Hey where is the best place to start when detailing a car? I usually start with the interior and work my way out. Is there a quicker more efficeint way??
 
I assume that you wash the car then start on the inside?

I always clean the outside do the jambs and trunk jambs, then move inside the car.

Clean the inside up and dress leaving the windows for last.

Then outside and finish up with all the windows.

Ditto!
 
i like to clean the wheels and body first. dry it, and then hit the interior. that way a lot fo the water dries itself out and i dont get water running down while polishing. i dust out everythign in the interior prior to anything. clean out all the crevices and and then start dressing the plastic/leather. then ill hit the windows and vacuum last.

as for the body. everything else goes in order for me

I start with the outside as well. I usualy use UPP on my cars and let it sit for at least an hour. I find this time to be perfect for doing the inside.
 
i usally do the wash along with the tires and wheels and wheel wells (cleaning) then i move the car into the garage. dry everything off . and work on the interior while i make sure the exterior is nice and dry in all the corners and make sure all the drips run out and all the corners are dried. then start on the extereior paint. then do all exterior dressings and windows.
