Forget about what you think of Dealers deatiling the cars :)

I was just hired to detail the cars at the local saturn dealership. So that means there will be a lot of lucky Saturn owners in staten island. This will not be new cars, they will be cars coming in for service. The customer will pay Saturn for the detail, then Saturn pays me. Basically Saturn gets all the credit for the detail, but who cares when they send you work and pay as well.

I may need to get someone that can use a rotary on a full time basis now.

That sounds like a good deal. A lot of dealerships probably hire outside detailers but as you know, most detailers aren't that good and don' stack up to the work you do.

Saturns have some soft paint so you'll probably get away with just an orbital.

I always put one in the owner's manual when I know I am detailing a car that the owner intends to sell.
