very true... but those have dealt with me or know me know I am willing to go a 'reasonable' distant for very little. But that plus loosing another customer due to travel time, it's difficult.

Roo, I am just glad that we bottomed this out. Words get around quick and I have gotten many referrals from folks that may or may not have worked with me in the past. So customer satisfaction is VERY important to me.

Thanks for the bump!

Depending on the type of wax (durability) you use... but should be at least once a month. As for clay bar, just run your hand down the body panels. If you feel bumpy after a good wash, it's time. It's so hard to say and it really depends on your driving condition and where you park most of the time. Go by feel!

- I know you aren't doing PDR as a service, but are you practicing or intend to gain experience in that area?
- Be Krinkov's apprentice and learn clearbra'ing
- learn tinting or something


Cause man if you could do all that and detailing, you could be like secret agent man "automotive awesomness consultant" and just fly around and perform your services at a several hundred dollar/hour rate for some dude's garage full of exotics

Thanks for the suggestions man. I definitely have the intention to pick up PDR again. But the way it looks, not any time soon (way too busy). Clear bra and tinting are possible but long shot. We have folks like Jeremy and Vince from Omega Tints already.
