Upon time of arrival if you are going to them or if they come to you doesnt matter. Until you pack up your stuff and leave or Drive the car around to the front or wherever?



Process...

Exterior.

Wash, Clay, Rewash, Dry, Polish, Glaze, Seal, Wax, Tires.

Interior.

Vacuum, Wipe Down, Floor Mats, Windows, Shampoo, Vacuum.



No Engine compartment at this time...



With these above mentioned things, How long does it normally take you to do these processes and how much do you charge?



I charge $120-$150 and it usually takes about 4 hours depending on the amount of swirls I have to remove...

I have been picking up some on the side and I normally get 55 for cars 75 for suvtruck. The services would be



wash

pwc or dacp

vaccum interior,

wipe down interior

clean windows

spot treat dirty areas

dress tires

under fender trim etc



The people I do it for could care less if there car is swirl free, they just want to to shine! ( i guess that a good thing)

It usually takes me about 4.5 - 6 hours depending on condition...that includes the engine though. I charge around $140. The least I ever charged was $110 for a customer who I did two cars for and the most was $225 for a lifted F-350 that I probably pulled 100 pounds of mud off of and polished the heck out of.

It all depends on the condition of the vehicle for me. At the moment I only seem to be doing full-on details, so I'd have to include quite a few extra things on your list, but I guess I could get what you mention done in 5ish hours if I had to. At the moment though I book a whole day out to a client and take however long is needed, which is nice because it means I don't have to bust my *** to get the car done.

Takes me 4.5 to 6 hours. You guys who churn out in 4 hours must be super fast!!



I need better scheduling. The 4.5/6 hours is with a PC though.

:nixweiss I did a Jeep Grand Cherokee yesterday inside and out in about 4 hours...but it was already in excellent condition. If it had been trashed, it would easily have taken 6 hours.

Even 6 hours is fast to me for a trashed out exterior. Maybe my process is wrong or I am too picky. I'll spend an easy 8 hours for polish with a PC; DACP-IP-FPII, then AIO, then wax by hand. Then tires, windows, trim.

Scottwax, do you use a PC or rotary?
