FORT WORTH, Texas, Oct. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — SouthernPlex announces filing for AirProtect Group, Inc. and its entrance into the aircraft services market, offering high-end detailing, protective coatings, and maintenance services tailored to private airports, aircraft owners, and operators. SouthernPlex Group, a Texas‑based venture growth and media firm, has acquired a strategic stake in the new company, enabling AirProtect to rapidly scale operations across key Texas markets. “Aircraft detailing and maintenance is about more than appearance — it’s about preserving asset value and operational readiness,” said Tim Warner, founder of AirProtect. “Our partnership with SouthernPlex is a launchpad to bring elevated service to general aviation clients across Texas.”

AirProtect, a Veteran Owned business will deliver a comprehensive package of services including exterior washes (dry and wet), brightwork polishing, paint revival, window restoration, interior detailing, leather conditioning, protective coatings, sanitization, and hangar-based maintenance support. The company’s approach is inspired by best practices in aircraft detailing and restoration — which emphasize precision, premium materials, minimizing downtime, and maximizing aircraft asset protection.
The U.S. business aviation sector presents a rapidly growing opportunity. Owners and operators increasingly demand turnkey, high‑quality services that protect aircraft value, reduce wear, and maintain aesthetics. Industry patterns point to emerging professional detailing and maintenance services becoming essential to preserving resale value and meeting client expectations. In backing AirProtect, SouthernPlex sees this as the next frontier service based business. Preston Howell, CEO of SouthernPlex, commented, “We are thrilled to be aligned with Mr. Warner and AirProtect’s impressive positioning and overall vision. We believe that AirProtect’s focus on craftsmanship and operational rigor will fill a premium niche in maintaining and detailing aircraft across this dynamic market.”
Looking ahead, AirProtect plans to expand beyond core detailing into broader maintenance services, including coordination with local FBOs (Fixed Base Operators), tie‑ins with MROs (Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul shops), and partnerships with private airport operators to deliver on-site service and concierge hubs. The company aims to embed deep into airport ecosystems and scale into adjacent states as it rolls out its operations.
