We Are the Okemos Area’s Leading Ceramic Coating and Auto Detailing Specialists
Final Approach Detailing was built with a whole lot of passion and dreams, but also a unique desperation to make things work for our family. After 15 years in remission from a long and difficult battle with Acute Myeloid Leukemia at age 16, Travis Rook was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer in the colon with metastasis to the liver and lungs in May of 2017.
A retail manager, MBA grad, pilot, parent and spouse at the time – Travis’ world very abruptly changed with the following chemo treatments, surgeries, comorbidities and more. The further out from diagnosis we got – Travis began experiencing significant changes in his cognitive functions post treatment. In addition to these changes and the numerous appointments, tests, treatments, medication side effects and more, it became apparent at this time that a return to a typical work environment would not be in the cards any time soon.
We knew we needed a unique level of flexibility to meet our family’s needs – and we knew we would get this if we reinvested in building a business as we had done years prior. Jessica had spent the 15 years prior to this building successful businesses and immediately went into strategy mode. In 2018, Travis and Jessica sat down separately and made a list of things they were passionate about, enjoyed doing and could see themselves investing in.
Both Jessica and Travis knew they wanted to incorporate their backgrounds in the aviation and automotive industries – and they were both intimately involved with their personal vehicles and keeping them in great shape – so they decided on automotive detailing. In 2018 the ideas started flowing between treatments. In 2019, they were ready to make things formal and established a business plan, registered their business name, and began developing their strategy. The rest is history!
If you know Travis and Jessica – you know they don’t do anything subpar. If they were committing to this business and industry, they knew they were going to do things right. They invested heavily in formal education, pursued advanced certifications feverishly, and set along a path to establish themselves and their business as a highly-credentialed specialty service provider. They became heavily rooted in the industry and their craft, joining the ranks of the most well-known and sought-after groups in the industry. They remain committed to these networks day in and day out, always putting their commitments to excellence at the forefront of what they do in ceramic coating and PPF installation, paint correction, window tinting, and total vehicle detailing.

Providing Our Clients and Community with a "First-Class" Service Experience
Final Approach Detailing was officially founded in 2019, rising up from the clouds of trials and tribulations one of our owners faced throughout his young life. Establishing an auto detailing studio that specializes in ceramic coatings, paint protection film products, window tinting, paint correction, and various detailing services was only really part of the goal. We wanted to redefine the impact cars, trucks, SUVs, and other automobiles have on their owners and help make a difference in their quality as an asset in those customer’s lives. Working on countless makes and models, along with other types of vehicles most never get to, you will ALWAYS get a first-class vehicle care experience with us!
