    Chevy Volt Prepped for SALE - Part of my new offerings

    So a friend from a racing forum I'm a part of took a new job that's moving him to Japan thus he is in the midst of selling his wife's daily driver. It's a low mileage 2013 Chevy Volt that honestly is a super nice pick up for someone in the market.

    We agreed upon my Clean & Prep for Sale or Trade Packageas it's a perfect match for what he was looking to have done. A complete cleaning of the interior less any steam cleaning. Although I did spot-check a few minor areas that needed it. Exterior wise, the result of all that was done left a glass-like smooth feel to the paint finish sealed up with a season long lasting synthetic layer of protection and finally dressing of all the trim.

    Included with this package are a series of photos (36 inside and out) that he's free to use to help sell the car and upon delivery, a $100 voucher to perhaps entire the new owner should they look to take the clean up to the next level good towards a select set of my paint correction offerings.

    Here's a mere handful of photos with a Link to the Full Set should you be interested in viewing them all including wheels, tires, and nearly every panel view. Again, it's a super clean car for being a daily driver in Ohio and upwards of 6+ years old.









































    SERVICE INCLUDED:


    • Full Hose/bucket wash & wheel cleaning
    • Full mechanical & chemical decontamination
    • CarPro Hydro 2
    • Wipedown with Beadmaker

    • Hot Shine Tire Dressing

    Re: Chevy Volt Prepped & FOR SALE!

    People underestimate the value that can be had in having a car thoroughly cleaned and well detailed when it comes time to sell their vehicles. Sure people will wash it or run it through a swirl-o-matic and maybe give a quick vacuum, but when it’s had a service such as this it really shows!

    I recently sold my 21 year old civic, daily driver with 183000 miles on it, in 1 day and at a higher price than I thought I’d get. Although I did an AIO before selling, having the exterior, interior as well as engine bay in top shape, blew away the eventual buyer. It was by no means perfect, but what Midwest car 10+ years old, shoot 5+ years old is?

    I’m sure the seller of this vehicle will be receiving many compliments and high “bids” for this car. Nice work on this one TTQ B4U, love reading your threads they’re always quality!!

    Re: Chevy Volt Prepped & FOR SALE!

    Looks great, my wife has the same exact car!
    We bought the car as it came off a lease, so the paint was really beat up.
    Last year I got around to detailing it, wash, IronX, clay, trim, UFF.
    Its a good looking car that now looked awesome.

    Anyhow after spending all day cleaning the car I needed to wash the pads and microfiber towels, so I went to the laundry mat.
    There's a bar next door, so I went in to kill time. The bar tender saw the car and wanted to know if we got a new car (no), new paint job (no) is the car a special edition (no).
    Then the bar tender wanted to know if I wanted to do her car = No.

    Nice job on the car!

    Nice job! Also, a nice feature set of photos to offer the owner for sale purposes. Throw another one in of the "motor" or battery or whatever those newfangled transport machines have in 'em.

    Funny, ssnimrod...no, no, no and NO!

    I'm horrible at getting them anymore. I'm so driven on sticking to the plan and making short-order of time (don't rush but I don't do pics or document things for forum posts, etc. much). I keep saying I will but then I get into things and it's too late.

    yeah.. I hear you. I'm starting to get that way too. Time is money. We are not in the business of showcasing or selling a product.
