Shining Success: How Wise Choice Detailing is Raising the Bar in Hampton, Iowa

When it comes to keeping a vehicle looking its best, few names in Hampton, Iowa, shine brighter than Wise Choice Detailing. Owned and operated by Ronald Wise, this family-run business has quickly become a trusted destination for car owners who want more than just a basic wash — they want showroom-quality results.

 

What is Wise Choice Detailing?

Wise Choice Detailing is a full-service auto detailing shop specializing in everything from meticulous hand washes to advanced ceramic coatings and (available January 2026) paint protection film (PPF) applications. Whether it’s reviving the interior of a daily driver or protecting the paint on a prized sports car, the team offers professional-grade services backed by industry certifications.

Ron and his team are proud members of the International Detailers Association (IDA) and are the only local certified shop in ceramic coatings. This commitment to industry standards ensures every customer gets results that meet the highest level of craftsmanship.

 

Why Does Wise Choice Detailing Matter to the Community?

Beyond their technical expertise, Wise Choice Detailing has deep roots in the local area. Ron has lived in the region his entire life and actively supports nearby communities. From hosting car wash fundraisers for the West Fork Warhawks to serving as a Scoutmaster for over a decade, Ron brings the same dedication to his community as he does to his craft.  Wise Choice Detailing isn’t just about cars — it’s about relationships, trust, and giving back.

 

Services That Set Them Apart

Wise Choice Detailing provides:

• Hand Wash & Full Detailing: Every service is tailored to the needs of the vehicle, with precision and care in every step.
• Ceramic Coatings: Offering the latest technology, including lifetime coatings that provide unmatched durability and shine.
• Paint Protection Film (PPF) (available starting January 2026): PPF shields vehicles from chips, scratches, and environmental damage, and will be available in a range of colors.
• Fleet Services: Ideal for businesses looking to maintain a professional image with clean, protected vehicles.

Each service uses professional-grade products to ensure long-lasting results.

 

A Passion for Perfection

Ron’s background as a body man and restoration technician for classic and antique vehicles shaped his perfectionist approach. While many shops focus on quick turnarounds, Wise Choice Detailing takes the time to deliver flawless finishes. For Ron, it’s about more than just appearance — it’s about preserving the value and beauty of every vehicle.

 

Community and Family at the Core

Wise Choice Detailing is truly a family operation. Ron works alongside his son and adopted daughter, creating a warm, personal environment that customers immediately notice. This family-first mindset extends to the way the business interacts with customers, treating each project as if it were their own vehicle.

 

A Growing Local Success Story

Since reopening in May 2025, Wise Choice Detailing has gone from servicing a couple of vehicles a week to being booked out over a week in advance. They’re now expanding into fleet work and wholesale product sales, aiming to become the one-stop shop for all detailing and protection needs in and around Hampton.

 

A Tagline with a Promise

“Make the Wise Choice” isn’t just a clever play on the owner’s name — it’s a quiet assurance that every vehicle will receive the same attention, care, and skill as if it were their own. It speaks to the confidence customers can have when trusting their cars to certified hands.

 

Looking Ahead

Ron envisions Wise Choice Detailing as Hampton’s premier destination for auto detailing, coatings, and protection. With plans to expand services, carry retail products, and potentially add mobile semi-truck detailing, the future looks bright.

In a town where trust and quality matter, Wise Choice Detailing continues to polish its reputation, one vehicle at a time.
