Meet Tony Mint. Expect personal care.
Over 30 years of detailing expertise, a passion for vehicle care and a direct connection to the owner.
From a family passion to Absolutely Mint.
Tony Marlak, known to customers as Tony Mint, is the owner of Absolutely Mint Auto Detailing. His passion began at age 11, learning to detail alongside his grandfather at the family dealership. Summers around cars became a lifelong commitment to the craft.
From a mobile operation working out of an SUV and a home garage, Tony grew the business into a dedicated shop. Today, he brings 30+ years of detailing expertise to the 9,400-square-foot Absolutely Mint facility at 554 Main St in Oakville, serving Watertown and Connecticut.
Whether you are weighing a full detail, paint correction or a coating, you can speak directly with Tony. Explain what you see, what you want to improve and how you use your vehicle. That conversation shapes the work.
A premier detailing destination in the Watertown area.
Our 9,400-square-foot state-of-the-art facility supports the Absolutely Mint approach: discuss the condition, choose the appropriate work and care for the result.
We detail cars, boats, RVs and aircraft, with scope and access agreed individually. System X certification supports our System X coating offering; REVIVIfy Carbon X is a separate product option.
