Our Story
Introducing “The Professor,” Peter Rossi — founder of Professor Detail Auto Care, LLC. Peter’s passion for cars started early, earning him the nickname “the car encyclopedia” among friends. What began as childhood curiosity quickly grew into a lifelong obsession with understanding, caring for, and perfecting automobiles.
​
Peter discovered detailing at 13, after spending a blazing hot summer afternoon reviving his family’s old Toyota Highlander. When his father stepped back and said, “This looks like a real detail; you could turn this into a business,” the spark was lit. Soon after, Peter was offering $20 car washes to friends and family, quietly sharpening the skills that would shape his future.
​
In college, Peter spent his freshman year working at a local detailing garage, learning professional techniques and processes. The next year, he launched Pete’s Sac-O-Suds Mobile Auto Detailing, growing it steadily while earning a Marketing degree from Pace University, where he graduated Summa Cum Laude.
​
After a year at a New York City marketing agency, Peter made the decision to return to what he truly loved: auto detailing. He rebranded his business as Professor Detail — a professional, knowledge-driven auto care service built on expertise, precision, and a lifelong passion for delivering the highest level of detail.
