About Carsmotology

Where Passion, Precision, and a Lifetime of Experience Collide

Carsmotology isn’t just a detailing business—it’s the result of decades of dedication, discipline, and a deep love for all things automotive. Founded by Jennifer Turcotte, a nationally respected trainer and expert in the detailing industry, Carsmotology was built on the belief that every vehicle deserves elite-level care—no matter its age, make, or value.

But before Carsmotology became what it is today, it started in a much smaller garage, with grease-covered tools and a little girl watching her dad swap out engines faster than most people change a tire.

A Childhood Fueled by Gasoline and Grit

Jen grew up in Minnesota in a family where the love of cars ran deep. Her father, Steven Turcotte, was a small engine mechanic with a particular passion for restoring vintage VW Beetles—he could do a full engine swap on an air-cooled Beetle in under an hour. Jen spent countless hours in his shop, soaking up everything she could. And when she wasn’t there? She was fishing on one of Minnesota’s thousand lakes.

At age 15, Jen officially entered the automotive world with her first job at Chanhassen Carwash in Chanhassen, MN. By 18, she was working at Victory Lane Car Wash & Detail Center in Chaska, MN, under the guidance of John Trabant, a seasoned professional known for his military-like standards. John left no spot untouched, and he instilled that same discipline in Jen. He became not only her mentor, but also a father figure—shaping her into the detailer she is today.

By 21, Jen was running the shop as Assistant Manager, already setting herself apart with an eye for perfection and a work ethic built on precision, pride, and persistence. During this time, she began taking on full-scale detailing projects on the side. That passion eventually grew into a business of its own.

From Side Hustle to Industry Leader

In 2014, Jen officially launched Carsmotology—a name that reflects her belief that detailing is both an art and a science. What started as a one-woman operation quickly grew into a respected name in the industry, known for high standards, honest work, and exceptional results.

Over the years, Jen’s experience expanded beyond just detailing. She became a leader in the world of ceramic coatings and paint correction, holding several high-profile roles:

Sales Director & Director of Training for IGL CoatingsSales Director & Director of Training for Aquatek
Host and hands-on educator for national training events with Rupes
Lead instructor for detailing professionals across the country

She’s been trusted to train others on best practices, product systems, and advanced techniques—all while continuing to work hands-on with vehicles herself.

Trusted by Enthusiasts, Collectors, and Professionals Alike

Jen has worked on just about every type of vehicle imaginable—from barn finds and daily drivers to exotics and hypercars like Bugatti, Ferrari, Koenigsegg, and Lamborghini. No matter the badge on the hood, she treats every vehicle with the same level of care and respect.

Today, Carsmotology serves San Antonio, New Braunfels, Boerne, Schertz, Live Oak, Seguin and surrounding areas with boutique-level detailing services that reflect Jen’s lifelong commitment to excellence.
