    I would renegotiate your deal and have him take $250 off the price and use that to buy your own supplies to do it yourself or take it to a detailer recommended on here. Where are you located?
    I second this idea.

    Re: New car from dealer with micro swirls

    I can think of very few industries that "you get what you pay for" applies more to than Detailing. I'm with most of you, I ask the dealership not to wash/prep/anything the vehicle when I purchase it. I do use dealerships for oil changes and routine mechanical service but I always have to remind them. "Just change the oil and rotate the tires, I'll wash it myself".

    It is too bad as there are some good "detailers" in dealerships, but the constant pressure they get to turn vehicles quickly, doesn't allow them to use the skills they have.
