Have fun! I wish I had the spare $ to do that! Hopefully I will after college!

Do you happen to detail cars for just family/friends or do you do it professionally?

thanks deiselmdx. I know exaclty what its like to want it.. lol ok im just being mean sorry. But yeah, thanks.

ohh boy do i ever want this. when i started detailing it was like 2g for wax... what the, but i said. im gonna have it. I want to know if it truly is the best. so for the past 9-12 months i have saved a ltitle off each paycheck. I can finnaly afford it, and its my b-day in a weekso i though perfect.. i know its only a wax and its petty but its what i wanted when i started and have never lost intrest in it. its hard to explain but boy do i ever want it

family and freinds for the most part. There are 5 drivers and 7 cars in the family so they leep me really busy. I also do good family friends cars, for nothing or cheap. just for fun

i have done jobs for people i dont know but its not what i enjoy.i enjoy doing it as a hobby and seeing freinds happy with the job, not just a way to make a buck

Like i have said in the past. This is my hobby. i do it becasue i love to. It relaxes me. if I start doing it for a living it changes it. its not longer a hobby its a job.. yeah sure there are those who say turn a hobby into ajob,.. but to me that makes it so its no longer a hobby... just a job

Make sure you post up right here! Are u doing the detail right away? I know it gets cold up there, but inquiring minds want to know!!!! Go figure I have an idea of what this stuff can do, but I can't get enough of it.............especially on a painfully prepped red!

touch wood its still ncie for the most part.. opps i just jinxed it.

But my buddies dad owns a coin wash here. He lets us detail in the warmth of it for free. (i even have a key). the best part is that i dont have to worry about getting suds dow the drain, which is a 500 buck fine here. The only issue is that its a 3o min drive away.. oh well beats detailing in the snow....

ok back on topic..yeah i will be doing a full detail of my alitma, and my buddies miata right away. i dont care how cold

I don't think I consider me doing it professionally as a "job"

I love seeing the smile on my customers faces when I get finished or 1/2 done. I go home satisfied, and ready to do it again the next day. Yeah moneys good, but that's the last thing on my mind when doing a clients car. Just like you say it relaxes you; it relaxes me to do it everyday professionally.
