Forty years of doing it right.

We started out detailing Jersey City’s cars and never lowered the bar. Now we repair them too.

Our story

From detail brush to paint booth.

Waxman of Tri-State began as a family detailing studio in Jersey City, obsessing over paint one panel at a time. That obsession outgrew the building — so we opened Waxman of Tristate Auto Body & Collision Center at 18-24 Bayview Ave, a full shop where the car that gets repaired is finished to the same standard as the car that gets detailed.

Our own paint booth — color matched to the panel, not the code
An insurance desk that writes supplements and deals with your carrier
The same finish obsession the family built its name on

What we stand for

Three rules every job is checked against

We hire by them, train by them and inspect by them. If a repair fails one of these, it doesn't leave the shop.

Fix it like we own it

If a gap isn't even or a color doesn't flow across the panel, it goes back. Every car gets the repair we'd want on our own.

One accountable team

Estimator, painter, tech and front desk work under one roof. One name on the job, one number to call, no finger-pointing.

No surprise invoices

You approve the estimate before we start. If teardown reveals hidden damage, we call you and the carrier first — never after.

Trained & accredited

The names behind the work

We install materials from manufacturers we trust — and our techs train to their programs, not just their price lists.

Inside the shop

Built for factory-spec repair.

A dedicated paint booth, full repair bays and a clean film-installation area — everything a repair needs happens under our roof, not a subcontractor's.

Our sister studio

Where the name was made.

Waxman of Tri-State — our detailing studio at 1505 John F Kennedy Blvd — has been washing, correcting and ceramic-coating Jersey City's cars since 1998. It's where our finish standard comes from, and it's still just minutes from the collision center.
