The Carfinders
Maybe the local kid can do an adequate job, but with 45 years of compulsive cleaning experience and a perfectionist’s attitude, I can do it better. So what’s in it for you?
· Work is done in my shop to avoid scratches from blowing sand and the negative effects of heat or cold on both washing and wax application. Don’t let someone wash or wax your car in bright sunlight.
· I only use high quality Meguiars products.
· I am skilled at the use of both low and high speed buffers. “Hand waxing” will not produce as deep a shine.
· I always use the 2 bucket method for washing and the squeegee AND terry towel method for drying. And, yes, I often blow dry the big trucks and SUVs.
· I am an Armorall (vinyl protectant) minimalist. Your tires may not “shine” but you get no greasy overspray all over your car.
· My detailing includes carpet and seating shampoo, gentle compounding and finish coat waxing. Plus windows free of streaking! I do not do engine cleaning.
· Extras: acid rain removal, swirl removal, claying, tint removal, heavy duty compounding. Ask for estimates.
I promise you great results at a fair price. Most vehicles are ONLY $100- $125. Detailing is not just "wax on, wax off." It is a highly skilled process requiring 5 - 7 hours of intense labor. Large trucks and SUVs are extra as are seriously neglected vehicles. And, yes, I will do motorhomes. If you have a quality car, please give it quality care!

WHY NOT MOBILE DETAILING?
* Washing in sunlight leaves harmful water spotting on paint and windows.
* Washing outside greatly increases the possibility of wind borne sand on paint, resulting in scratches.
* Waxing in sunlight causes wax to dry too rapidly, compromising its protection.
* Yes, it may offer convenience, but at what long term cost?
WHY NOT AUTOMATIC CAR WASHES?
* Water may not be filtered well, resulting in scratches.
* Car wash brushes always leave nasty swirl marks (scratches) over time.
* You really want that $6/hour guy with the dirty rags working on your $20 - $50,000 vehicle? Really?

You want to see a dramatic "before and after"? Here's a 1999 Honda Accord with 115k miles which has never had a major detailing. After all these years, there are stains on the carpets that only replacement can cure. And even great detailing can't remove the ripped seam from 6 years of a loving 90 pound lab standing on it!
How about another? Basically nice Mazda 6, 125k, last detailed 5 years ago at time of purchase:
