One of the best detailing jobs I've ever seen...(91 hours of labor) **56K = DEATH**
This is from a guy on the local forums. He will be detailing my 2010 camaro as the first "mod" I do.
He does detailing for a living and wanted a challenge for the year. Here's his story with pics Quote:

Very nice job, but I would have to charge about $5k for that detail job. I wish he was in my area.

Amazing results!! 55 hrs wet sanding is really where his time is spent, Wonder why he went XP PC and not rotary. whatever.... can't argue with the results. I wonder though how much time he could have taken off using a rotary

I have a guy here in Jax who does detailing on the side who is also very good, I would put him right up there with this guy in quality and attention to detail.
He is the reason my 10 yr old car looks as good as it does. He has worked some magic on a few cars I have seen him do.
