Craigs list oppurtunity

[whitejavaS500]

I knew a guy many years ago that had a very profitable detail business. They actually did a very good job. One day I see like 75 unmarked and marked cruisers at Dunkin donuts and I then seen helicopters in the sky.. I knew someone was getting busted. Come to find out it was this detail shop owner and they were filling trunks as they were cleaning. I knew they had way to many out of state cars in their shop and something was going on.



They had high prices for the average person, and no one could understand how they were getting everyone to pay the high prices. Surprise!



I wish I could tell the whole story, but I can't on the internet...

PM it to me :dance?

A friend of mine has a used car lot . Last Saturday I went to the lot to visit him. He sells cheap cars so he doesent spend much money on his cars, mostly making sure that they run good . He had a guy buffing cars a Monte Carlo, and a Taurus. This guy was useing a black foam pad and a pink polish with a rotary. You guyes wont believe me but he did both cars in 35 minutes. After that he just had the lot kid just wash the polish splater off with soap and water. Both cars look better and I guess thats all that maters. Ive never seen a guy buff so fast .It seem that thats what dealers want, a quick buff, some simple green on the interior, and your done.

I believe you. A few years ago I was looking for a PT job while going to school and the owner of the business I went and interviewed with did 99% dealer details and he asked me how long it took me to get an exterior looking good. I told him between 3-8 hrs depending on the condition and such. He told me that he expected me to get through 4-6 cars a day in a 6 hrs shift. He told me that he had a 1 step product that left he finish swirl free no matter how bad the condition and I could get through a whole Yukon in an hour and a half tops inside and out. I basically laughed at him and told him that he didn't know a damn thing about detailing if he thought a 1 step completely corrected the paint to the point that I did in my 3-8 hrs and he told me to get out. Needless to say, all of his regular customers, not dealerships, are now going to other detailers, many to me, because they realized that all their swirls and scratches came back after a wash or two. hahahaha, hack detailers piss me off!



True car enthusiasts listen to why I charge what I charge and they have no problem paying me my rate because they know I'm not going to simply cover over the paint problems and they spread the word to their friends which makes you feel great!
