Gorgeous viper!! Man! Does he let you drive it around the block at least when you're done?? You could do it after washing and telling him it's to guarantee that the water doesn't collect anywhere! I was always a huge fan of #7! I thought nothing could top it, but I tell you I used the XMT finishing glaze on my mom's car this time when I did it and it was so beautiful. I have to try the XMT on my car now to see if I really saw what I think I saw on my mom's! I know what you mean about leaving tried and true products. Meg's is good but the only thing is that you have to be so careful with it to make sure it doesn't accidentally get on any trim. Your pics look great! I can't wait to see the next ones.

Justin, what would you typically charge for what you did on the Viper? Looks sweet! One of my favorite cars.

Usually would charge 250.00 but I'm giving him a deal since I'm doing 5.
900.00 for all 5.
Washing bi-weekly for 50.00 per car and waxing once per month for 75.00.
And yeah, he drives the Viper.

It's surprising what wealthy people will pay. I would probably get shot if I said "can I detail your car for $250, or wash your car for $50 in my area! They just take it to the local full service car wash and get it done for $10 or so. Full hand wax $39! You definitely have to have the clientel to bring prices like that. Good for you---it's hard work! Now I know how you can pay for that monster of a pad you have!

Marketing is a major key. Believe me, I have those that biotch at my prices...I just say thankyou and walk away.
You just have to go to where the money is. Remember, you have to be a salesman with skills when start a business.

Just show them the picture portfolio I used to detail a little on the side and most of my jobs came from word of mouth. That's all I wanted to to was make a little money on the side---full time job, wife, 2 kids, mortgage, daycare, 2 car payments, cr. card debt, utilities, etc., etc., had to make ends meet somehow. It all worked out.....that was in the 90's Now I'm getting the bug again....
