    Re: lexus rx, just a quick wash and vacuum turned into a steam all the carpet and try to remove stains

    James - you definitely went above and beyond the $50 detail there. Looks like your steamer is working good for you.

    Also, don't think I have ever mentioned it, but I really like your logo (avatar). Looks great.

    thanks dlb thats my company logo, ballfan, not really, i had extra time and nothing scheduled afterwards, she was very happy with the whole car, the customers satisfaction is why i did it sometimes it makes the biggest difference to go the extra mile, i mean i wouldnt polish the entire car for 50 lol.. i spent a extra hour and half on it and she was amazed..

    Excellent job, especially on the carpets!

    My wife has an RX that generally looks like the before of the interior. I try my best to stay up with it but she uses it like her pickup. Hauls anything she can get inside.

    you will never survive as a detailer charging $50 .. i was there when i started and a few times said "whatever you think is fair" and "i'll hook you up for fifty bucks" ... well they all told there friends i hooked them up for fifty bucks and guess what .. i was known as the cheap detailer not teh rep i was looking for and then when i re quoted my rates biz slowed ... Save yourself and STOP the hookup rates they will bit you in the ace .. I seldomly quote a price over the phone as I will show and tell the client everything i will do and literally make a big story out of it with processes and chemicals until they finally appreciate the entire process then i slap them with the 200-300 cost

    hey there brother flash youve been missing!!

    A.P.A.D, i told her about the head lights well see when she gets them done

    fred, I know exactly what you mean, but hey if its a slow day and i can hook some one up and emphasize it to them that what I did was really above and beyond the 50, shes def. going to think of me next time around, theres been a few jobs i have turned down because they didnt want to pay , so I am known as a quality workmanship person and also a person that takes 2-3 days for all corrections except one step AIO lol but other than that, I just had one guy bring me a 328 m package '10 he wants to get c quartz and a correction and i know it has protection on it and i still see swirls so i kow once i get everything off its going to be swirl city but i told him 250 but he said he wants it done in november so I told him 250 its only good for the summer, november i will tell him 325 or some thing of that nature but he already paid upfront for c quartz, reload, and iron x 1 liter which is all mine and I got the 50 ml bottle of c quartz and i got 20 percent off everything there for he is paying top dollar for everything and the correction
