    Come get your car detailed! - Tampa Racing

    From an inside source apparently.
    I still don`t believe in grit guards.

    *Unfortunately we don`t offer paint corrections nor do we clean engine bays



    From the guy who works there. Not sure it`s really a detail if you don`t do that kind of stuff.

    How long does it take?
    -Most cars take about 2-3hrs for a full detail
    -Suv`s, trucks, & large vans ~3-4hrs

    Wow.... 2-3 hours and they don`t do any kind of paint correction? That is some kind of meticulous wash. And this is with two people going at ti from what I can gather.

    That was posted almost a year ago so it looks like the test was successful enough for them to move ahead.

    Oh well we had a nice run. I always thought it was gonna be Wal-mart that put me out of business. Their the ones that stick their nose into everything.

    Re: Geek Squad Now Detailing ?!?!?!?!?!?!

    Back in the day, I worked as an installer for a Circuit City Roadshop. We vaccumed every car and trunk that we worked on as part of the install procedure as a service to the customers.

    I think back then we charge $40 for a radio install (labor). Most radio installs took less than 30 minutes, and I am being generous with that estimate. Days after Christmas, I bet we installed 100 head units each (me, another installer, and the Roadshop manager). Working at that CC was really weird - enough crazy stuff went on to make a movie (a-la "Waiting") about all the crazy stuff we did and parties we would have after work.

    I couldn`t imagine someone asking us to do a true detail at that place.

    If they attempt to detail, like the terrible job the did on our computer. Don`t worry. They will have enough complaints to put them out of business in no time.

    I highly doubt that this will be successful. I don`t see how a basic detail lasts 2-3 hours for a car. Are they using toothbrushes?
