and prepare every surface for protection. This step separates professional detailing from what you’ll get at a drive-through car wash.
Finally, we apply your chosen protection—whether that’s our advanced ceramic coating for years of defense or paint protection film for ultimate durability. You walk away with documentation of what was done and how to maintain those results.

Our full interior and exterior detailing covers every surface your hands touch and your eyes see. Leather gets conditioned, carpets get deep-cleaned, and every piece of trim gets the attention it deserves.
Paint correction removes those swirl marks and fine scratches that dull your finish. We’re talking about restoring depth and clarity that makes your paint look like liquid glass. Our ceramic coating then locks in that perfection with protection that lasts years, not months.
For Maidstone Park’s luxury vehicle owners, we understand the unique challenges of Long Island driving. Salt air, road debris, and temperature swings all take their toll. Our services are specifically designed to combat what your car faces every day in this environment.
Professional-grade ceramic coatings typically last 2-5 years depending on the product and your driving conditions. Unlike traditional waxes that break down in months, ceramic coating creates a permanent bond with your paint that withstands Long Island’s harsh elements.
The longevity depends on factors like how often you drive, where you park, and how well you maintain the coating. Most of our Maidstone Park clients see excellent protection and gloss retention for 3-4 years minimum.
We’ll walk you through exactly what to expect based on your specific vehicle and usage patterns during your consultation.
Paint correction is a precise process that actually removes defects from your clear coat—swirl marks, fine scratches, oxidation, and other imperfections. Regular polishing just masks these issues temporarily with fillers and oils.
We use specialized compounds and techniques to level the clear coat surface, removing damaged material to reveal perfect paint underneath. This process requires skill and the right equipment to avoid causing more damage.
The result is paint that reflects light evenly and has that deep, mirror-like finish you see on show cars. Once corrected, your paint is ready for ceramic coating application that will maintain that perfection.
Absolutely. Vintage and collector vehicles are actually our specialty at Legacy Motors and Marine. These cars require different techniques and products than modern vehicles due to their unique paint systems and materials.
We understand the nuances of single-stage paints, delicate trim pieces, and irreplaceable interior components. Our process is adapted for each era and manufacturer to ensure we preserve originality while enhancing appearance.
Many collector car owners in the Maidstone Park area trust us because we know the difference between restoration and preservation—and when each approach is appropriate for your specific vehicle.
For high-performance and luxury vehicles, we recommend full detailing every 3-4 months, with maintenance washes in between. This schedule keeps your investment looking its best and prevents small issues from becoming expensive problems.
If your car is ceramic coated, you can extend this to every 6 months for full detailing since the coating provides ongoing protection. Daily drivers need more frequent attention than garage queens or weekend-only vehicles.
The key is consistency. Regular professional care costs far less than trying to restore neglected paint and interior surfaces later on.
Yes, we install high-quality paint protection film (PPF) for clients who want maximum protection against rock chips, scratches, and road debris. This is especially popular with our Maidstone Park clients who drive high-end sports cars and exotics.
PPF acts like an invisible armor for your paint, absorbing impacts that would otherwise cause permanent damage. We can do full front-end coverage, high-impact areas only, or even full-vehicle wraps depending on your needs and budget.
The film is virtually invisible when properly installed and can be removed later without damaging your original paint. It’s the ultimate protection for vehicles that see regular road use.
The difference is in the details—literally. Car washes focus on speed and volume. We focus on precision and preservation of your investment. Our technicians are trained specifically for high-value vehicles that require careful handling.
We use pH-balanced products, proper wash techniques, and controlled environments to prevent the swirl marks and scratches that automatic washes cause. Every step is designed to enhance rather than just clean your vehicle.
Most importantly, we understand that your car isn’t just transportation—it’s an investment, a passion, or both. That level of care and respect shows in every service we perform.
