OK, so this weekend I did my first car. My camera isn't the greatest but its all I had tell me what you think.

And all the products I use.

The pictures really don't do this job justice, the car was absolutely beautiful in person. But I charged $75 for it The guy was happy with it.

Thats a good job. The paint looks really clean. How long did it take you to do? you did the inside of the rims and fenderwells too damn lol

03svtcobra · August 29th, 2009, 03:52 PM

5 1/2 hours start to finish and yes i did the fender wells inside the wheels, under the hood the trunk and anywhere in between for 75 bucks lol most places around here charge like 100 for just a hand wash and vacuum

Go hourly, or charge by the sections i.e. engine bay, full interior, exterior, wheels, etc. You are workin too hard for too little. May as well work in a sweat shop at those rates. It would be a steal to pay 125.00-150.00 for everything you did.

Sub out that Windex w/ an automotive glass cleaner - just my $.02. The best ones are Stoner's and Rain-X, both available at Wal Mart.
