Thanks!

Wow! Great work there! If you don't mind me asking how long and how much did you charge for that one?

I spent about 2 hours on Saturday washing, claying, and working on the interior. Today...about 7 hours polishing, sealing, 303 on the interior, windows, finishing up, etc.

I undercharge because I do this on the side simply because I love detailing. $150 with a generous tip. If I were doing this for my main income, I would've charged minimum $250-300.

Now that is a nice detail. What a change in the carpets. What was your process with those?

[Nica]

Very nice, the exterior looks wicked and the interior is very nice. I like the way the carpet look, I do love those stripes.

I agree with you, I've detailed some vehicles at no charge just because I want to. It's nice getting paid but it's the reaction of the owner that I love the most.

Very nice job...oh I too like the way the tires look and the taping job looks good.

Thanks for sharing.

<edit> where is the fence picture? I love those shots with the fence ;)

Sevenrd, I always enjoy your details. Looks like you had your hands full on this one. Awesome turnaround.

[devst8]

those carpets were nasty! great turnaround!

[Gary Sword]

Great Job Sevenrd! You always do some excellant work. I didn't think the floor mats would have come out as clean as you got them.

Very nice detail!! I love it! The interior looked really bad! Now its like new! :D

[hophung3]

I was so impressed by Mike's detail that all I could say was "good job" when I went to pick up the car :o. The turnaround was definitely beyond expectation, considering this is the first time that this car (inherited from wife) has received any TLC.

really nice job on an older car

[Dust2Glory]

even for a side job you need to charge more... that is a stunning turn around. can you define all the products you used. still trying to learn. but still, you need to charge more, that is time out of your life
