    Polish a test spot only on their car... then they might see a difference..

    Detailing only one of their wheels is also fun

    Re: Polished vehicle not noticed!

    I guess I'm fortunate. I detailed my parents Rav4 and they can't stop talking about how good it looks. My mother-in-law and her aunt noticed my wife's Rav4 and they mention how great it looks and want me to do theirs also.

    Of course I spent about 7 hours at my parents house detailing their car so they know how much work I put into it.

    Re: Polished vehicle not noticed!

    I spent five hours doing interior work on my wife's 2014 Kia. EVERYTHING was touched/cleaned/dressed, including door seals

    My mother-in-law noticed when she got in it. Women tend to notice interiors more, IME.

    Exterior paint, whole different story.

    About the only time I've gotten more than the "clean car, dude" was when I took an oxidized '67 VW Bug and brought some shine back to it. People really did notice. One guy even asked the owner, "Car looks good; was it polished recently?"

    Re: Polished vehicle not noticed!

    Detailing is so educational.Educate the customer then close the sale.its not that they don't care there not clear what a proper wash or detail is.I get all the time a customer yelling how much for a wax across the parking lot.They think wax is all they need,until you show them a 50/50 demo then they ask when can you do it.Thats the downside to detailing always educating the customer.

    Yeah, I'm a car watcher. I'll give a second look at an impeccably detailed Honda Fit before a dirty Porsche.

    A coworker just bought a 2017 Chevy Z71 in black. What do I do? I go look at it and use my phone light to look for swirls and sure enough there are some faint swirls already.

    Do the interior.

    Everyone will notice, even with a layer of salt sitting on the exterior.

    I trimmed all my body hair by, at least 75%, and my wife hasn't noticed!
