    I plan to.

    Keep in mind that the people that paying this kind of money aren`t the mom`s driving Volvo wagons that have Cheerios all over the back seat or the daily driver 335xi. These are just trophies to the buyers. I`d say the highest mileage I have seen in the past year was 10,000 - a Ferrari F50 which smashed into a guard rail on the Merritt in CT in August.



    So please don`t think I am talking a $250 customer up to a $700 ticket. I am not Zig Ziglar, I just wouldn`t take the $250 work.

    I have the same problem here in Cyprus.Most "detailers" (if i can call them like this) have very low prices.The problem is that customers cannot see the difference between of just applying some compound or polish with a rotary polisher(sometimes with a modified grinder-YES THEY USE THEM A LOT) that fill the car holograms and hide them with a wax or glaze until the next car wash, and of the real detailing work that gives to the car what really needed to.I had that experience on my own car before i find out the magic world of detailing.When i bought it it was full of holograms because of bad rotary polishing.When i took it back to the dealer to repair it,he done the job in 30 minutes : ).A rotary polisher,a compound,and a paste wax.The results were worst than before.I tried to take it to another "professional" and i had the same results.So i decided to fix it by my self and also make detailing my job.

    Because of that situation (customers cannot see the difference,low prices) i am planning to take some customers that they are happy to give more money for their very expensive cars (social problems ) just for the show,just for doing something different from other people(oh those social problems ).Why you don,t try this?
