Have a retail detail to do today and I can't hardly believe my eyes, how do ppl let thier cars get like this? It would give me nightmares to drive around in a car this dirty, I don't think it has been polished or waxed since it was painted.



I'm taking a little break so here are some before pics, after's pics soon to come.

thats nothing go check out autopia extreme detail those cars are bad.

the extreme detail contest is awesome. I might enter the Rx7. Its lookin pretty rough....



I also don't understand how people let their cars get that way, especially the inside. I would go nuts if my truck was that dirty. I get pissed if someone so much as gets crumbs in it....

Thats nuthing...you ever see PIMP MY RIDE?

89 Rag 04-25-2005 12:11 AM

I know it isn't as bad as some of the cars out there but still, some ppl just act like they are allergic to cleaning thier vehicle. I enjoy watching some episodes of Pimp My Ride but I think a lot of that show is lost in editing, not unlike most of the other shows along similar lines. Besides, who am I to complain about a $500 detail job on a mild Sunday afternoon! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



After shots...

that car is not that bad at all! Im thinking your a bit spoiled with all those fancy shamcy Barrett jackson cars.



Reminds me of a funny story with my cousin, he calls me and tells me he is detailing cars now and if I had some business to throw his way, I tell one of my friends who owns a body/mechanical shop to give him a shot, so day after he calls me we send him a 5 year old black Suburban, needless to say he doesnt want to detail cars anymore, lol



I cant see someone paying $500 to get a car like that detailed though?

ill take pics of the saturn some time !

89 Rag 04-25-2005 09:25 AM

I probably am spoiled rotten, but I found out a long time ago ppl like to pay a bunch of money for a good detail. I usually charge $200 for an exterior, $100 for an interior and $50 for the E-bay, but since this car was thrashed on the interior with dog hair, and the headliner was blackened from cigarette smoke I uped the cost $100, and the car had an oil problem of sorts so another $50 was tacked on to clean the undercarriage.

what do you use to clean the dash and that sort of stuff?
