I did look at the links and they break the rules period. If you look back at my posts you will see that I have said nothing about your website. I called your intentions into account and wondered why you posted here in the first place. Detail on.

As long as your customers are happy, I guess you will do fine. I would hope, however, that you read through this site and see what other pros are doing. Look at it as a chance to elevate your business to the next level. I'd been in business a full 7 years full time when I found this site and it has made me a better detailer in every way possible.

Everyone just chill, and yell at how Rain is taking over for the next few days.

Garaging a car does not mean it does not need to be polished. There are very few cars of trucks in this area that could not beneit from a good polishing no matter how they are stored. Most swrils are a result of washing not sitting out in the sun. As a detailer I want to restore a cars paint to like new condition and help m customer keep it that way. On the other hand most of the "details" I see from detail shops and dealerships here in Raliegh/Durham include the installation of buffer trails, hollograms snd swrils. Unless your are polishing to correct the defects that almost all cars have you are short changing your customers. I would love to see a full sun pic of a $150 detail!

looks like he has gone back and deleted all his posts, or a mod did.
