If it's a clay bar treatment you need, for me to be happy I would have to hand wash, dry, clay bar, and would also suggest at least a sealant and one coat of natural wax to send you on your way. This is not a swirl removal process although many of the swirls will disappear due to the process. It would take appx. 2 1/2-3hrs. As I said, I am picky. For the service above $120. For just a wash and a clay bar treatment, no sealant or wax your talking about 1 - 1 1/2 hours. How's $65 sound?

Clay bar does not strip off wax. When applied with a lubricant it rides on the surface and only the surface. As the clay catches material that is not part of the naturally smooth surface of the paint it is stripped away. Wax whether natural or synthietic will begin to loose it's ability to protect over time. Sythetics generally last longer that naturals. Of course both vary on the conditions in which the vehicle is kept. Example: If you garage you car, after washing wipe with detailing spray. It will last much longer than if you keep it out doors and never wash it. I think that you must have missed my recommendation. If you would like to strip the wax from your car and I mean stipp the wax so all that remains is paint exposed to the enviroment I can do that too. With a full paint restoration this is exactly what I do. To achieve a flawless finish I must remove all of the previous flawed paint prep and waxing. There is quite a bit more to it than wash dry and wax.
BTW : I'm not sure if the comment was meant to be facetious. But if you don't know what you are talking about it might serve you better to ask.
