    What is the "average" full detail cost, polish paint/apply finish/sealant/wax/ interior, etc,?

    I`ll use my truck as an example (Tacoma). If you want to use another example that would be fine. I live in Maryland, I`m sure the price varies for different parts of the country.

    For an average size sedan, a full detail would be between $225 and $250. No engine BTW.

    wash, clay, two coats polish, two coats wax, wheels, tires, full interior, no engine - 210, leather +20, super dirty +20



    cars 190

    lg sedan/mini truck 210

    fullsize/suv 250



    now getting people to pay me rather than 100 for the local carwash - tough to do...

    going to the car wash and listening to them complain about a terrible job and they want their money back - priceless!!!

    ToyotaGuy:



    Do you perform a 2 day detail? I see you list 2 coats of wax. How long do you allow for curing in between the seperate coats?

    One step polish from me with interior = $350. That`s wash, clay, one polishing step, sealant, wax, do interior, and all the trimmings (dress trim, polish exhaust, seal wheels, etc.)

    Yes. Although I think the dollar is like .90 or something. But ya, it`s Toronto, and Toronto = $.
