Well, in this instance you're right & wrong.

As I mentioned earlier there are several excellent detailers .. i.e. wet sanding, polishing under carriage detailing. They can be found on many of the other detailing forums since many rely on "word of mouth" advertising rather than website etc.

If you're in VA then I'm guessing you lived in the FL area that you would know? I guess your comment hit home with me just because it seems to me that it is an uninformed comment.

No worries though ......

P.S. It's impossible to be *usually* right ALL the time.

Good catch on my wording, it was to be funny, as I am sure you figured out.

Don't worry Shawn David may be having an off day so I wouldn't come down on him too hard just yet.

I too like the way Shade Tree has worded it.

I'm also interested in this no micro edge thing. I'd love to see some finished tints once you have finished. I think that this would be a great upsell advantage, because if someone was really impressed with the detail they just got, they will feel quite confident about your tinting services.

Maybe if you were to offer a small discount when they were purchase services over a certain value. Say, if they were to get a 3 step paint correction, then they are entitled to a small percentage (maybe 5%) off the price of tinting.

Still, I can't wait to see some finished pics!!!
