www.autopia.org has great information on how to detail your car that includes how-to's, product reviews, and other detailed write-ups similar to, if not more in-depth, than the ones I post.

Thanks though, I've read a lot of your write-ups while learning and it means a lot coming from you!

Nice tires by the way!

Baconsnake · 06-29-2009, 04:41 PM

Wow, that really is sick! How much would it cost a detailer to do that? Maybe not even as far as you went, but say 80% of that?

i<3mylegacy · 06-29-2009, 07:13 PM

omg amazing job!!

feint05 · 06-29-2009, 10:08 PM

jesus cristo, thats amazing, my car hasnt seen wax in some time, but this would be absolutely amazing

Prices vary between different detailers. I've seen people charge $80/man hour and spend 50 hours on a car. I've also seen someone on the opposite end of the spectrum that charged $85 for a 14 hour detail. It all depends on the target customers, experience/credibility, and marketing ability.
