Trained and certified
by the best in the trade.
Our accreditations mean we've been trained and approved by the brands whose products we use on your car.
Protection is
our speciality.
South Wales's leading Gtechniq Accredited Partner studio, with dedicated climate-controlled booths for coatings and film.
Ceramic coatings
Our team is highly recommended for its quality and care in surface protection. We specialise in ceramic coatings, including Gtechniq Crystal Serum Ultra.
Paint protection film
From a front-end shield to a full satin conversion. Fitted by a STEK-accredited installer with years of experience, in a fully climate-controlled PPF booth.
Detailing packages
Can't decide? Choose from five set packages, from a quick safe wash to a complete detail with paint enhancement.
Matchless protection, guaranteed.
We're accredited installers of Gtechniq Crystal Serum Ultra, a market-leading ceramic coating known for its gloss, swirl resistance and durability.
Only trained, accredited professionals are allowed to install it. We apply it in a dedicated climate-controlled coating booth, so conditions are right all year round.
What we are really about.
Detailing is a personal experience. You're handing over a member of the family, or one of your biggest investments, often for a few days. So you should know who's looking after it.
JDS started with James D Smith charging £1 a car in the school holidays. It has since been shortlisted for Start-Up Business of the Year in Wales and looked after millions of pounds' worth of vehicles.
“Over the moon with my car! Cannot recommend JDS enough! Had a full paint correction and I was taken back by how different it looked! Also has my callipers redone! 5 stars all the way”
