Hear from Our Customers
You didn’t buy an ordinary vehicle, so why settle for ordinary care? Your exotic car or luxury vehicle needs detailing that matches its caliber.
We deliver results that go beyond what typical shops offer. Paint correction that actually removes defects instead of hiding them. Ceramic coatings that protect against Long Island’s salt air and road debris for years, not months. Hand washing techniques that preserve delicate finishes instead of creating new scratches.
Every service protects your investment while maintaining the precise standards your vehicle was built to. No corners cut, no generic treatments – just professional-grade auto detailing that keeps your vehicle performing and looking exactly as it should.
Legacy Motors and Marine serves North Patchogue’s most discerning vehicle owners with specialized automotive care that goes beyond typical detailing services. We understand what exotic cars, luxury vehicles, and vintage collectibles actually need.
Our facility was built specifically for owners who refuse to compromise on quality. We don’t just clean cars – we preserve investments. Every auto detailing service is performed with the precision and respect that high-value vehicles demand.
North Patchogue’s coastal environment creates unique challenges for vehicle care. Salt air, road debris, and seasonal extremes require protection methods that most shops simply don’t understand. We do, and your vehicle benefits from that expertise every time.
First, we assess your vehicle’s specific condition and requirements. This isn’t a quick look – we examine paint depth, identify any defects, and create a customized plan based on what your particular vehicle needs.
Next comes decontamination using clay bar treatment to remove embedded contaminants that washing alone can’t touch. For paint correction, we use multi-stage polishing with progressively finer compounds to eliminate swirls, scratches, and oxidation that diminish both appearance and value.
Finally, we apply protective treatments like ceramic coating or premium sealants that shield your investment from UV damage, road salt, and environmental contaminants. Every step happens in our climate-controlled facility where temperature and humidity stay consistent for optimal results.

Our auto detailing services address the specific challenges that North Patchogue vehicle owners face. Full interior and exterior detailing, paint correction, ceramic coating, and specialized care for high-performance vehicles that typical shops can’t handle properly.
Long Island’s coastal location means constant exposure to salt air, road debris, and UV rays that can quickly damage unprotected surfaces. Our detailing process counters these local conditions with advanced protection methods designed for our specific environment.
From hand washing that preserves delicate finishes to paint protection film installation, every service maintains the standards your vehicle requires. We also handle commercial fleet detailing for businesses that need their vehicles to project the right professional image consistently.
For luxury and high-performance vehicles, professional auto detailing every 3-4 months provides optimal protection and appearance. The exact frequency depends on driving habits, storage conditions, and exposure to elements.
Vehicles parked outdoors or driven frequently on Long Island’s salt-treated winter roads need more attention. Cars in climate-controlled storage can extend intervals to 6 months. The key is maintaining protective barriers like ceramic coating that shield paint from environmental damage.
Regular professional auto detailing preserves your investment’s value and prevents costly paint correction work later. It’s maintenance that pays for itself by avoiding more expensive repairs down the road.
Paint correction actually removes defects from your clear coat, while regular polishing just temporarily masks imperfections. True correction requires specialized equipment and expertise to safely eliminate swirl marks, scratches, and oxidation without damaging underlying paint.
Our paint correction process uses progressively finer abrasives to level the clear coat surface, removing defects that cause dull, hazy appearance. This creates a perfectly smooth surface that reflects light uniformly, restoring that deep, mirror-like finish you see on showroom vehicles.
Results last significantly longer than traditional polishing because we fix the problem instead of covering it up. Most vehicles show dramatic improvement in gloss and clarity that lasts years with proper maintenance.
Absolutely. Long Island’s coastal environment exposes vehicles to salt air, road debris, UV rays, and temperature extremes that quickly degrade unprotected paint. Ceramic coating provides durable protection that bonds chemically with your clear coat.
Unlike traditional wax lasting 3-4 months, quality ceramic coating protects for years with proper maintenance. It makes washing easier, reduces water spotting, and provides superior resistance to environmental contaminants common in our area.
For luxury and exotic vehicles, ceramic coating is essential protection that maintains resale value while reducing long-term maintenance costs. The initial investment prevents paint damage that would require expensive correction or refinishing work later.
We provide both mobile services and facility-based auto detailing depending on what’s required. Basic maintenance can be performed at your location for convenience. Advanced services like multi-stage paint correction, ceramic coating, and specialized exotic car care happen at our climate-controlled facility.
Our facility provides the controlled environment necessary for optimal results with temperature-sensitive products and processes. We also offer pickup and delivery service for clients who want mobile convenience with facility-quality results.
For North Patchogue residents, we arrange flexible scheduling that accommodates your preferences while ensuring your vehicle receives the precise care it requires.
We specialize exclusively in high-end vehicles and understand the unique requirements of exotic cars, luxury vehicles, and vintage collectibles. Our facility was designed specifically for these vehicles, with climate-controlled environments and specialized equipment most general shops don’t have.
Our team has extensive experience with exotic vehicle nuances – from ground clearance concerns to paint sensitivity and specialized materials. We don’t use generic processes that might work for everyday cars but are inappropriate for your investment.
Every auto detailing service is customized based on your vehicle’s specific needs, manufacturer requirements, and your preferences. We treat every vehicle like our own because we understand the passion and investment that high-end ownership represents.
Service time varies based on your vehicle’s condition and requested services. Basic exterior auto detailing takes 3-4 hours, while comprehensive paint correction and ceramic coating can require 2-3 days for optimal results.
We never rush because quality results require proper preparation, application, and curing time. Ceramic coating needs specific temperature and humidity conditions plus adequate curing time to achieve maximum durability and performance.
We provide realistic timeframes upfront and keep you informed throughout the process. For extensive services, we can arrange transportation or work around your schedule to minimize inconvenience while ensuring your vehicle receives thorough attention.
