retail is all the same. Lol. I opened a clothing store for my child's mother when we were together. You wouldn't believe my cost for a outfit that cost a customer maybe $500 or $650. Everything you buy is priced like apple. Lol

All pro versions of coatings have pricing guidelines that need to be respected by the installer. I have talked to a few companies including Optimum and Gtechniq and they also have minimum installation costs for their products. I am guessing they are trying to prevent a pricing war between installers.

Yeah just like you may find people in a competitor market do a total 2 step and interior for $200. People keep undercutting. This prevents that to keep it profitable for the detailer. A lot of people her pricing and do the math and think holy crap! I’m paying $200 an hour. What they don’t realize is they may only have one job a week. Tools product all cost. So when someone undercuts hurts all retail sales. Speaking of which how much for a bottle off cquartz finest to fall off the back of your truck?

If the detailer is doing one detail a week than that's a hobby not a career lol. I take that back.... Well at $200 a hour with 14 hours of labor+apple marketing

. That isn't too bad. That detailer is winning even with a minimum one 1 per week.
