S500 Detail

I did this detail for a member here. Washed, Clayed, #83, #80, NXT were what I used.

Quick before and after

JonA4 is infamous around these parts
Wow, nice work. I just finished up 4 Audi's for a local car show, each car took about 3 hours :-( We use a Grey 3M orbital pad, and the 3M polish, which works awesome. After that we use a product called Luster Glaze, which i don't think does anything, but whatever. Its like a $200 option when you buy a new car...

Wow! Good job

Looks like you are forcing someone else to do your job, and you are collecting the $$ lol (third pic )

I am going to have some damage that my dealership did to my car fixed soon, as well as my windsheil and wheels repaired.. then its time for my first professional Detail. How much did you charge for the job?

Well, I picked up my car and found the rear end was hit. It appears that they had a golf cart rear end the damn thing.. the dealership has like over 50 golf carts that they use to drive around customers, etc. They said it didnt happen there, wasnt their fault... yet they are willing to pay 1/2 of the repair cost...

---> They own the body shop they I have to bring it to, so they will actually make $$ from damaging my car

I did those later




And Cayenne, yea, that's some kid that helps me, awesome kid. 16 years old and about to graduate high school.

For a Cayenne, i'd probably charge $250 unless it's black, then $275 Big car, i'd do just the exterior for $220


I don't prefer to do interiors , I actually despise it and turn that work elsewhere if it's remotely bad




and whoever is working on your car should do a good job polishing out the paint, now it's up to you to maintain it, no car washes, only good MF towels, etc
