Why Powell Drivers Choose Knox Details
Powell’s Emory Road and Clinton Highway corridors see heavy truck and construction traffic year-round, leaving unprotected vehicles with chipped hoods and pitted bumpers. Paint protection film is especially popular among Powell residents who trailer boats to Norris Lake, where gravel and highway speeds take a toll on front-end paint.
Ceramic coating repels pollen and tree sap that build up along the Norris Lake corridor, while window tinting cuts the intense afternoon sun that Powell commuters face heading south on Emory Road.

Powell PPF and Ceramic Coating FAQs
How far is Knox Details from Powell, TN?
Our shop at 116 Sherway Rd in West Knoxville is approximately 25 minutes from Powell via I-75 South and Pellissippi Parkway. Most customers drop off in the morning and pick up the same afternoon.
Do you offer paint protection film for trucks and boats used near Norris Lake?
Absolutely. PPF is one of the best investments for truck owners who regularly trailer to Norris Lake. Gravel roads, highway debris, and boat ramp grit are hard on front-end paint. We offer partial and full-front XPEL PPF packages built for working vehicles.
What window tint options are available for Powell residents?
We install XPEL PRIME XR PLUS™, PRIME XR™, and PRIME CS™ films. These block up to 98% of infrared heat, a major benefit for Powell drivers who commute south on Emory Road into direct afternoon sun. All films are backed by XPEL’s manufacturer’s warranty.
Is ceramic coating worth it for vehicles driven on Clinton Highway?
Yes. Clinton Highway and the Emory Road corridor see significant truck and construction traffic, which means more airborne contaminants landing on your paint. A ceramic coating creates a hard, slick surface that resists bonding from road grime, tar, tree sap, and pollen, keeping your vehicle cleaner longer.
How long does a full PPF, ceramic coating, or tint installation take?
Window tinting is typically completed same-day. Partial PPF installs (hood, fenders, mirrors) usually take one day; full-front or full-vehicle PPF may require two days. Ceramic coating packages range from one to three days, depending on the level selected. We’ll give you an exact timeline when you book.

Client Reviews
Based on Google Reviews
Just wanted to give a huge shoutout to Knox Details. They laid down some XPEL Paint Protection Film for me on my wife’s 2021 Toyota Highlander. These guys have been great to deal with from the first phone call, through the install, all the way to the pickup. They did a great job and I cannot be more satisfied. Huge thank you to Tim Buxton and the installer Thomas. Hit up Knox Details for all of your detailing, and paint protection needs!

After a ton of research we chose Knox Details to get our 2017 Porsche Panamera protected and what a great choice!! Tim and his staff were very professional and exceptionally knowledgeable in all my questions. We had the front-end full PPF, ceramic coated and detailed the interior at a great price! Any and all concerns were put to rest when we picked up the car. Looks AWESOME!! I can’t wait to get my 2018 Z06 done!! Thanks Knox Details

I was very impressed with Knox Details. My car looks better then expected. My car is 10 yrs old and getting traded in within a couple years. I didn’t want to sink a bunch of money into it, so I went with a cheaper service. Yes, there are still defects, but the car looks better than I thought it would. Defects I expected to be noticeable are not. Defects I expected to be very visible are there because I know to look for them. I am very happy with the service I received. Jordan even went above and beyond on an unrelated issue. As someone that has worked in customer service for 20+ years, I was impressed.

Fantastic job on our new Buick Envision Avenir pretty much can’t see where the film starts and ends.
We are very pleased thank you Knox Details.

Tim and his team are bar far the best at what they do in east TN. We’ve have them do two cars and I won’t go anywhere else. It’s not the closest place to me nor is he going to be the cheapest but you get what you pay for. Thanks again Tim!!
