Most earned for 1 detail...

If you`re willing to discuss this, I`m just curious how much some of you have earned from a single detail. I know a lot of variables are to be considered, but lets just discuss in general.

Me personally, I`ve never really had the desire to spend multiple days on a single detail since this isn`t a sole source of income.

I do know my friend brought in over $1K for a full detail including wetsand, headlight repair, and some road rash repair. It was a Lamborghini, came out brilliant. If i can find pictures, I`ll definitely post them.

I don`t charge the customer anything, just the joy I see out of their faces when I give them their keys back is enough for me

Addictedtobling hit it right on the spot. I love seeing my customers in wow when the detail is finished!!! That is more than money can ever buy . On another note, I did a Jaguar xj6. It was black, and had looked like it had been washed with a brillo pad and saw the swirl o matic about 1000 times. It was a 22 hour job. He was so happy with the finished product, it made my day for weeks . I don`t want to get into any figures but he took care of me very well.

I wouldn`t be so sure how many people would be willing to openly discuss their financial gain to the public. Curiosity isn`t against the rules, but that would probably explain the lack of feedback. Probably a better question discussed in a PM.

With that being said; in all the private details i`ve ever done, they have all been about average or slightly above average as far as payoff goes.

Well once I worked 68 hours on an M3. I charge by the hour.
