Mobile Detailing Service | Big Island Hawaii | Zippy Klean
Home › Mobile Detailing Service

We come to you. Or you come to us.

Mobile across West and North Hawaiʻi, or drop-off at our Kona shop near Magic Sands Beach Park with no travel fee. We arrive with every machine and material the job needs — all we ask for is water and power. Seven days a week, 6am to 6pm, because the best working conditions on this island are before the sun gets high.

What it looks like

Your driveway, our whole shop

We bring every machine, pad, compound and chemical the job needs. The two things we cannot bring are water and power — so all we ask is access to an outside spigot and an outlet, and the rest arrives in the van.

Where we work

Where we work
  • West & North Hawaiʻi — everything. Kailua-Kona, Holualoa, Keauhou, Captain Cook, Kealakekua, Waikoloa, Waimea, Hawi and the Kohala Coast. Mobile at your home or office, or drop-off at our Kona shop near Magic Sands Beach Park.
  • East side — coatings only, mobile only. Hilo, Keaau, Pahoa, Volcano and the Puna district get Stealth Diamond Borograph and Liquid PPF packages. Detailing and paint correction stay West and North side.
  • Travel fee: $50$52 card past 20 miles outside the Kona district. No fee if you drop off at the shop. We give you the exact address when you book.

The East side limit is logistics, not preference. A coating is a planned job we can staff properly for the drive over. A detail is not, and pretending otherwise would mean cancelling on people. So we say it up front: Hilo, Keaau, Pahoa, Volcano and Puna get coatings, mobile only.

What to expect

How mobile works

  • We bring the equipment. You supply water and power. Every machine, pad, towel and product the job needs arrives with us. What we need from you is somewhere to park with room to work around the vehicle, a few hours, and an outside tap and a power point.
  • Shade helps a lot. Working in direct Kona sun makes products flash off before they can be worked properly, which costs you result. A carport, a garage or a shaded spot is ideal — not essential, but say what you have when you book.
  • You do not have to be there. Plenty of customers leave keys and go to work.
  • Coatings need more than details do. A dry, controlled surface and a cure window. Wind carrying dust or salt spray onto wet coating is a real risk near the coast, and we will tell you honestly if your spot is not right for it.
  • We do not work coatings in the rain. We will call and postpone rather than rush a coating onto damp paint to keep a schedule.
  • Or drop it at the Kona shop. No travel fee, controlled lighting, nothing blowing onto wet product. Better for brightwork, motorcycles and heavy correction.

Why we start at 6am. Panel temperature matters for both polishing and coating, and a 6am surface in Kona is a very different thing to a 1pm one. Early starts are not us being heroic — they are us getting the better result.

The travel fee, explained

Prices shown are cash prices. Pay by cash or check and that is what you pay. The card price is shown in grey beside every figure — slightly higher, because card processing costs us that. Nothing is added at checkout either way: both prices are on the page before you book.

Hawaii GET is added at invoice and shown as its own line, at the state maximum visible pass-on of 4.712% (4% state + 0.5% Hawaiʻi County surcharge). Prices on this page do not include it.

That fee goes straight to the technician working your job. Gas on this island runs well above the mainland and the run to the north or east side is real time in the truck. It covers their fuel and their windshield time — it is not a markup on the service, and it is not something we keep.

We tell you the fee when you book, never when we arrive.

Jim KoolerOctober 2026

We had our 2023 Bronco Sport treated with the Borophene ceramic coating and it makes the car look brand new! We are fortunate to leave by the ocean, but that comes with the challenge of salt spray putting a film on the car. Looking forward to much easier maintenance and the car continuing to look great! Kelson did a super job and Steven was very helpful in providing information about the options and getting us scheduled.

I got the full on ceramic service at ZippyClean. They did a great and professional job. I love it. Mahalo for such awesomeness in service 😊

Mark LeightonMay 2021

The guys at Zippy Klean did a great job buffing the scratched up dull paint job on my old Prius and making it shine like new. Appreciate, the really professional, friendly and speedy service, which included dropping me by a coffee shop while I waited. Couldn't be happier with Steven's team. Thanks!

Straight answers

Mobile service questions

What areas do you cover on the Big Island?

Everything on the West and North side — Kailua-Kona, Holualoa, Keauhou, Captain Cook, Kealakekua, Waikoloa, Waimea, Hawi and the Kohala Coast. On the East side we do coatings only, mobile only.

East side means Hilo, Keaau, Pahoa, Volcano and the Puna district. Those get Stealth Diamond Borograph and Liquid PPF packages. Detailing, paint correction and polishing stay West and North side.

It is a logistics limit rather than a preference. A coating is a planned job we can staff properly for the drive; a detail is not.

Is there a travel fee?

There is a $50 fee past 20 miles outside the Kona district, and none at all at the Kona shop.

Gas on this island runs well above the mainland and the run to Waimea, Hawi, Volcano or Hilo is real time in the truck. That fee goes straight to the technician working your job — it covers their fuel and their windshield time, and it is not a markup on the service.

We tell you the fee when you book. Never when we arrive.

What do you need from me?

Somewhere to park with room to work around the vehicle, a few hours, and access to water and power. We bring every machine, pad, towel and product the job needs.

Shade helps a lot — working in direct Kona sun makes products flash off before they can be worked, which is bad for the result. A carport, a garage or a shaded spot is ideal but not essential.

You do not need to be there the whole time. Plenty of customers leave keys and go to work.

Can you do a ceramic coating mobile, or does that need a shop?

Coatings can be done mobile and we do them that way regularly, but conditions matter more than for a detail — a coating needs a dry, controlled surface and a cure window.

Wind carrying dust or salt spray onto wet coating is the main risk, and it is a real one near the coast. We will tell you honestly whether your location works or whether the shop is the better call.

The Kona shop is there for exactly that, and there is no travel fee if you bring it in.

Do you work in the rain?

Not for coatings. Details we can usually manage under cover; coatings need a dry surface and a dry cure window.

This is the Big Island, so a wet morning in Hilo and a dry afternoon in Kona can be the same day. We watch it and we will call you rather than show up and waste both our time.

If we postpone, we postpone. We will not rush a coating onto damp paint to keep a schedule.

What are your hours?

Open seven days, 6am to 6pm. We start early deliberately — the best working conditions on this island are before the sun gets high.

Early starts are not us being heroic, they are us getting the better result. Panel temperature matters for both polishing and coating, and a 6am start in Kona is a very different surface to a 1pm one.

Call or text (808) 201-6005. We answer seven days.

Can I drop it off instead?

Yes. We have a shop in Kona and there is no travel fee if you bring the vehicle in.

Shop work is better for anything fiddly — brightwork, motorcycles, heavy correction — because the lighting is controlled and nothing is blowing onto wet product.

Tell us when you book which you would prefer.
