    Should i charge extra?

    I charge 60.00 for a full interior and exterior detail minus paint correction and 100 for full size vehicles.
    I keep getting asked if I can remove the seats and if its the same price.
    I tell them I do charge extra but they change their minds. Should I charge extra or am I wrong for doing so?
    And how much extra?

    what does full interior consist of? and what is the exterior detail?

    you should charge more as it takes up more time and you get a better reuslt

    How much extra do you tell them it costs?

    Full interior is everything being wiped down and shined, carpet and upholstery cleaned and shampoos, thorough vacuum. Exterior is hand washed, wheel wells cleaned, wheels cleaned and shined, windows cleaned, waxed.
    I tell them its 30.00 extra but they say the other guy charges 40.00 for everything I do plus remove seats.

    I wish I could charge more but in my market everyone is very tight. Not many know about detailing.

    You must live in a very small town. I charge $60 for wash and wax alone. You couldn't beat me with a stick to make me do a full detail at $60!!!

    How do you apply the wax? Spray? DA?

    Of course you should charge more. The time for taking them out plus liability considering you are likely taking out electrical connectors for air bags and possibly other safety equipment built into the seat.
