Who We Are
Welcome to Optimus Shine — specialists in high-end mobile car detailing. Formerly The Mobile Car Specialists (65+ five-star Google reviews), we deliver outstanding results using premium products, expert hands, and a passion for perfection.
Our Beliefs
We believe real quality is built one detail at a time. It’s not about reinventing the wheel — it’s about refining it to perform at its best.
Our work is guided by integrity, old-school values, and a genuine care for the impression we leave behind. Add a touch of humour, and you’ve got a service that’s as enjoyable as it is exceptional.
Technicians
Anton Mitchell
Paintless Dent Removal Technican (of over 18 years) and all-round nice guy. Be careful to engage in conversation – you might not get away. He claims he is the most handsome of the bunch, but these claims are yet to be substantiated.
Phil Bristow
A real lover of anything mechanical, an eye for detail, and a positive attitude – Phil enjoys rolling up his sleeves as a Detailing Technician & ceramic coating specialist. Seeing the elation on customer’s faces after a job well done is what genuinely satisfies him. Also a coffee fanatic!
Our beliefs
A wise person once said something along these lines… “you don’t focus on building the biggest, greatest wall. Rather, you focus on laying each brick as best as you possibly can, then sooner or later you will have built the wall you had envisaged.” We believe in quality. Our philosophy is not new, or unique. Matter of fact it is shared by many successful people, and companies.
We don’t believe we need to re-invent the wheel, rather we need to continuously look at fine-tuning the best wheel for the job. We believe in providing a service and end-product to our customers in a manner that leaves them with a positive lasting impression. We believe we can create a business that operates top-down with integrity, honesty, good old fashioned values, and a helping spirit… all with a healthy sense of humour… and so that’s what we’re doing!

“I found The Optimus Shine Car Detailing online. From the very beginning the communication was prompt and very friendly. They quoted over the phone and explained all that was involved to give my 10 year old Toyota Corolla a bit of a facelift and touch up. Hayden not only arrived on time but asked if he could come earlier than booked. Basically unheard of today. The double polish with touch up took approximately 3 hours and my little car looks AMAZING!! The workmanship and professionalism from Hayden was outstanding. Extremely good value for money. I highly recommend the double polishing treatment (2 stage) and Hayden Brown from The Optimus Shine Car Detailing.”
