Default Car Detailing!

Well fellas, it's that time again. Summer is quickly approaching, and it's time to get those cars cleaned up. I'll be offering full details, washes, vacuums, etc on a daily basis.

Here is a breakdown of what everything includes, and prices:

- Wash
- Clay bar
- Buff paint
- Seal and Wax paint
- Clean fender wells
- Clean rims
- Clean and detail engine
- Clean all door jambs and trunk jams
- Vacuum interior
- Steam clean carpets and seats if needed
- Wipe down windows
- Clean and condition dash board
- Clean and treat leather seats

Note: Buffing a vehicle can remove 95-100% of compound swirl marks and minor scratches. Buffing takes the longest to do out of everything, and takes the most skill and patience.

Cars

Wash and Vacuum- $25

Wash, Vacuum and wax- $50

Wash, Vacuum, Buff and wax- $150

Full detail (All above included, plus Engine bay detailing, all jams cleaned, windows, shampoo carpets if needed, leather treatment, dash, all interior, and tire shine)- $200

Trucks/SUV's/Van's

Wash and Vacuum- $40

Wash, Vacuum and wax- $80

Wash, Vacuum, buff and wax- $225

Full detail (All above included, plus Engine bay detailing, all jams cleaned, windows, shampoo carpets if needed, leather treatment, dash, all interior, and tire shine)- $275

Headlight restoration is available on any vehicle for $25 per headlight!

Some exceptions on prices can be made depending on vehicle size, or if you want to pick and choose what you want done to the vehicle, there will also be different prices. There is no job too small or too big. I can wash vehicles, fully detail vehicles, or anything in between.

The best way to reach me is by call or text! If I don't answer, leave a voicemail so I'll know who you are and I will get back to you as soon as possible!

Thanks a lot!

I think you are in the ball park depending on your skill level and the condition of the car. You charge the same for a car that needs a single pass and one that needs 2-3 passes to remove swirls?

G,

It's hard to tell what will need only polished, and what will need a 3 step just by looking at a vehicles paint. Some vehicles are much worse than others as far as swirls go, but they may be easier to get out than a car with very few swirls. Therefore I charge the same price across the board for a full detail, or just a buff job. I've been detailing for about 10 years now. In the last 3 years or so I have been working at a body shop as well, and now I'm doing paint and body work as well. Thanks for the input sir! It is very welcomed!

Reckon,

I am readily available I've got a BB AP2 to do mid next week.

Can tell you first hand that Matt is VERY skilled at this. And I am sure others will attest, I set high bar to meet when it comes to the finish and detailing.
