Hear from Our Customers
You didn’t invest in a high-performance vehicle to watch it lose its edge. Every swirl mark tells a story of compromise. Every dull finish whispers about settling for less.
Our auto detailing goes beyond what most shops call “complete.” We’re talking about paint correction that removes years of damage. Interior restoration that brings back that new-car feel. Protection that actually lasts.
When you drive away, you’re not just getting your car back. You’re getting your investment protected, your pride restored, and your vehicle performing exactly as it should—inside and out.
Legacy Motors and Marine wasn’t created to compete with quick-wash chains or weekend warriors. We built our facility in Port Jefferson Station specifically for collectors, enthusiasts, and owners who understand the difference between clean and protected.
Our climate-controlled environment isn’t just about comfort—it’s about precision. When you’re working on paint correction or applying ceramic coatings, temperature and humidity matter. Details matter.
Northport’s luxury vehicle owners have learned that not every detailing shop understands the value of what sits in their driveway. We do. Because we’re not just cleaning cars—we’re preserving investments.
First, we assess your vehicle’s current condition and discuss your specific needs. No two cars are identical, and no two detailing jobs should be either.
Next comes the methodical work. Paint correction removes swirl marks and scratches using multi-stage polishing. Interior detailing addresses every surface—leather, fabric, trim, and electronics. Exterior work includes hand washing, clay bar treatment, and protection application.
The final step is protection that actually works. Whether you choose ceramic coating for long-term durability or premium wax for immediate results, you’re getting products and application techniques that deliver what they promise. Your vehicle leaves our facility looking exactly as it should—and staying that way longer than you might expect.

Our full interior and exterior detailing covers everything from engine bay cleaning to leather conditioning. Paint correction removes imperfections that most shops can’t even see. Ceramic coating provides protection that lasts years, not months.
For Northport’s luxury vehicle owners, we understand the specific challenges of Long Island driving. Salt air from the nearby coast. Road salt in winter. Sun exposure that fades trim and damages paint. Our detailing process addresses these local conditions specifically.
Commercial fleet owners get the same attention to detail. Your vehicles represent your business, and every truck or van in your fleet affects how customers see your brand. We provide hand washes and full detailing services that keep your commercial vehicles looking professional and well-maintained.
Paint correction timing depends on your vehicle’s current condition and the level of correction needed. A single-stage correction typically takes 4-6 hours, while multi-stage correction for heavily damaged paint can take 8-12 hours or more.
We don’t rush the process because precision matters more than speed. Each section of your vehicle gets individual attention, and we work under controlled lighting to ensure we catch every imperfection. Most clients schedule paint correction as a full-day service, and we provide progress updates throughout the process.
The investment in proper paint correction pays off in results that last. When done correctly, your vehicle’s paint will look better than it has in years and maintain that appearance longer with proper maintenance.
Our showroom-ready detailing is comprehensive interior and exterior restoration. Exterior work includes multi-stage hand washing, clay bar treatment, paint correction as needed, and protection application. We also detail the engine bay, restore trim, and ensure every exterior surface meets showroom standards.
Interior detailing covers deep cleaning of all surfaces—leather conditioning, fabric protection, dashboard and trim restoration, window cleaning, and thorough vacuuming of all areas including hard-to-reach spaces. We use products specifically chosen for your vehicle’s materials.
The goal isn’t just clean—it’s showroom condition. Every detail is addressed, from wheel wells to air vents. When we’re finished, your vehicle looks and feels exactly as it did when you first fell in love with it.
Yes, we specialize in ceramic coating application for high-performance and luxury vehicles. Our ceramic coatings provide superior protection compared to traditional wax, lasting 2-5 years depending on the product and your driving conditions.
The application process requires proper paint preparation, which often includes paint correction to ensure the coating bonds correctly. We work in our climate-controlled facility to maintain optimal conditions during application and curing.
Ceramic coating offers several advantages for performance vehicles: enhanced gloss, easier maintenance, protection from UV damage, and resistance to chemical stains. For Northport drivers dealing with salt air and harsh weather conditions, ceramic coating provides long-term protection that traditional products simply can’t match.
Vintage and collectible vehicles require specialized knowledge and techniques that most detailing shops don’t possess. We understand the unique challenges of working with older paints, original finishes, and irreplaceable trim pieces.
Our approach to collectible vehicles is conservative and methodical. We use products and techniques appropriate for the age and condition of your vehicle. Single-stage paints require different treatment than modern clear coats. Original leather needs different care than contemporary materials.
We also understand the importance of preservation versus restoration. Sometimes the goal is maintaining original patina rather than achieving a modern showroom finish. We work with collectors to determine the appropriate level of intervention for each specific vehicle and its intended use.
Our climate-controlled facility provides advantages that mobile detailing simply cannot offer. Temperature and humidity control are critical for proper paint correction and coating application. We also have access to specialized equipment, controlled lighting, and professional-grade tools.
Paint correction requires specific lighting conditions to see imperfections clearly. Ceramic coating application needs dust-free environments and precise temperature control. These services cannot be properly performed in a driveway or parking lot.
We also offer secure storage and concierge services that mobile detailing cannot provide. Your vehicle is protected throughout the entire process, and we can coordinate pickup and delivery for clients who prefer that convenience. The result is professional-grade work that meets the standards your investment deserves.
The frequency depends on how you use your vehicle and what level of protection you want to maintain. Daily drivers typically benefit from full detailing every 3-4 months, while garage-kept collectibles might only need annual attention.
Maintenance washes between full detailing sessions help preserve your investment. If you have ceramic coating, maintenance is easier but still important. We recommend monthly maintenance washes and quarterly inspection of the coating condition.
For vehicles exposed to harsh conditions—salt air, road salt, or frequent driving—more frequent attention may be necessary. We work with each client to develop a maintenance schedule that fits their usage patterns and protection goals. The key is consistency rather than waiting until damage becomes visible.
