We know what Réunion does to a car.
autoshinecare is Réunion's professional detailing studio — based in Saint-Leu, working across the island.
Professional detailing for Réunion's conditions.
autoshinecare is a professional detailing studio based in Saint-Leu, Réunion. We provide exterior hand wash, interior deep clean, paint decontamination, machine polishing, and ceramic coating — and we've built an online course that teaches what we know in French.
Every technique we apply and every product we use is calibrated to Réunion's specific climate — a UV index regularly classified as extreme, coastal salt air, and volcanic dust from Piton de la Fournaise. This is not a mainland approach adapted for the island. It's a professional methodology developed here.
We explain what we do and why it works on every service page. We believe you should have enough information to make a confident decision before you contact us — not after.
- Based in Saint-Leu, serving vehicles across Réunion

- Full process transparency — every step explained before you book
Réunion is one of the most demanding environments for car paint on the planet.
-
UV Index 12+ The WHO classifies UV index 11+ as "extreme." Réunion regularly exceeds this. Unprotected clear coat begins to oxidise visibly at sustained exposure to this level.
-
Coastal Salt Air Salt from the Indian Ocean deposits on paint within hours of coastal driving. Standard wax cannot hold against this for more than a few weeks.
-
Volcanic Dust Ash from Piton de la Fournaise is mildly abrasive. Removing it with contact washing without foam preparation first drags it across your clear coat. That is how swirl marks accumulate on island cars.
Taught by the same hands that do the work.
The knowledge in our online course comes from the same professional practice we apply to client vehicles every working day. The instructor is the practitioner — not a content creator who has only ever taught.
Full instructor biography — name, years of experience, certifications, and credentials — will be added here before launch. Client to provide confirmed details only.
