Hear from Our Customers
You didn’t invest in your vehicle to watch it fade. Our auto detailing goes beyond a basic wash to restore and protect what matters most. Every surface gets attention – from paint correction that eliminates swirls and scratches to ceramic coating that shields against UV rays and environmental damage.
Your car leaves looking showroom-ready, with paint that reflects like glass and an interior that feels fresh. This isn’t about making it clean. It’s about making it perfect. The kind of perfect that turns heads and holds value.
Whether you’re driving a weekend exotic or a daily luxury vehicle, you get the same meticulous care that preserves your investment and keeps you proud to drive it.
Legacy Motors and Marine has been serving Kings Park and Long Island’s automotive enthusiasts with specialized care that high-end vehicles demand. We’re not your typical detail shop. We’re the facility that exotic car collectors and luxury vehicle owners trust when nothing but perfection will do.
Our climate-controlled environment and trained technicians understand what it takes to maintain vehicles worth protecting. From vintage collectibles to modern supercars, we’ve built our reputation on treating every vehicle like it’s irreplaceable.
Located in the heart of Long Island, we’ve become the go-to destination for owners who refuse to compromise on quality. Because when you’ve invested in excellence, you deserve service that matches.
Your detailing experience starts with a thorough assessment. We examine every surface – paint, interior, chrome, and glass – to create a customized plan that addresses your specific needs.
Next comes preparation. Paint gets clay bar treatment to remove embedded contaminants, while interior surfaces are carefully cleaned and protected. If paint correction is needed, we use multi-stage polishing to eliminate imperfections before any protective coatings are applied.
The final step is protection and enhancement. Ceramic coating goes on in controlled conditions to ensure proper bonding. Interior surfaces receive appropriate treatments. You get detailed documentation of what was done and how to maintain your vehicle’s new condition. The entire process happens in our secure, climate-controlled facility.

Our auto detailing services include everything your vehicle needs to look and perform its best. Paint correction removes swirls, scratches, and oxidation using professional-grade compounds and techniques. Ceramic coating provides long-term protection with hydrophobic properties that repel water, dirt, and contaminants for years.
Interior detailing goes deep. Leather gets conditioned, carpets are extracted, and every surface is cleaned and protected. For Kings Park’s coastal climate, this protection matters. Salt air and seasonal weather can damage both exterior paint and interior materials without proper care.
We handle specialty services like headlight restoration, trim renewal, and engine bay detailing. Commercial fleet owners get professional hand wash services that keep vehicles representing their brand properly. Every service is tailored to your vehicle’s specific needs and your expectations for results.
Professional auto detailing typically takes 4-8 hours depending on your vehicle’s condition and the services you choose. A basic exterior and interior detail might be completed in 4-5 hours, while comprehensive paint correction with ceramic coating can take a full day.
We don’t rush the process because quality takes time. Paint correction requires multiple stages of polishing, and ceramic coating needs proper curing time to bond correctly. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront based on your vehicle’s specific needs.
For busy schedules, we can arrange to keep your vehicle overnight so you can drop it off and pick it up at your convenience. The goal is delivering perfect results without disrupting your schedule.
Ceramic coating bonds chemically with your paint to create a permanent protective layer that lasts 2+ years, while wax sits on the surface and needs reapplication every few months. Think of wax as a temporary shield and ceramic coating as permanent armor.
Ceramic coating provides superior protection against UV rays, bird droppings, tree sap, and environmental contaminants. It’s also hydrophobic, meaning water beads up and rolls off, taking dirt with it. This makes washing easier and keeps your vehicle cleaner longer.
The application process is more complex and requires professional installation in controlled conditions. Once applied, ceramic coating can’t simply be wiped off like wax – it becomes part of your paint’s protection system. For Kings Park’s coastal environment, this long-term protection is especially valuable.
Absolutely. We specialize in exotic and luxury vehicles that require specialized knowledge and handling. Our technicians understand the unique requirements of high-end paint systems, delicate trim pieces, and expensive interior materials.
We use paint-safe techniques and professional-grade products designed specifically for luxury vehicles. Our climate-controlled facility protects your vehicle during the entire process, and we have experience with everything from vintage collectibles to modern supercars.
Many of our clients are collectors and enthusiasts who trust us with vehicles worth six figures or more. We understand that these aren’t just cars – they’re investments and passion projects that deserve the highest level of care and attention to detail.
Yes, we provide mobile detailing services throughout Kings Park and the surrounding Long Island area. Our mobile units come fully equipped with professional-grade equipment, products, and everything needed to deliver quality results at your location.
Mobile service works well for maintenance washes, interior cleaning, and basic exterior detailing. For more complex services like paint correction or ceramic coating application, we recommend bringing your vehicle to our climate-controlled facility where we can ensure optimal conditions.
We’ll assess your specific needs and location to determine the best approach. Some services simply require controlled environments to achieve the results you expect, while others can be performed effectively at your home or office.
Proper maintenance starts with using the right washing techniques. Always rinse thoroughly before washing, use the two-bucket method with quality microfiber towels, and dry with clean, soft materials. Never wash in direct sunlight or when surfaces are hot.
If you have ceramic coating, avoid automatic car washes with brushes and harsh chemicals. A simple rinse often removes most dirt thanks to the hydrophobic properties. When washing is needed, use pH-neutral soaps designed for coated surfaces.
We provide detailed maintenance instructions specific to the services performed on your vehicle. This includes recommended products, washing frequency, and what to watch for. Following these guidelines ensures your investment in professional detailing pays off with lasting results and protection.
Our paint correction process uses multiple stages of professional-grade compounds and polishes to remove defects while preserving as much clear coat as possible. We assess each panel individually because paint hardness and condition can vary across your vehicle.
We use controlled lighting and measurement tools to ensure we’re removing defects completely without over-polishing. Many shops rush this process or use overly aggressive techniques that can damage your paint long-term. We take the time to do it right.
Before any correction work begins, we thoroughly decontaminate the paint and assess exactly what needs to be addressed. After correction, we apply appropriate protection to maintain the results. You get detailed before and after documentation showing exactly what was accomplished during the process.
