    I couldnt find anything about prices from people. I dont really know what to charge as im just getting into this.



    Quick Wash Quick Vac and Wax (20-30$)

    Wash Polish Vac and Wax (60-75$)

    Wash Claybar Polish Vac and wax (100-125)

    Wash Claybar Polish Vac Glaze Engine Jams and Wax (125-150)

    Wash Claybar Swirl Remover etc... (150+up depending on oxidation and what not)



    i mean obviously ranges from 2 seater convertable, to black Yukon Denali, i mean i dont know how this is going to be worth it to me depending on the time it takes. Right now im a 1 man team who has help if he needs it.

    I too am a one man show and my prices are lower than my two biggest competitors. This is mainly because my overhead is very low (I`m a college student renting a bay from a used car dealership and it is the deal of a lifetime) and because even though I`m very confident in my abilities and proud of my work, I feel like it would be wrong to charge as much as my competitors due to the fact that I`m in college and not as established as some other guys around here.



    Full details, inside and out start at $120 for a 2-seater and go to a minimum $220 for a minivan or similar. I also offer quick washes for $15-25, quick details for $40-60, and VIP`s (less than a full) for $75-$115. My interior/exterior only details are typically half of the full detail amount, plus $10 for interior or $15-$20 for exterior.



    I also offer pre-paid monthly maintenance packages for anywhere between 2-7 months, and those are valued at 10% of the full detail cost plus $50-$60 per maintenance appointment based on the type of vehicle. Hope this helps!

    Your first stuff is low and your last stuff is probably high.

    Find a need and fill it. It is basically up to you to go out there and find the people who are willing to pay you the prices you have listed to fill their need.
